MY World: listening to 1 million voices
MY World is a global survey about people’s priorities. Less than a year ago, ODI became one of the founding partners, after it was devised by me and Paul Ladd of UNDP. Out of a list of 16 options, people are asked to choose the six that are most important for themselves and their families. There’s also space for people to add a 17th option, if there’s something important that they think isn’t captured by the existing options. -

Insecurity disrupts development, but peace doesn't drive it
'The inclusion of a peace and justice goal in the High Level Panel's post-2015 report is a welcome acknowledgement of the negative impact of insecurity on development. However, we need to think carefully about the relationships between security, peace and development to ensure that what gets built into the post-2015 framework stands the best chance of contributing to the eradication of extreme poverty.' -
Consulting the evidence: how conflict and violence can best be included in the post-2015 development agenda
The inclusion of a peace and justice goal in the High-Level Panel’s post-2015 report is a welcome acknowledgement of the negative impact of insecurity and injustice on development progress. However, in developing this goal and its targets and indicators further, it is important to consult the evidence on what we know about the relationships between insecurity, peace, and development. -
To deliver on post-2015 goals, we need a data revolution in budgets too
The High-Level Panel has called for a data revolution to track progress towards international development targets. They were right to do so. But that’s not the only revolution that we need. If the international community is serious about ‘going to zero’ on poverty and other goals, we need to know what it will cost. Targets count for little if you can’t pay for them. And we also need to track the money to make sure it actually gets to where it is needed.
