Main objective is to end poverty

8 Goals to be achieved in 15 years 

1.       Eradicate extreme hunger
2.       Achieve universal primary education  
3.       Promote gender equality and empower women 
4.       Reduce child mortality 
5.       Improve maternal health 
6.       Combat hiv/aids malaria and other diseases
7.       Ensure environmental sustainability 
8.       Global partnership for development 

UNDP are working to fulfill the goals 

Due to the work done the number of people living on less than 1.25$ a day dropped to half

Kids that do not go to school down by almost half

Lifesaving treatments increased by almost 15x times

However, over 800 Million people are still living on less than a dollar per day

In September 2015 a new set of goals are made which are called the stable development goals

The main purpose of the goals is to complete MDGs work and end poverty as well as protect the environment 

Bahrain is committed with the United Nations from the year 2000 to complete the objectives that were laid out. Furthermore Bahrain has also created the vision of 2030 for the purposes of tackling the issue and achieving the MDGs goals

The most crucial goal for Bahrain is to end poverty. Keeping in mind that this will eliminate any future demonstrations as Bahrain faced this issue in 2011.
