This year’s DPI/NGO Conference aims to support the worldwide
efforts to mobilize civil society behind the Millennium Development
Goals. It is a Conference with a practical, substantive and
activist agenda that arises from urgent concerns and pressing
deadlines.
The Conference brings together a diverse group of presenters,
including UN officials, government representatives, MDG campaign
activists, media representatives, academics and, most importantly,
people from the front lines where the urgent need for the
implementation of the MDGs is most clearly felt.
The plenary sessions are organized to present an overall picture
of the Goals. Our speakers will assess the current status
of the MDGs, address obstacles that threaten their realization,
share innovative approaches to partnerships and discuss civil
society campaigns that are effective at stimulating broader
public awareness and support for replicable and sustainable
programmes and campaigns.
