The Progress of Nations 1998

The Internet has made the world a smaller place in which to live. This shrinking world has changed the way we live in many ways. Far away places now seem to be as near as your next door neighbor.

The Progress of Nations is a program that is sponsored by the United Nations through UNICEF. It is a site that has as its goal the betterment of our world society, one where nations will not be judged by size and wealth and military might, but how well the quality of life their citizens have. Here you can see the score card on all the nations in the world, a most enlightening article. Some of the countries that are making the largest stride are the smaller ones, ones that you would least expect.

A visit to this site is an example of the how the world is changing, and how the Internet is helping it to happen. A most interesting site, one that educates as well as informs.
