PHA-Exchange> The Millennium Project: Task Forces Reports

[claudio at hcmc.netnam.vn]

 from "Ruggiero, Mrs. Ana Lucia (WDC)" <ruglucia at PAHO.ORG> -----

The Millennium Project commissioned by the UN Secretary General as
independent advisory body to United Nations

The Millennium Project's research focuses on identifying the operational
priorities, organizational means of implementation, and financing
structures necessary to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs).
Ten thematically-orientated Task Forces perform the bulk of the
research. They are comprised of representatives from academia, the
public and private sectors, civil society organizations, and UN agencies
with the majority of participants coming from outside the UN system. 
The 15-20 members of each Task Force are all global leaders in their
area, selected on the basis of their technical expertise and practical
experience.

As an advisory body to the UN, the Millennium Project will report its
findings directly to the UN Secretary-General and the Administrator of
the UNDP
