Title of Study

Report on the United Nations' Millennium Development Goals

Summary of Study

In 2000 the nations of the world made a remarkable set

of resolutions to welcome the new century: the Millennium Development Goals. These resolutions have the potential to transform lives – by ending poverty and hunger, by preventing and curing disease, by educating all children and empowering women, by sustaining the environment as agriculture and trade go from floundering to flourishing. This report discusses the resolutions, how they might be kept, and progress that has been made so far.
