The Post-2015 Development Agenda: A Review of the Debate and Potential Elements of a Joint EU Strategy
New EADI Policy Paper by Andrew Sumner and Thomas Lawo, February 2013

EADI Policy Paper Sumner/Lawo

This paper seeks to capture the major elements of global development efforts through the MDGs and in preparing for a global development agenda beyond the year 2015 to contribute to the post-2015 discussion. The paper

  • Looks backwards at trends in poverty reduction during the MDG period (1990 –present) and the impacts of the MDGs;
  • Looks forward and makes projections for levels and patterns of poverty over the next 10-20 years and discusses emergent issues including the ‘new geography of poverty’;
  • Reviews official documents and research papers and outlines three narratives and options for a post-2015 framework;
  • Makes proposals for key elements of an EU strategy.
