Goal 3: Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages

Ensuring healthy lives and promoting the well-being for all at all ages is essential to sustainable development. Significant strides have been made in increasing life expectancy and reducing some of the common killers associated with child and maternal mortality. Major progress has been made on increasing access to clean water and sanitation, reducing malaria, tuberculosis, polio and the spread of HIV/AIDS. However, many more efforts are needed to fully eradicate a wide range of diseases and address many different persistent and emerging health issues.

Targets:

  • Reduce global maternal, neonatal and child mortality rate.

  • End epidemics of tropical diseases.

  • Increase average life span by promoting mental health and well-being.

  • Strengthen the prevention and treatment of substance abuse.

  • Reduce number of deaths and injuries from road traffic accidents.

  • Provide education and information on reproductive health-care services.

  • Advocate for affordable access to health coverage.

  • Reduce pollution to minimize deaths and illnesses.

  • Aid in implementing the World Health Organization Framework Convention on Tobacco Control.

  • Support medical research and development to provide vaccines and medicines for all.

  • Increase the sustainability of the health workforce.

  • Strengthen the capacity for early waring, risk reduction and management of national and global health risks.

The Italian team has made an awareness campaign against alcohol abuse. The  team has also worked on mathematical aspects related to drinking: we have searched for information on the web on how alcohol concentration in blood lowers in time after drinking, so we have elaborated a mathematical funtion that could fit the data we found. We have found that alcohol concentration decay in time is exponential and it decreases of about 30 % each hour.
