Read the comic book: "Score the Goals"

24 January 2011|News

With only four years until the 2015 deadline for achieving the MDGs, the challenge remains to make children fully aware of them and of the important role they can play in achieving them

Ten famous soccer players are the stars of the new comic book, "Score the Goals: Teaming Up to Achieve the Millennium Development Goals."

Emmanuel Adebayor, Roberto Baggio, Michael Ballack, Iker Casillas, Didier Drogba, Luis Figo, Raúl, Ronaldo, Patrick Vieira, and Zinédine Zidane are shipwrecked on an island on their way to an all-star charity game. On the island, the team has to face the challenges of the eight Millennium Development Goals, before finally being rescued.

The 32-page booklet was jointly produced by the UN Office on Sport for Development and Peace, UNDP, FAO, UNAIDS, the Stop TB Partnership and the UN Department of Public Information. It is available in eneglish , french and spanish.
