Messages from the peoples of the UN
• MDG issues remain the building blocks of human
development
• Ideas about how to improve the MDGs
• People are asking for an expanded agenda to address
new and persistent challenges
Call for a unified and universal agenda
centered on poverty eradication
in the context of sustainable development
Global Partnership for Development: The
Challenge We Face
• ODA declined and failed to reach the 0.7%
• Trade gap between countries continues to
narrow
• HIPC and MDRI have reduced HIPC’s debt
burden an average of 90%
• Medicines are not always available and/or
affordable
• ICT use has grown in all regions
25th September – High Level Event
Strong report from the SG combined with
effective political leadership from the Special
Event and the Forum could provide decisive
momentum for the process :
• Some initial substantive agreements
• A road map
• UN system support to the discussion
Moving to consensus building in the framework
of intergovernmental processes
1)
2)
3)
4)
5)
6)
Member states must have full ownership
UN coordinated services have to be fully in sync with the
intergovernmental process
UN task is to inspire not to prescribe. Need to reinforce
outreach and communications
Strengthen credibility of MDG acceleration
Prepare the transition from the MDGs. We need to be ‘fit for
purpose’
Maintain the dialogue and engagement at country level
and with global stakeholders

Challenges in the way forward
Notwithstanding areas of emerging consensus, there remain
difficult areas where contention and divergence may occur:
• Necessity of a paradigm shift;
• North/south divide
• Not dropping the ball on poverty while fully incorporating
sustainability
• Peace and security
• Addressing Human Rights and Universality

We listened, now what?
• Moving to further engagement with Member States
and non-state actors
• Means of implementation will be a central issue
• UNCTs expand support and advice to Member States
at the level of capitals
• Continued coherence in UN’s work
• The need for the UN to get ready and “fit for
purpose” to support delivering a more holistic and
comprehensive agenda
