This report is based on a master set of data that has been compiled by an Inter-Agency and Expert
Group on MDG Indicators led by the Department of Economic and Social Affairs of the United
Nations Secretariat, in response to the wishes of the General Assembly for periodic assessment of
progress towards the MDGs. The Group comprises representatives of the international organizations
whose activities include the preparation of one or more of the series of statistical indicators that were
identied as appropriate for monitoring progress towards the MDGs, as reected in the list below. A
number of national statisticians and outside expert advisers also contributed.

Foreword
The Millennium Declaration in 2000 was a milestone
in international cooperation, inspiring development
efforts that have improved the lives of hundreds of
millions of people around the world. Ten years later,
world leaders will gather again at the United Nations
in New York to review progress, assess obstacles
and gaps, and agree on concrete strategies and
actions to meet the eight Millennium Development
Goals by 2015.
The Goals represent human needs and basic rights
that every individual around the world should be
able to enjoyfreedom from extreme poverty and
hunger; quality education, productive and decent
employment, good health and shelter; the right of
women to give birth without risking their lives; and a
world where environmental sustainability is a priority,
and women and men live in equality. Leaders also
pledged to forge a wide-ranging global partnership
for development to achieve these universal
objectives.
This report shows how much progress has been
made. Perhaps most important, it shows that

Overview
Keeping the promise
Five years from the target date for the Millennium
Development Goals, leaders from around the world
will be gathering at the United Nations to undertake a
comprehensive review of progress and together chart a
course for accelerated action on the MDGs between now
and 2015.
Many countries are moving forward, including some of the
poorest, demonstrating that setting bold, collective goals
in the fight against poverty yields results. For every life that
has benefited from the establishment of a quantitative,
time-bound framework of accountability, the MDGs have
made a real difference.
But unmet commitments, inadequate resources, lack of
focus and accountability, and insufficient dedication to
sustainable development have created shortfalls in many
areas. Some of these shortfalls were aggravated by the
global food and economic and financial crises.
Nevertheless, the data and analysis on the following
pages provide clear evidence that targeted interventions,
sustained by adequate funding and political commitment,
have resulted in rapid progress in some areas. In others, the
poorest groups, those without education or living in more
remote areas, have been neglected and not provided the
conditions to improve their lives.
Building on successes
The collective efforts towards achievement of the MDGs
have made inroads in many areas. Encouraging trends
before 2008 had put many regions on track to achieve at
least some of the goals. The economic growth momentum
in developing regions remains strong and, learning from the
many successes of even the most challenged countries,
achieving the MDGs is still within our grasp:
Progress on poverty reduction is still being made,
despite significant setbacks due to the 2008-2009
economic downturn, and food and energy crises. The
developing world as a whole remains on track to achieve
the poverty reduction target by 2015. The overall poverty
rate is still expected to fall to 15 per cent by 2015, which
translates to around 920 million people living under the
international poverty linehalf the number in 1990.
Major advances have been made in getting children into
school in many of the poorest countries, most of them in
sub-Saharan Africa.
Remarkable improvements in key interventionsfor
malaria and HIV control, and measles immunization,
for examplehave cut child deaths from 12.5 million in
1990 to 8.8 million in 2008.
Between 2003 and 2008, the number of people
receiving antiretroviral therapy increased tenfoldfrom
400,000 to 4 millioncorresponding to 42 per cent of
the 8.8 million people who needed treatment for HIV.
6/15/2010 12:51:31 PM
Towards 2015
The Millennium Declaration represents the most important
promise ever made to the worlds most vulnerable people.
The MDG framework for accountability derived from the
Declaration has generated an unprecedented level of
commitment and partnership in building decent, healthier
lives for billions of people and in creating an environment
that contributes to peace and security.
The Millennium Development Goals are still attainable.
The critical question today is how to transform the pace of
change from what we have seen over the last decade into
dramatically faster progress. The experience of these last
ten years offers ample evidence of what works and has
provided tools that can help us achieve the MDGs by 2015.
The Millennium Development Goals summit in September
will be an opportunity for world leaders to translate this
evidence into a concrete agenda for action.

than one third of young men and less than one fifth of young
women in developing countries claim such knowledge about
HIV. The lowest levels (8 per cent) are found among young
women in Northern Africa, according to surveys undertaken
between 2003 and 2008. These levels are well below the
2010 target of 95 per cent set at the United Nations General
Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS in 2001.

Note: A Red List Index value of 1.0 means that all species are categorized
as of least concern, and hence none are expected to go extinct in the near
future. A value of zero indicates that all species have gone extinct.
The IUCNs Red List Indexwhich charts the proportion of species expected to remain in existence in the near
future in the absence of additional conservation actionshows that more species are being driven towards
extinction than are improving in status. Mammals are more threatened than birds. And for both groups,
species in the developing regions are more threatened and deteriorating as fast as, or faster than, species in
the developed regions.

Aid remains well below the United Nations target of 0.7 per
cent of gross national income for most donors. In 2009, the
only countries to reach or exceed the target were Denmark,
Luxembourg, the Netherlands, Norway and Sweden. The
largest donors by volume in 2009 were the United States,
followed by France, Germany, the United Kingdom and
Japan.
This year is a milestone for European Union members of the
Development Assistance Committee of the Organisation for
Economic Co-operation and Development. In 2005, DACEU member states agreed to reach a collective total of 0.56
per cent of GNI in net ODA in 2010, with a minimum country
target of 0.51 per cent.
Some countries will achieve or even surpass that goal:
Sweden, with the worlds highest ODA as a percentage of
GNI (1.01 per cent), is followed by Luxembourg (1 per cent),
Denmark (0.83 per cent), the Netherlands (0.8 per cent),
Belgium (0.7 per cent), the United Kingdom (0.6 per cent),
