With the culmination of a two day Forum in preparation for the Official Review Conference of the Financing for Development Process, we the members of Civil Society, representing some 252 delegates from 52 countries have adopted a declaration to be delivered to the Official Review Conference.
Mr. President today, here, we present to you the key findings of this declaration and would appreciate your reaction to these proposals and your plans for the way forward.
We find ourselves in the midst of a crisis that threatens not only the completion of the MDGs, and the lives and livelihoods of hundreds of millions of people, in the North andthe South, but also the stability of the worlds economies. In view of the failure of Northern Governments and the appointed institutions (BWI, etc) to provide adequate resolutions to avert this crisis, we can think of no better moment for the UN to assert itself as the instrument that defines the way forward.
