Abstract

Technology and politics have thrust the world more closely together than ever before. The benefits of globalization are potentially enormous, as a result of the increased sharing of ideas, cultures, life-saving technologies, and efficient production processes. Yet globalization is under trial, partly because these benefits are not yet reaching hundreds of millions of the world's poor, and partly because globalization introduces new kinds of international challenges as turmoil in one part of the world can spread rapidly to others, through terrorism; armed conflict, environmental degradation, or disease, as demonstrated by the dramatic spread of AIDS around the globe in a single generation. The world's political leaders have recognized this global interdependence in solemn commitments to improve the lives of the world's poor by the year 2015. The Millennium DEVELOPMENT Goals (MDGs), adopted at the Millennium Summit of the United Nations in September 2000, call for a dramatic reduction in POVERTY and marked improvements in the HEALTH of the poor.The importance of the MDGs in HEALTH is, in one sense, self-evident. Improving the HEALTH and longevity of the poor is an end in itself, a fundamental goal of economic DEVELOPMENT. But it is also a means to achieving the other DEVELOPMENT goals relating to POVERTY reduction. The linkages of HEALTH to POVERTY reduction and to long-term economic growth are powerful, much stronger than is generally understood. In Iran for achieving to MDGs goals many activities started three years ago to targeting HEALTH care services for poor people.This paper reviews HEALTH services availability for poor people, poor people targeting and relation between DEVELOPMENT and HEALTH.
