The publication does not claim to be an exhaustive list of ‘best practices’ with self-claimed objectivity. Instead, it presents a diverse range of nationally-led programmes, policy interventions, and/or locally- tailored support to address those specific challenges. It is hoped that this publication will serve as a practical reference to context– specific approaches addressing these constraints. Photo: UNICEF/NYHQ2007-0119/Giacomo Pirozzi UNICEF/NYHQ2007-0119/Giacomo Photo: Photo: Photo: JUNE 2010 Foreword A decade has passed since world leaders adopted the Millennium Declaration at the General Assembly of the United Nations. Recognizing the urgent need to reduce poverty and address development challenges for long-lasting peace and security, time-bound development goals – coined as the Millennium Development Goals – were established with specific targets and indicators. At the 10th anniversary of the Millennium Summit, marked at the High Level Plenary Meeting on the MDGs in September 2010, world leaders and other stakeholders will be seeking concrete evidence of programmes and policies that have worked well and can be considered for adaptation and scaling up. The High Level Plenary Meeting will provide a unique opportunity to mobilize political will, re-energize the global MDG effort and agree on effective measures to accelerate and sustain progress. Much has been achieved during the past decade. In order to take stock of some of the country level evidence and experience, I am pleased to present the MDG Good Practices publication developed by the United Nations Development Group (UNDG). Good practices covered in this publication have sought to address specific constraints and challenges in achieving the Goals, in each country’s context. The publication provides evidence on different approaches to achieving the various MDGs and the importance of recognizing the synergies between these and the Internationally Agreed Development Goals. Some case studies may be familiar while others may serve as technical references for development practitioners. They demonstrate that, even under resource-constrained circumstances, there are innovative ways of overcoming obstacles to accelerate progress. It is our hope that this collection can serve as a practical tool for governments, non- governmental organizations, research institutes, the private sector and the UNDG agencies – and that it will contribute to evidence-based discussions in preparation for the High Level Plenary Meeting and in our collective efforts beyond.
