In the year 2000 the United Nations set out a goal to stop hunger poverty and unfair living to people of the world not just the United States. This idea was called the Millennium Development Goals (MDG). Upon taking on a task such as this the UN wanted to break down goals in sections of eight to better categorize them to use every resource they had to make this plan possible. Not every catgeroy had the same plan put in place and for that exact reason these goals where not something to be done over night, hence how the name of the idea started with millennium. The UN has also been known for their work to gather its members and countries as one to work to accomplish its goals of maintaining peace and security, they wanted to protect human rights by providing humanitarian assistance, and assisting economic and social development throught the world. This gives us a better idea of what MDG project is for and how it was created. One MDG that can be met through technological development, innovation or implementation is the second of eight which is Universal Education. This goal was important because it was believed that through education, future society members will have the ability to reduce or put a stop to world poverty and help to accomplish worldwide peace and security. This goal can be met technonglical delvopment by the introduction of computers to countries that don’t have access to these tools like other countries would. The additions of smart computers would give better recsources to the students as well as the teachers that are teaching, thus meeting the MDG of unvieral education. A goal such as this one would not need to innovation but would need to be implemented. A goal such as this would have to be an idea that is brough... ... middle of paper ... ... the other person knows. Universal education intergrates the world because it makes us be looked at as one. What is meant by this is that the MDG is a mission that is sought out by the UN because they have the resources to do it. Such as the type of education that most of them had reviced compared to the education of those in which they are trying to help. It cant be said forsure that other countries are not better of in terms of education for their citizens but in universal education, this is something that is free to people in countries and free to people in other countries, which tells the UN that although education is out there for the pulic it is not something that everyone can or has been taking advantage of. With the impletation of computers and the innovation of free education we can intrgarte the world and society to a body of people where all are educated.
