There are 17 Sustainable Development Goals that the United Nation has implemented in order to improve the lives of people and the planet. The goals work to move forward in bettering people and the resources available currently without jeopardizing how future generations will access and use their resources for survival. The 17 goals don't just look at the next few years, they look at the big picture and include everyone, everywhere. In order to attain these goals, it is important to look directly at the global aspect of health because it will result in new forms of social organization and interaction to grow the economy. Unfortunately, the Sustainable Development Goals are not cheap to fund, these goals cost a total of 5-7 trillion dollars each year to keep moving forward. The United Nations has turned to looking for investment opportunities to make up for the almost 3 trillion they are short. Luckily for the United Nations, the overall global income is increasing, making more people susceptible to invest their money into these goals to help make a better future for the people and planet.

Campaign to end fistula

 * This UNFPA-led global campaign works to prevent obstetric fistula, a devastating and socially isolating injury of childbirth, to treat women who live with the condition and help those who have been treated to return to their communities. The campaign works in more than 40 countries in Africa, the Arab States and South Asia.

Addey Olson's Contribution:

The leader of the campaign to end fistula, Erin Anastasi, decided to start this campaign in 2003 in hopes of ending deaths of new mothers after developing fistula. This campaign is now active in over 50 countries working not only to prevent fistula, but also to give fistula survivors a sense of reforming their life after overcoming this burden. Nearly 800 women in Africa and Asia die after childbirth and more than 2 million women all across America are living with fistula. The campaign focuses mainly on providing training and funds to support women living with fistula, and also programs aimed towards survivors. The campaign is also looking at ways to prevent fistula from developing in general by providing medical supplies and technical guidance and support.
