MDG framework should be on acknowledging and addressing the interconnectivity of„development problems‟ and seek system-wide solutions. To move forward, the need is torecognize the connections between the goals and development approach holistically andadopt appropriate solutions.As budgets shrink and challenges mount, several donor countries have already begun to seekwaiver in their commitment to international development and even to reconsider the promisesmade not only in the Millennium Declaration but also in the Monterrey Consensus and theG8‟s Gleneagles Declaration. But, however dire the current economic situation might be, thegrowing reluctance to honour pledges should not be ascribed to budgetary constraints alone,especially in view of the relatively modest sums involved in aid commitments. In view ofsuch perceptions, there should be a clear message that achieving the MDGs and delivering onthe post-MDG agenda is not optional, since the agenda involves an essential investment for asafer, more human and prosperous world. The goals are not just an „aid obligation‟ but thebasis for political and economic strategies that will benefit all the world‟s citizens, and notjust the least fortunate.As such the post-2015 development agenda requires a new approach to international andnational development, taking the multiple interlinked global challenges that exist andperpetuate to the detriment of the entire global community. It is, therefore, of paramountimportance that, in view of the multiple roles that equitable global and national developmentcan play in social and economic development, the post-MDGs development agenda willacknowledge the critical role of sustained and inclusive development in furthering keyoutcomes, ensuring the inclusion of all disadvantaged groups in development and society as ameans to combat inequality, vulnerability and poverty. The post-2015 debate needs arenewed and comprehensive focus on poverty, inequality, income distribution and socialinclusion. For countries like Bangladesh, inclusive development along with fiscallysustainable social protection based on strong legal and regulatory frameworks should be anintegral component of national development strategies to achieve equitable and sustainabledevelopment in consistent with the MDGs and its follow up agenda.In addition, the post-2015 agenda should include some explicit accountability mechanismsfor the relevant stakeholders. Within the agenda, specific goals should form part of aconceptual framework for development for the post-2015 period. The above requiresconsiderable thought and appropriate responses which meet the political and technical needsof the multiple actors in global development.One of the major contributions of the MDGs is its impetus to coordinating national andinternational efforts to reduce poverty and promote human development. This has contributedto mainstreaming the fight against poverty in policies, plans and programmes across thecountries in the world. One major area where probably more emphasis is needed in the post-2015 agenda is to address the structural factors that give rise to deeply entrenched andintersecting inequalities and the persistence of social exclusion. The multidimensional natureof poverty and social exclusion requires a broader agenda of social transformation for these114
countries. Moreover, the problems of poverty and social exclusion have global dimensions aswell, as reflected in the unequal nature of the relationships between the developed anddeveloping countries. For ensuring growth, prosperity and social justice, a genuine andequitable global partnership is needed as a platform for the post-2015 agenda.** 6th June 2013 was the deadline for submitting individual country's proposal to the UnitedNations to be included in the Post 2015 Development Agenda. Bangladesh has prepared itsproposal through inclusive consultative process and sent the same to the UN. The proposal isattached at Annex-4 of this document.115
