How countries achieve development can be a contentious issue. According to the United Nations Millennium Development Goals established in September 2000, the five most important factors that lead to a country’s development are, in the following order: eradicating extreme poverty and hunger, achieving universal primary education, promoting gender equality and empowering women, reducing child mortality, and improving maternal health. These goals, adopted by the international community, recognize…

interconnectedness of these NGO’s and the UN is a complex one but an effective use of services when helping refugees and others (Lamy Pg. 252). In an article from the Inter Press Service, Silvia Boarini wrote on the Syrian Refugees being aided by UNRWA or United Nations Relief and Works Agency, though not very successfully.

When you ask anyone, they will all tell you they are in favour of equal rights for homosexuals. Then you get to gay marriage, and that is when all the talk about equality stops.
