This article gives a clear explanation of both the Millennium Development Goals and the Sustainable Development Goals. The author discusses the criticisms that have been made of each set of goals, and looks at some of the major problems and issues raised.
These include the extent to which the Millennium Development Goals tend to be imposed by the wealthier Northern hemisphere countries on those in the developing South, and the extent to which foreign aid and targets hamper the autonomous development of the latter.
