MDGs

Todd Moss at CGD believes the MDGs are:

1. Great at raising money.
2. Inappropriate as national goals (India and Mauritania with the same objectives and targets?)
3. Mislabeling many high-performers as losers (Burkina Faso, Mozambique, Liberia, and others are improving strongly, but are still considered way “off track”). This only feeds aid skeptics and undermines reformers.
4. Wrong to claim collective accountability; when everyone is responsible then no one is.
