Two years away from the deadline set by the United Nations Millennium Declaration, the ICD´s Conference on the Future of the Millennium Development Goals in the African Union aims to review the progress already made across Africa in regards to meeting the 8 Millennium Development Goals and to discuss the potential the continent has for further development, so that the targets set by world leaders at the Millennium Summit in 2000 to reduce extreme poverty might be reached, sustained and expanded in the foreseeable future.

With the deadline for these targets approaching rapidly and significant progress remaining to be made, it is essential to create a new agenda for Africa, focused on reinvigorating the existing initiatives in place to tackle the eight MDGs and propel Africa into a better economic, political and social climate. As a means to this end, the ICD will gather stakeholders from all sectors of society to jointly design the developmental future of the continent.
