Session 3: Recasting Development for the 21st Century (April 15)

Over the past fifty years, Canada has spent billions of dollars on official development assistance. For the millions of people around the world who continue to suffer extreme poverty, starvation, unemployment and civil strife the results have been negligible. If the Millennium Development Goals are to be achieved by 2015, Canada will have to drastically reform its development policies in order to realize its objectives.
