The United Nations and partners are calling for renewed attention to the Millennium Development Goals as the target date for their achievement approaches. Friday, 5 April 2013 kicks off the countdown of the last 1,000 days.
The MyWorld initiative aims to gather as many voices as possible to inform the debate on the post-2015 agenda. A short survey has been developed, and your help is solicited in getting it out to as many people as possible.
The below link will bring you to a website where you can vote for what, in your views, should be priorities for a post 2015 global agenda. Please have a look, vote, and share as widely as you can through your contact lists, whether in Kathmandu or in the regions, by sending it onwards to your colleagues, through your facebook, your skype status, your twitter, whatever you can think of! Let your voice be heard and encourage others to do the same!
Following is the link to the survey: http://www.myworld2015.org/?partner=NepalRCO
