Millennium development goals- 8 goals and started in 2000 and went until 2015: 3 to promote gender equality and empower women; 6 to combat hiv/aids, malaria, and other diseases; 7 to ensure environmental sustainability; and to develop a global partnership for development. 4 in perry and potter: birth rate, fertility rate, stillbirth. Infant, maternal, neonatal, perinatal mortality rate most are preventable with access and use of prenatal care services. People aren"t haven"t kids until around 35 because oh the changing world and women"s only role isn"t having a child anymore. And there are repercussions to waiting to have children late. But you normally have higher education, and higher income and better prenatal care. There is inequalities in health care and that can be seen with more black deaths and white deaths in the us.
