Foreword

At the 2010 High-level Plenary meeting of the General Assembly on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), Member States of the United Nations reaffirmed their commitment to achieving the internationally agreed development goals, including the MDGs. They also recognized the need to consider further steps to advance the United Nations development agenda beyond 2015. In response, the United Nations system mobilized international effort on the post-2015 United Nations development agenda, in order to support the consultation process with analytical inputs, expertise and outreach. This collaboration is critical to ensure an open, inclusive consultation process that engages all relevant stakeholders.
