Millennium Development GoalsWorldconnectors believe that the UN Millennium Devlopment Goals (MDG's) are currently the most valuable shared programme in the global fight against poverty, hunger and disease. Never before has the global community of governments agreed to formulate and act upon such specific promises to end extreme poverty. Never before have they accepted accountability vis-à-vis world public opinion. Never before have such promises been benchmarked by concrete, measurable, realistic, time-bound, and tough indicators. We see the MDG's as a part of the Millennium Declaration that encompasses a wider agenda of global human security, conflict prevention and peace building.
