Sustainable Development Goals

After the Millenium Development Goals which were not very successful, the Sustainable Development Goals converge with the post 2015 development agenda.

Two papers have been written on this issue by IDEFIE ( in French):

– L’ après développement: comment répondre à la demande d’expertise based on a study of the OECD

– Quel après 2015 pour le développement durable? on the role of the European Union in the SDGs implementation.

Lets’s hope that above the political speeches and the  natioanl interests, all these conferences and declared intentions really reduce poverty
