The global economic crisis is rapidly turning into a human and development crisis. No region is immune. The poor countries are especially vulnerable, as they have the least cushion to withstand events. The crisis, coming on the heels of the food and fuel crisis, poses serious threats to their hard-won gains in boosting economic growth and reducing poverty! It is putting millions back into poverty , the prospect of reaching the MDGs by 2015 now looks even more distant. |

| Samenvatting |
The Millennium Development Goals -MDGs- are a set of internationally agreed targets to improve the well-being of the poor in developing countries by 2015. Many countries in the Asia-Pacific region are not on track to achieve these goals and the authors argue that many countries need to tailor the MDGs in order to be realistic and to maintain public and international support. While responsability for the achievement of the MDGs rests largely with governement of developing countries, the international community has a very impportant role to play. This book examines also the role of governement aid donors and Non-Governemental Organisations. It argues that a country-specific approach is required and is demonstrated by examening the role of the internationael community in assisting with the MDGs in 4 country case-studies |

Since September 2000, we have passed the midpoint between the adoption of the goals and the target date of 2015. There has been progress, but in most parts of the world much more has to be done. This first report of the Task Force makes clear that the delivery on commitments has been deficient and has fallen behind schedule. |

| Samenvatting |
The MDGs are the most ambitious developmental undertaking ever embraced by the international community. They involve the achievement of targets, in the most cases by 2015, for reducation of extreme income poverty and hunger, achieving universal primary education, promoting gender equality and empowering women, reducing child mortality, improving maternal health, combating HIV/AIDS and other major diseases ensuring environmental sustainability and developing a global partnership for development. This book provides cutting-edge analytical insights into if and how the stated aims are likely to be achieved. The volume presents empirical analyses of key determinants of the MDG target variables wich recognize that the most of the MDG targets are endogenously related. These interdependencies are crucial not only in analysing the MDGs but also devising strategies aimed at their achievement. |
