aiming to halve world poverty by the year 2015. In 2000, the millennium year, 189 United Nations member states, including Australia, gathered together aiming to halve world poverty by the year 2015. So our world leaders came up with a plan; a blueprint for a better world. The plan was made up of 8 life-changing goals that would bring about freedom from poverty for some of the world's poorest people; to create a world where poverty was history. These goals became the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)
