Remaining gaps are still very large and there have been setbacks because of the global food, energy and financial crises. The deadline for commitments in… The MDG Gap Task Force Report 2010

World Economic and Social Survey 2010

Retooling Global Development The World Economic and Social Survey 2010 highlights the systemic weakness unmasked by the recent global crises and proposes reforms in international arrangements to eliminate these deficiencies and gaps in global governance mechanisms. These weaknesses have unduly constricted national policy space and sustain the proliferation of conflicting international rules. The proposed reforms are aimed at ensuring consistency among national development efforts and global mechanisms in aid, trade and finance to pave the way towards more balanced and sustainable development.
