The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide time-bound, measurable global frameworks designed to guide countries towards improved human well-being and sustainable development through international cooperation. Identify all possible correct pairs from the list given below.
1. Time period for SDGs – 2015-2030
2. Time period for MDGs – 2000-2015
3. Number of goals in SDGs – 17
4. Number of goals in MDGs – 8
1, 2, 3, 4
The Millennium Development Goals were adopted after the United Nations Millennium Summit and the Millennium Declaration of 2000. They were followed by the Sustainable Development Goals, adopted at the United Nations Sustainable Development Summit in 2015 as part of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
Checking each pair:
1. SDGs run from 2015 to 2030, so pair 1 is correct.
2. MDGs ran from 2000 to 2015, so pair 2 is correct.
3. The SDGs contain 17 goals with 169 targets, so pair 3 is correct.
4. The MDGs contained 8 goals, such as eradicating extreme poverty and hunger, so pair 4 is correct.
Since all four pairs are accurate, any choice that leaves out one or more of them, such as 1, 3 or 2, 4 or 2, 3, 4, is incomplete. The set that includes every correct pair is the full list 1, 2, 3, 4.
Hence, 1, 2, 3, 4.
