What’s the connection?

• As the development cable model (right) shows, development is a multi-faceted process

• At its core is economic development, but to achieve real progress social, political, environmental and personal development is also needed.

• Recognising the complex nature of development is why development is often measured using an index, which combines a range of data

• Indices are considered more accurate than single data points such as GDP per capita.

The Human Development Index (HDI)Life expectancy at birth + Literacy rate +

Enrolment rate + GDP per capita PPP

Physical Quality of Life Index (PQLI)Life expectancy + Literacy rate +

Infant Mortality rate

Add place marks to show: •1) Examples where your MDG has improved: Education, health and poverty •2) Examples where your MDG has got worse: Education, health, poverty •3) Information about 3 indicators in China, India, Brazil, USA, Eritrea

Example of work from the UN • Eritrea, East Africa Located in the southern region

of the Sahel Desert therefore experiencing periodic drought

Eritrea has focused on the development of its gold mines as a source of revenue and economic growth

HDI: 0.381, ranked 182 of 187 countries 2/3rds of the country suffered from hunger in 2012

How have they done it? • IMPROVED FOOD SECURITY DUE TO A NEW MICRO DAM, PART OF

A $1.2 MILLION UNDP FOOD SECURITY PROJECT IN ERITREA

• Eritrean Ministry of Agriculture and UNDP invested US$1.2 million in two micro dams

• Capacity of 1million cubic meters

• Has led to more land being farmed

• Greater use of irrigation

• Each dam feeds 1200 households and 6000 people

• Female headed house holds are provide with the same amount of arable land to ensure gender parity.

• Children have better nutrition rates and can go to school more consistently.

1) How have the MDGs been successful in some places?

2) ‘The MDGs promised much but delivered little’

• To what extent do you agree or disagree with this?

3) How can we best achieve development beyond 2015?Rio 20: ‘SDGs should be limited in number, aspirational and easy to communicate

http://www.theguardian.com/global-development/2013/may/30/un-end-extreme-poverty-2030-goals

What should the goals be: Choose which ones should go into the SDGs and justify: You can use and adapt the existing ones or include new ones such as: • Thriving lives and livelihoods • Sustainable food security • Secure sustainable water • Clean energy • Healthy and productive ecosystems • Sustainable societies • Gender Equality

4) What might threaten the development of SDGs in the future?

• Climate change • Population growth • Financial crises • Energy insecurity • Food insecurity • Population growth • Migration

Take each of these global issues

Discuss and give examples of how they could hinder

progress of SDGs
