The Review establishes yardsticks for measuring results, not just for developing countries but for rich countries that help to fund development programs and for the multilateral institutions that help countries implement them. The first seven goals are mutually reinforcing and are directed at reducing poverty in all its forms. The last goal -- global partnership for development -- is about the means to achieve the first seven. MDG Review is doing this by bringing in the private sector on board - The private sector only gets a brief mention in the Millennium Development Goals. Yet it is business ˆ entrepreneurs, employers, investors and workers ˆ who are best positioned to help regions such as Africa and Asia to achieve the Goals. For the next remaining years until 2015, we aim to report on the developments, shortfalls, success stories, and even highlight on those countries that are on track in reaching the 2015 target as well as those that are trailing behind. Our aim is to be the bridge that facilitates the link between the private and public sectors, allowing the private sector to showcase some of their technologies and solutions in various industry sectors.
