Progress the countries responding have made it easier in avoiding more social and economic downturn meaning they are avoiding it, but the conditions of the labor markets are still bad in a lot of countries and are threatening the progress that has been made all ready which means that they are having to keep going back because it just keeps getting worse.

World Hunger- Goal C- Cut the proportion of people who suffer from hunger from 1990-2015 in half. Prior to the staple food price many areas were well on their way to meeting their goal the price increase has actually increased number of people suffering from hunger. Progress has been made but just not enough to reach the goal Target is to half between 1990 and 2015 proportion of people whose income is less than $1 a day. 

Poverty- Extreme poverty is when people make $1 a day.The UN has invested in a program to bring together farmers and food sellers which has made it easier to make food and makes it cheaper. It also makes more jobs. They are also trying to make rights for works so they get the same pay and it makes it safer for them to go to work. The goal is for a success and effort to compete this target so it doesn't go to waste.
