In 2000, world leaders adopted eight Millennium Development Goals and committed themselves to halve extreme poverty by 2015. Over the past 4 years, the UN Millennium Project (www.unmillenniumproject.org) under the direction of Prof. Jeffrey D. Sachs, has worked with leading development experts and governments to develop practical approaches to meet the Millennium Development Goals. You’ll have a chance to ask questions directly and find out what private sector companies can do.
