 THE DEVELOPMENT CONTEXT |
The Millennium Development Goals have galvanised the development agenda around a set of time-bound targets to bring equality and development to the people. In order to achieve this, progress towards the MDGs must be measured in a way that represents the empowerment of women and the inclusion of vulnerable groups in society and functioning health systems. This Development Account project driven by ESCAP will address this gap between global targets and regional realities to strengthen policies and programmes for inclusion of socially vulnerable groups, promotion of gender equality and health in the Five Regional Commissions (RCs): ESCAP, ECA, ECE, ECLAC and ESCWA. more»
