The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) consist of 8 indivisible and interdependent goals, divided into 18 targets, and expressed in 46 measurable, time-bound indicators. PAHO's mandate is to respond to the Goals, Targets and Indicators that have a direct bearing on health, yet the improvement of the health conditions in the Region requires the creation of alliances with other sectors such as education, the environment, social development, trade and economics, that encompass all areas of development.
