The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in collaboration with ENERGIA is pleased to release this publication
The Millennium Villages initiative (and other developments) could achieve more integrated sustainable settlements if sustainability aims such as those set out in the proposed evaluation framework (minimising resource consumption; maximising environmental capital; urban design quality; quality of life, social inclusion, community participation; commercial viability) were adopted as central objectives.
The purpose of this toolkit is to develop capacities of local governments and their communities to ensure a strong MDGs focus in their local development strategies and effective and efficient conversion of public funds into public benefits. The toolkit draws on the ample evidence of creative local strategies for achieving the MDGs across the globe.
Drawing from the work of others, we have assembled evidence of the important linkages between environmental management and poverty reduction, and what we believe are significant policy opportunities for moving the poverty-environment agenda forward.
