The first of the eight Millennium Development Goals is to halve the number of poor people by 2015 and most donor agencies state poverty reduction as their general objective. However, one may criticise the objective for being insufficient and for drawing attention away from more serious problems.

I den seneste tid har forskellige medier bragt adskillige historier om svindel og korruption med danske bistandsmidler. Der har været fokus på antallet af sager, på manglende åbenhed om sagerne og på, hvorvidt der passes godt nok på pengene. Dette seminar sætter fokus på svindlens omfang og form, samt følgerne heraf
The United Nations Millennium Development Goals have been the main focus of development policy for a decade, but the ‘project’ faces great challenges in 2008: Aid pledges made at the extensively covered 2008 G8 summit in Gleneagles, Scotland, are not being met; the credit crunch and the threat of recession are eroding support in rich countries; the rise in oil and food prices threatens to entrench protectionism; and the continued crisis in Darfur is testing patience with international diplomacy.
The world of international development is changing and this has important consequences for development NGOs from rich countries trying to combat poverty in poor countries.
