Dear Friend,
Do you support AGFIs MDG YOUTH , the landmark 2000 U.N leaders
decision that legalized NATIONAL MDG YOUTH nationwide?
If you're like most Nigeria, your answer is a resounding yes.
Join us in demanding that the MDGs represent a global partnership that has grown from the commitments and targets established at the world summits of the 1990s. Responding to the world's main development challenges and to the calls of civil society, the MDGs promote poverty reduction, education, maternal health, gender equality, and aim at combating child mortality, AIDS and other diseases.
Set for the year 2015, the MDGs are an agreed set of goals that can be achieved if all actors work together and do their part. Poor countries have pledged to govern better, and invest in their people through health care and education. Rich countries have pledged to support them, through aid, debt relief, and fairer trade
uphold. UNDP is working with a wide range of partners to help create coalitions for change to support the goals at global, regional and national levels, to benchmark progress towards them, and to help countries to build the institutional capacity, policies and programmes needed to achieve the MDGs.
Guided by the UN Core Strategy, UNDP's work on the MDGs focuses on coordinating global and local efforts that:
Campaign and mobilise for the MDGs through advocacy;
Share the best strategies for meeting the MDGs in terms of innovative practices, policy and institutional reforms, means of policy implementation, and evaluation of financing options;
Monitor and report progress towards the MDGs; and
Support governments in tailoring the MDGs to local circumstances and challenges.
FOCUS ON:
Advocacy for the MDGs

support AGFIs MDG YOUTH Campaign
National-level action We call on governments to: • Adapt the promises in the global Millennium Declaration and apply the Millennium Development Goals to the national context. • Ensure that adequate domestic and external resources are allocated to the provision of high quality public services that are accessible to all. • Actively involve civil society and the poor, particularly socially excluded groups, in the formulation of national development priorities, policies and plans. • Be fully accountable and transparent in the use of public resources and strive to wipe out corruption. • Exercise the right to determine at national level policies and practices that benefit the majority of citizens, and to resist potentially damaging, externally driven conditions imposed by international institutions and agreements.

Millennium Development Goals In September 2000 at the United Nations Millennium Summit
Millennium Development Goals In September 2000 at the United Nations Millennium Summit, 189 member nations came together to make the alleviation of poverty and the fulfillment of human rights their highest priorities. This unprecedented agreement spawned the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)—eight objectives to accelerate human development, achieve universal equality, and attain a more peaceful world by 2015. While ambitious, the MDGs are achievable, but only through a global concert of efforts among groups and individuals at all levels. The responsibility does not rest on the shoulders of poor countries alone. Rich nations must also take ownership of the MDGs and support policies and initiatives that strive to meet them. The world in 2015 will be one of our own making: a reflection of our shared success—or failure—to meet the Goals and ensure that all people have the means to fulfill their individual potential. join AGFIs MDGs YOUTH Campaign and mobilise for the MDGs through advocacy in Nigeria .awakagofwd@yahoo.com or 234-8033831740, 08033831740
