According to the world bank there has not been much progress for the millennium development goals since 2000, but ending poverty and hunger has had a small amount of progress. To help, rich countries should could be informed of what is happening in poor countries and could donate money for more hospitals, health, food, water and education. This could help poor countries have an easier healthier lifestyle.

The millennium goals haven't had much progress and might not achieve the goals by 2015 but they have try they have helped many people that have needed medication, food, water and education.

I thought that the video comes for a true place and just because they have not done what is expected they still have done some process so it's better then it was. Every little bit helps so I think we should still keep pushing for these goals.

This video shows how lucky we are to have clean water and food. It shows us how we are lucky to have money and lots more things.

1 of the millennium goals (goal 3. Promote gender equality and empower women) achieved part of the goal (in some countries) which was get girls to be allowed in primary schools, they achieved this in 2005, the other goals are doing Pretty well but they will probably not be fully achieved in all countries by 2015. Australia should appreciate what we have, we're very lucky to have a lot of money and be the 19th wealthiest country in the world.

Dear Mr. Waugh,
The video was interesting. It is amazing that so many people die because of hunger, and most of the people are in Africa. I don't think they will achieve the Millennium Development goals by 2015, because they still have some important goals left to complete. I think we are one of the luckier counties that have fresh water and health foods.

The millennium goals will probably be not achieved by 2015. There has been progress though. I think that we are lucky country because we have safe food and water, no wars and not many diseases. By Serif

I know that the millennium development goals won't be accomplished by 2015 but I still think it is great how the UN are still trying so hard to make these countries the same quality has these first world countries. Rich countries should be spreading to other countries bout these issues and telling them to donate to help out with hospitals and clean water. We should be helping with world hunger and poverty, give woman more power and help woman give birth.
