The Millennium Development Goals include reducing poverty, hunger, and disease, as well as promoting education and gender equality. Providing meals and mosquito nets for children under the age of five is consistent with these goals, as it addresses the issue of hunger and disease. Building technical and trade schools for boys (choice A) could promote education, but it does not address poverty, hunger, or disease. Developing coal, gold, and silver mines (choice B) could create jobs, but it could also have negative environmental and social impacts and does not address poverty, hunger, or disease. Encouraging the expansion of national militaries (choice D) is not consistent with the Millennium Development Goals, as it does not address any of the key focus areas.
