UPSC Prelims 2020 Question:

Consider the following pairs

Sl. No.	International agreement/set-up		Subject
1.	Alma-Ata Declaration	:	Healthcare of the people
2.	Hague Convention	:	Biological and chemical weapons
3.	Talanoa Dialogue	:	Global climate change
4.	Under2 Coalition	:	Child rights

Which of the pairs given above is/are correctly matched?

Explanation:

• The Alma Ata declaration on “Health for All” in 1978 set out a broad set of principles called the Primary Health Care (PHC) approach. It expressed the need for urgent action by all governments, all health and development workers, and the world community to protect and promote the health of all people. So, pair 1 is correctly matched.
  
  
• The Hague Convention protects children and their families against the risks of illegal, irregular, premature or ill-prepared adoptions abroad. To do this, the Hague Convention puts safeguards in place to make sure that all intercountry adoptions are in the best interests of the child. So, pair 2 is not correctly matched.
  
  
• The UN Framework Convention on Climate Change's Talanoa Dialogue aims to end the climate impasse by bringing participants closer together by having them share their experiences with climate change. It will help the parties assess their progress following the Paris Conventions. So, pair 3 is correctly matched.
  
  
• The Under2 Coalition is the largest global network of states, regions, provinces and other subnational governments committed to achieving net zero emissions by 2050 at the latest. So, pair 4 is not correctly matched.
  
  

Therefore, option (3) is the correct answer.
