Committee: UNDP
Country: France
Topic: end world poverty and achieve millennium goals by 2012

All around the world man countries are poor and much undeveloped. That’s why in 1965 they made the UNDP United Nation Committee. The committee was made to help countries get out of poverty and get clean energy and boost their economy. They did this by making the millennium development goal. The goal was basically made in three steps 1. To reduce the proportion of people living with less than a dollar a week. 2. Get a lot of jobs and work for people either women or young people. 3. Reduce the amount of people that suffer from hunger. The ten top poorest countries in the world are in Africa and that’s where the millennium goals hit more in Africa and Middle East.

France has always been a very good country and has never been in poverty. The only time France had a problem with poverty was in WWII. After that they had developed a strong economy. But know there having financial issues because many immigrants from Africa and Portuguese have come to France and they don’t have many jobs or houses where they can live and work. Many of these people live in the ghettos and live with less than 2 dollars. Many of these immigrants come with families and cause more problems.

France thinks that a good way to reduce poverty is to make a program in where they get people to build houses buildings and other projects there government makes them to do. The other solution is for counties to send money to these top ten poor countries to make them build hospitals schools and to teach people to use clean energy like solar, wind, water power.
