Half-way to what? Development beyond the MDGs
The world in 2015 and beyond is difficult to predict. The current pace of global change is accelerating and creating both challenges and opportunities. International development is likely to become more global, more complex and about more than material wellbeing. We are likely to see new actors, new contexts, new institutions, and new emerging policy narratives. In this event IDS Fellow Andy Sumner and IFAD economist Karim Hussein will discuss the what the MDGs mean for the future of development, and what development policy will look like after they have been met - or missed.
