   2013 is a defining moment in the MDG timeline, with countries focusing efforts towards accelerating progress while at the same time drawing lessons from their MDG experience to help shape the post-201

   The GMC included a MDG Expo, which exhibited the catalytic contributions of several UN agencies and initiatives and their partners from around the globe in supporting countries towards achieving the MDGs. With less than 1,000 days remaining until the MDG deadline, the posters also highlighted critical areas where further progress was needed. Posters submitted by the UN MDG-F, UNEP, UNICEF, UNESCO and UNDP are brought together in this book for dissemination to a wider audience, with many thanks to our colleagues from across the world for these contributions.
