Among the Millennium Development Goals discussed so far, for me, goal 1 should be given the most attention first as for now. It is because I believe that ending hunger and poverty will then make the other 7 goals (Universal Education, Gender Equity, Child Health, Maternal Health, Combat HIV/AIDS, Environmental Sustainability, Global Partnership) eventually develop too.
I feel more sympathetic to the people especially the children who suffer hunger and experience too much poverty than anything else. Honestly, after seeing clips and videos about babies and kids affected of the poverty spreading in the world, you would think you felt your heart twisted strongly.
'Development' in this goal (eradicate extreme poverty and hunger) will take time. But with this goal developed, education can then be easily attained, also with the equality among fellowmen, solutions to health problems and even environmental issues.
Ideas into reality, that's how you define it.
Communication media establishes new forms of interaction and new kinds of social relationships between individuals.
The importance of relating communication, through which individuals incorporate it into their lives and day-to-day activities, was basically clear. The purpose of the development of communication through media is to affect the individuals' modes of experiencing the best of the world and their ways of relating to themselves and others.
Of course, social interaction was not restricted to those forms of mediated communication which became increasingly common. With succession of media institutions based on print, and eventually on electronic forms of codification and transmission, it became possible for more and more individuals to acquire information through mediated forms of interaction. These were increasingly important as a success of informing individuals about events that took place in distant locales and as a way of creating, reproducing, and transmitting the symbolic content of tradition.
