Abstract
The turn of the century was marked by
some significant and promising events for world development.
The Millennium Declaration - signed by 189 countries in
September 2000 - led to the adoption of the Millennium
Development Goals, which set clear targets for eradicating
poverty and other sources of human deprivation. Following
other major international meetings came broad agreement on
the goals and strategies to achieve them. The task now is
implementation - to translate vision into action. Drawing
attention to priorities for action and related
accountabilities, this Report provides an integrated
assessment of the policies and actions needed to achieve the
Millennium Development Goals. Produced in cooperation with
the International Monetary Fund (IMF) and other
international partners, the Report assesses how the various
parties-developing countries, developed countries, and
international financial institutions-are playing their part
under the agreed development partnership and highlights
progress on the development policy agenda.
