The Millennium Development Goals in Indonesia
At the Millennium Summit in September 2000, the largest gathering of world leaders in history adopted the UN Millennium Declaration, committing their nations to a new global partnership to reduce extreme poverty and setting out a series of time-bound targets, all with a deadline of 2015, that have become known as the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Indonesia is a signatory to this declaration.
In consultation with Government, civil society and other development partners, three areas of cooperation were identified as areas where the UN system can work together to support the MDGs in Indonesia:
Strengthening human development to achieve the MDGs
Promoting good governance
Protecting the vulnerable and reducing vulnerabilities
These three areas of cooperation are integrated into the UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) 2006 – 2010.

"We will have time to reach the Millennium Development Goals – worldwide and in most, or even all, individual countries – but only if we break with business as usual.
We cannot win overnight. Success will require sustained action across the entire decade between now and the deadline. It takes time to train the teachers, nurses and engineers; to build the roads, schools and hospitals; to grow the small and large businesses able to create the jobs and income needed. So we must start now. And we must more than double global development assistance over the next few years. Nothing less will help to achieve
the Goals."
