Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: D
The Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) were eight global goals for the period 2000-2015.
Among the given statements:
A. Eradicating extreme poverty and hunger - MDG 1
B. Improving maternal health - MDG 5
D. Promoting gender equality and empowerment of women - MDG 3
C is not stated as a separate MDG in this form. MDG 7 was "Ensure environmental sustainability," not specifically "addressing climate change." E, ensuring energy security for all, was also not one of the eight MDGs.
Therefore, the correct answer is A, B and D only.
