the top three goals are as follows:
- Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger
- Achieve universal primary education
- Develop global partnership for development

Syria had the same top three goals in different order, while India, Brazil, and
the United States had Eradicating poverty, combating disease and achieving
environmental sustainability as their top three (not in order).

change makers, tweeting that “Today the US renews its commitment to achieving
world progress” on the MDGTimes Twitter Account. The

world.

their delegates. Frustration of the Syrian citizens was the most prevalent with

terrorism. “People think at the end of
the day that a man is the only answer to fulfilment. Actually a job is better
for me”, one delegated Tweeted on the MDGTimes Twitter Account.
