Events What are we doing to ensure that Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) are met, especially following the credit crunch and apparent collapse in the global economy? MDGs can still be more than met, even in countries such as Cameroon, where poverty is rife and fuelling corruption. The resources are there, and should not be wasted! EITD Research events, including exhibitions, address this challenge. "To progress towards and beyond MDGs, countries have to be building and spurring capacity to grow their economy at rates that are greater than their population growth, and distribute the generated wealth fairly. This requires clear, responsive and accountable, national and international policy making, implementation and evaluation. No easy task, given the number of people or groups involved and how they are required to operate through political and bureaucratic institutions, within frameworks of laws, rules and conventions. Hence the continuing commitment of EITD Research to help provide routes to improved knowledge and understanding, increasing confidence in action conception, execution and outcomes, by investigating a wide range of root causes of disharmony and crisis in economic systems. These include depths of representation and participation in policy processes, information availability and analysis, the role of the state and private sector in development and economic policy making, implementation and evaluation." EITD Research Strategic Plan 2009-16.
