AQA GEOG4B 19th JUNE 2015

could someone please explain SDGs?? im bit confused thanks

'Sustainable Development Goals' - they're basically going to replace MDGs, when they're due to 'expire' at the end of 2015.
Same as MDGs, but more focus on the environment I guess, and sustainability

Tbh many of my points are Vision 2030 schemes, but I didn't want to give too much away :biggrin:

In terms of synoptic links perhaps? - Aid? How important should aid be compared to trade for Kenya to develop and meet MDGs.

globalisation through technology and transport, something that the mdg's didn't implement in any of the goals and tendency for globalisation could help form international links that would benefit kenya as a whole

I agree defiantly links to 2030 and SDG, maybe you could mention the disadvantage of having the same goals for all countries and the potential benefits of vison 2030 as it is specified to improvements within kenya rather than goals for all countries to meet

Don't forget that Vision 2030 is a little bit biased :smile:

. Also, if you look at the map for the V2030 of where these changes are being implemented, you'll see there's huge disparity in the investments (with most being allocated to the urban areas of Nairobi/Mombasa etc, and a total disregard for the North)

Some hard ones some easy ones. Who knows hopefully below normal grade boundaries. 28 for a c I'm hoping. Some of them questions like the geographical significance did confuse me :frown:
