all nations at the
1990 World Summit
for Children.

by one third of the
1990 levels, or to

respectively,
whichever is less.
2. Reduction of the
1990 maternal mortality rates by half.
3. Reduction of severe
and moderate malnutrition among under5 children by half of
the 1990 levels.
4. Universal access

of excreta disposal.
5. Universal access
to basic education
and completion of
primary education
by at least 80% of
