2015 highlights the finalization of the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and the start-up of the Sustainable Development Goals. What have the MDGs delivered? And what can we expect from the new goals? The number of goals has more than doubled (17 goals), they are more complex (169 sub-goals) and they are universal, i.e. applicable not only to ‘developing’ but also to ‘developed’ countries. How should we understand this move, what can we expect and how are Dutch organizations contributing to this agenda? The 8ht Max Havelaar lecture will find answers to these questions.
