After 2015

What, if anything, should replace the MDGs as a policy focus or new development paradigm? In issue 14 The Broker included an article by Andy Sumner of IDS 'Rethinking development policy: Beyond 2015' which considers what a 2015 architecture should look like. The publication of this article coincides with a High Level Policy Forum ‘After 2015: promoting pro-poor growth after the MDGs’ to be hosted in Brussels on 23 June. As preferred media partner The Broker will post blogs by several invited speakers and discussants at the event and use this space on the website to host an online debate on the topic. We openly invite you to read comments, follow the blog and join the debate here.
