MAJOR PROJECTS

4
gender equality, and business development. It brings together governments, academia, and UN agencies, and counts among its
partners WFP, UNAIDS, UNFPA and UNESCO. The MVP has entered its second phase, and all 14 sites in 10 countries in subSaharan Africa, totaling 500,000 people, are on track to achieve the MDGs.
UN Sustainable Development Solutions Initiative (SDSN), Director, 2012-present: The SDSN will mobilize scientific and technical
expertise from academia, civil society, and the private sector in support of sustainable-development problem solving at local, national,
and global scales. The Network will accelerate joint learning and help to overcome the compartmentalization of technical and policy
work by promoting integrated approaches to the interconnected economic, social, and environmental challenges confronting the world.
The SDSN will work closely with Secretary-General's High Level Panel on the post-2015 agenda, United Nations agencies,
multilateral financing institutions, as well as other international organizations.
Scaling Up the Millennium Villages Model: The MVP’s model of integrated rural development and lessons learned is being scaled up

Ghana.
One Million Community Health Workers (CHWs) Campaign: Jeffrey Sachs is overseeing the One Million Community Health
Workers (CHWs) Campaign, which aims to expand and accelerate CHW programs in sub-Saharan countries, scaling them up to

rural development to benefit pastoralist communities.

cope with food insecurity.

Development Bank, Islamic Development Bank, International Monetary Fund and World Bank, in order to boost Africa’s efforts to
