India’s role in relation to the MDG effort has a dual significance: one the on hand it is seen as a key contributor to the achievement of specific goals, but on the other – and perhaps more importantly – it is directly responsible for the well being of over one-third of the world’s poor, thus implying an added responsibility to provide both moral and political leadership to the global effort to end poverty.
This report is a first step to bring together insights from institutions and networks whose work has been rooted in interventions against systemic poverty and inequality across the Indian sub-continent. While it does not claim to represent or speak on behalf of the poor, we believe that this is a significant first step in ensuring that the debate on the post 2015 agenda is more inclusive of the global south not just in terms of participation but also in terms of generating ideas and content for the new vision of global development
