Abstract

Bartholomew Armah of the United Nations Economic Commission for Africa synthesizes African stakeholder perspectives regarding the MDGs and the post-2015 agenda. Stakeholder input was derived from a continent-wide electronic survey and consultations with civil society, women’s groups, the private sector, regional economic communities, government officials, and members of the Pan-African Parliament. Armah’s research finds that African stakeholders seek an ‘MDGs Plus’ solution for post-2015: a reformulation of the MDGs to account for sustainability, inequality, and quality of service delivery, accompanied by the addition of enablers (as well as outcomes) to the goal process. Armah reports that domestic ownership and accountability – buoyed by external climate adaption funding commitments – are key.
