meeting the unique necessities of Africa, and fortifying the United Nations. The Road

address responsibilities by governments all through the world to do more to decrease
neediness and hunger, and to handle infirmity, sex imbalance, absence of training,
admittance to clean water and natural corruption. Hence three of the eight objectives
