The global monitoring report 2009: a development emergency
This report notes that the global financial crisis is expected to reverse the MDG achievements made by some countries thus far and to impair future MDG progress. The report warns that, although the Millennium Development Goals are still reachable by 2015, a reduction of investments for social services may limit this option. The report indicates that carbon markets can play an increasingly important role in mobilizing private financing in support of investments that promote environmental sustainability and that may contribute to the well-being of the poor.
