NEW YORK puma creepers beige australia , Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Bill Gates, co-chair of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, said here Wednesday that he is optimistic about the progress toward global health and the sustainable development goals.
He said at a forum held under the "Goalkeepers" event that the progress can be further accelerated, saying "the last 16 years have been wonderful and the next 15 years we can do more."
Gates cited the major trends which have led to this progress. Among them is the frontier of science that is moving faster today than ever before, with more people in college, more research and more articles being published.
"This is where we get new drugs, new vaccines puma creepers white australia , more ways to get in touch with health workers doing everything they need to do, this is a key reason why life today is so different than 200 years ago," he said.
At the forum Gates demonstrated the MetaFridge, a newly developed refrigerator which can keep vaccines at the required low temperatures for five to nine days without any power. It targets those children in remote areas of developing countries who do not have access to vaccines due to delivery problems.
"We are at a defining moment in the history of global development where we can either collectively show resolve and get the job done, or turn our backs on human suffering and inequity," he said. "I believe when people know about the progress we've already made, they'll be inspired to finish the job."
Goalkeepers 2017 was preceded by the Goalkeepers Global Goals Awards dinner on Sept. 19 to honor outstanding activists who have demonstrated a positive impact on people's lives puma creepers pink australia , and who inspire others to accelerate progress towards the development goals.
Several announcements were made during the event, signifying further international commitment across sectors to achieving the global goals. In addition to the Gates Foundation's new 200-million-U.S.-dollar contribution to the Global Financing Facility, a platform supporting women's and children's health in developing countries, four other multisector "Accelerators" were announced at the event, which involve women's movements, community health workers, digital financial inclusion and child undernutrition.
These events followed the release last week of "Goalkeepers: The Stories Behind the Data puma creepers bordeaux australia ," a new report by Bill and Melinda Gates that uses data projections from the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation at the University of Washington to forecast future scenarios for 18 indicators of the Global Goals, including child and maternal mortality, HIVAIDS, stunting, family planning and access to financial services.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22 (Xinhua) -- The U.S. state of Missouri looks to expand trade and investment cooperation with China www.creepersaustralia.com , which is "a key economic partner," Missouri governor said.
"Missouri has a 4.4-billion-U.S.-dollar trade agreement with China to facilitate expansion of trade and investment. We want to increase that number," Eric Greitens told Xinhua in an email interview on Thursday, ahead of his four-day trip to China.
The trip, which starts on Monday, will be Greitens' first international trade mission since he became Missouri governor early this year, during which he is expected to visit several cities and meet with Chinese business leaders.
"We want this trip to show the many reasons why businesses puma creepers rihanna australia , investors and students should call Missouri their American home," Greitens said.
Explaining why he has chosen to visit China, the governor said the country is "a key economic partner for Missouri" and one of the Midwestern U.S. state's top export partners.
China is now Missouri's third largest trading partner and export market. In 2016, Missouri's exports of goods to China reached 1.8 billion U.S. dollars, up 76 percent from 10 years ago, while its exports to the rest of the world grew only 9 percent, figures from the U.S.-China Business Council show.
Missouri's exports to China supported 17 puma creepers australia ,200 American jobs in 2015, the council said.
"Our delegation's goal for this trip is to strengthen our trade relationship and let China's business community know that Missouri is a top state to partner with and invest in," Greitens said.
The governor listed a wide array of industries that he believed China and Missouri share interest in growing, including manufacturing, health sciences, health services, technology vans classic slip on australia , transportation and logistics, energy, automotive, financial and professional services, and biotechnology.
Great opportunities can thus arise for Missouri and Chinese firms to grow and invest with each other, he said.
China and Midwestern U.S. states have kept strengthening their economic and trade ties, with Chinese enterprises investing more than 1.1 billion dollars in Missouri over 16 years vans slip on australia , according to the Chinese Consulate General in Chicago. The consulate covers nine states in the Midwest, including Missouri.
The state has been working to improve its business environment, the governor said, by cutting red tape to simplify and streamline regulations, and pursuing tort reform, among other efforts.
"We want China's business leaders to know that investments made in Missouri will have a solid return," Greitens said.
Also high on his agenda in China is his bid to strengthen Missouri's educational relationship with Chin
