Definition of Sustainable Development Goals

Goals 1: NO POVERTY

SDG 1 is proposed to eliminate poverty among people all over the world.

How it can be achieved

1. Poor governments will be responsible for changing political priorities and allocating spending, and finding ways to mobilize their own resources at home, but we must find a way to be disingenuous here where rich governments are. They want to share responsibility, but not burden, power and control the resources poor countries need.
2. There should be national implementation plan among all governments. These objective must be clear and binding, with a term of three to five years. They must ensure that citizens and civil society are fully involved in achieving these goals and that participatory monitoring systems are in place so that citizens can be held accountable to the government.
3. Private funding is required and the willingness of companies to participate in the SDGs is welcome, but to date there have not been enough checks and balances to ensure that public-private projects protect the rights of others, act for the good of the community or provide better service to the community.
