At the United Nations Millennium Summit in September 2000 World Leaders placed development at the heart of the global agenda by adopting the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), and setting clear targets for reducing poverty, hunger, disease, illiteracy, environmental degradation, and discrimination against women by 2015.
