Abstract

When world leaders signed the UN Millennium Declaration in 2000, they were united around one common agenda—to eradicate poverty. The leaders agreed to meet eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015; goals that are not only about extreme poverty, but also about education, maternal health, child mortality, public health, environmental sustainability, and biodiversity. The MDGs emphasise the need for an integrated partnership approach, and MDG 6 aims to combat major pandemics and to set the target for reversing the global incidence of tuberculosis by 2015.
