Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote
well-being for all at all ages
![]() |

Ensuring
healthy lives and promoting the well-being for all at all ages is essential to
sustainable development. Significant strides have been made in increasing life
expectancy and reducing some of the common killers associated with child and
maternal mortality. Major progress has been made on increasing access to clean
water and sanitation, reducing malaria, tuberculosis, polio and the spread of
HIV/AIDS. However, many more efforts are needed to fully eradicate a wide range
of diseases and address many different persistent and emerging health issues.
By 2030, reduce the global maternal mortality ratio two less than 70 per 100000 live births.
ReplyDeleteBy 2030 end preventable deaths of newborns and children under age of 5 years with all countries aiming to reduce neonatal mortality to at least as low as 12 per 1000 live births and under five mortality to at least as low as 25 per 1000 live births
ReplyDeleteGoal 3 seeks to ensure health and well-being for all, at every stage of life. The aim is to improve reproductive and maternal and child health; end the epidemics of HIV/AIDS, malaria, tuberculosis and neglected tropical diseases; reduce non-communicable and environmental diseases; achieve universal health coverage; and ensure universal access to safe, affordable and effective medicines and vaccines.
ReplyDeleteTowards that end, world leaders committed to support research and development, increase health financing, and strengthen the capacity of all countries to reduce and manage health risks.
ReplyDeleteWe live in the most advanced age of science and medicine; yet preventable disease, untreated drug & alcohol abuse, preventable birth defects, and avoidable traffic & industrial accidents still kill millions of people each year. Where a person lives or how much money she has should never keep her from receiving the medical attention she needs. Let's make sure that every person, child or adult, gets the resources they need to live a long and healthy life.

ReplyDeleteDespite determined global progress, an increasing proportion of child deaths are in sub-Saharan Africa and Southern Asia. Four out of every five deaths of children under age five occur in these regions.
ReplyDeleteChildren born into poverty are almost twice as likely to die before the age of five as those from wealthier families.
Children of educated mothers—even mothers with only primary schooling—are more likely to survive than children of mothers with no education.
Promoting well-being involves understanding and addressing child, youth, and caregiver functioning in physical, behavioral, social, and cognitive areas. A focus on well-being should be integrated into all aspects of child welfare services. Particularly in the field of child abuse prevention, addressing child and family needs related to well-being is a critical part of reducing risks and increasing safety and protective factors. This section presents information on protective factors and child, youth, parent, and caregiver well-being. It also offers resources about marriage, fatherhood, and parenting, as well as building the capacity of programs and systems to promote well-being.

IM-12-04: Promoting Social and Emotional Well-Being for Children and Youth Receiving Child Welfare Services
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Administration for Children and Families, Children's Bureau (2012)
Around 1.25 million people died from road traffic accidents in 2013, an average of 3,400 each day. In addition, tens of millions of people are injured or disabled each year from traffic accidents, with children, pedestrians, cyclists and older people among the most vulnerable. Halving the number of global deaths and injuries from road traffic accidents by 2020 is an ambitious goal given the dramatic increase in the number of vehicles, which nearly doubled between 2000 and 2013.
