annual Global Monitoring Report (GMR) on progress toward the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs) comes with only 10 years remaining to achieve them. It
reports good and bad news. Growth continues to be favorable and has helped cut
global poverty, in some cases dramatically. Many countries have stayed the
course with sound economic policies, which are delivering results, including
some countries in Sub-Saharan Africa. The volume of trade has grown worldwide,
and private capital flows to developing countries continue to rise. Evidence is
also emerging from some countries of rapid and tangible progress in improving
primary education completion, raising immunization coverage, and lowering child
mortality…..”<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>
