Campaigning Toolkit For Civil Society Organisations engaged in the Millennium Development Goals

This manual aims to assist you and your civil society organisation in campaigning for the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). The Millennium Development Goals form an ambitious agenda for reducing poverty and improving lives. World leaders formulated the MDGs at the United Nations Millennium Summit in September 2000. Each goal contains one or more targets to be reached by 2015, and each country has to set realistic, time-bound and measurable national development goals in line with these targets.
