Introduction

In the United Nations Millennium Declaration, the nations of the world pledged to intensify the global partnership for development to support country efforts to achieve each of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by 2015. In many countries, national authorities and civil society have joined with international partners to make important and effective efforts towards this end. In the present report, the MDG Gap Task Force reviews the state of the global MDG partnership in 2010 and recommends steps to intensify it in ways that would increase the probability of universal attainment of the MDGs by 2015.
