Abstract

In the year 2000, 189 nations of the world formulated the plan called "Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)" and came together to face the future that had to do with famines, droughts, wars, plagues, poverty and chronic problems in the world. It was known that we had enough food to feed the world, but that it was not being shared; that they had medicines for HIV and for other diseases, but they were very expensive; that earthquakes and floods were inevitable, but not the high number of deaths. Ambitious plans were made, as to eradicate them in a few years. The agreement of the nations for the Sustainable Development Goals (ODS) 1 arises in 2015.
