Until recently, discussions on a new post-2015 framework to succeed the Millennium Development Goals mostly revolved around general principles or else very particular features of a possible landscape. Now, several proposals for an integrated post-2015 agenda have emerged. Most prominent among these is the illustrative framework offered by the UN Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel (HLP) of Eminent Persons on the Post-2015 Development Agenda. Robin Davies gave a comparative assessment of the frameworks on offer, identify some pervasive defects, and suggest ways of repairing these.
Robin Davies is the Associate Director of the Development Policy Centre at Crawford School of Public Policy, ANU. He was previously a member of AusAID’s senior executive service for a decade, both in Australia and overseas. Most recently he headed AusAID’s international programs and partnerships division. Robin was Australia’s representative on the G20 Development Working Group from its establishment in 2010 until late 2011. He contributed to the development of a series of Australian and multilateral climate change initiatives in the period 2007 to 2010. He managed Australia’s aid program in Indonesia from 2003 to 2006 and represented Australia on The Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD) Development Assistance Committee from 1999 to 2001.
