Gender and the Millennium Development Goals (Paperback)

The progress of the world 's governments towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) will be reviewed in 2005. This timely collection of articles provides feminist perspectives on the MDGs and critically evaluates their potential impact on gender equality and women 's empowerment. Authors differ in the degree of engagement with the MDGs they advocate, but many point to the urgent need to explore the linkages between the Goals and other international women 's rights instruments like the Convention on the Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) and the Beijing Platform for Action.Contributors include: UN Development Fund for Women Director Noeleen Heyzer, Naila Kabeer, Carol Barton, and Peggy Antrobus
