UNAG is working with its partners to create a civil-society based framework for monitoring the implementation of the Millenium Development Goals and increase the participation of the CSOs in the process of policy development and monitoring. As a signatory to the Millennium Declaration of September 2000, Georgia commits to achieve by 2015 the Millennium Development Goals: Goal 1: Halve extreme poverty and malnutrition
Goal 2: Improve primary and secondary education
Goal 3: Promote gender equality and empower women
Goal 4: Reduce child mortality
Goal 5: Improve maternal health
Goal 6: Limit the spread of HIV/AIDS, syphilis and tuberculosis
Goal 7: Ensure environmental sustainability
Goal 8: Develop a partnership for development In 2006 within the framework of the joint program of UNAG and UNA Sweden, the MDG Progress Report had been prepared to illustrate the progress achieved with the obligations that Georgia undertook to meet the Millennium Development Goals by 2015. The report has a descriptive character evaluating the Georgian Government’s performance and civil society participation in MDG-related areas. The civil society sector in Georgia participates in a number of processes in the country, and the Millennium Development goals are not an exception to this. Civil society is often directly engaged in MDG implementation, though its activities are more often indirectly supporting the government in executing the responsibilities taken. Consequently, the evaluation of the civil society, as an integral part of MDG implementation, was considered to be a relevant aspect of this report.
