Beyond the Millennium Development Goals:

Towards an OECD contribution to the post-2015 agenda

A the 2015 deadine or the Miennium Deveoment Goa (MDG) aroache, the United

Nation and the internationa community at arge have tarted to work on a new deveoment

ramework.

With it reort Shaping the 21st Century, the OECD ayed a ivota roe in deveoing the

MDG. The OECD i now ooking orward to contributing to a new era or goba deveoment.

Thi overview aer the rt in a erie o contribution outine a reiminary rooa or

a contribution to the ot-2015 era which refect the OECD miion o uorting government

in deigning better oicie or better ive.

Thi thinking rereent the Organiation commitment refected in the recenty-aunched

OECD Strategy on Development to engage with member countrie and emerging and

deveoing countrie; to hare exertie and knowedge through mutua earning, reecting

countrie ownerhi o their own deveoment; and to trive toward more coherent aroache

to deveoment.

The rooa coniting o 11 eement intend to he rovide a goba, hoitic, meaurabeand meaningu deveoment ramework. It invove a two-eve aroach:

1. a global level with a ma number o high roe goa and target

2. a national level coniting o goa, target and indicator dened and taiored to

the divere tarting oint, ecic context, rioritie and caacitie o each country

Thi i a reiminary rooa. It i not intended to be an exhautive it o OECD contribution,

but a drat it o idea or where the OECD coud bet tart to get invoved. More detaied

aer wi be roduced in co-oeration with dierent OECD directorate, refecting in detai

the 11 eement outined here.

2/20Beyond the MillenniuM developMent Goals: towards an oeCd ContriBution to the post-2015 aGenda2

since the etabihment o the MDG in 2000-01, time have changed. The roce o hiting weath

ha atered the way we think about the iue and the meaurement o overty reduction, ocia

deveoment and rogre more broady. The rt decade o the new miennium witneed a raid

convergence in countrie er caita income a art o the deveoing word, eeciay China and

India, grew ater than the advanced economie o the OECD. Thi growth and increaing heterogeneity

within the deveoing word make the o-caed North-south diviion an outdated concet. large

diaritie erit in tandard o iving, and worrie are riing regarding the utainabiity and

environmenta cot o uch raid growth (Box 4). Neverthee, thi growth ha heed to reduce

extreme overty; the word may have aready achieved the rt target o MDG 1.A i.e. to have the

roortion o eoe iving on one doar a day (in 2005 Us doar, comared to 1990 a bae year).

According to the UN Miennium Deveoment Goa Reort or 2012, the roortion o the extremey

oor2 e rom 47% in 1990 to 24% in 2008 (UN, 2012b).

Other aect o the new context in which the ot-2015 goa ramework wi oerate are the

oowing:

New geography o growth: The hit in the word economic centre o gravity away rom OECD

countrie toward emerging countrie ha imication or the goba baance o economic

ower. Deveoing and emerging economie have outerormed OECD growth ince the tart

o the miennium and account or a arger hare o word GDp. The new engine o growth and

the emergence o south-south inkage ao create new oortunitie or deveoing countrie.

With thi reh dynamim, many art o the deveoing word are growing in tature and voice.

Box 1. How the UN is maintaining the goas momentum beyond 2015

Work ha aready begun on a new agenda and ramework within the UN, it concerned agencie and beyond.

The ocia ot-2015 debate wi tart with a High-leve Meeting at the UN Genera Aemby in 2013 (UNGA

2013). The UN secretary Genera (UNsG) ha et u a UN sytem Tak Team on the pot-2015 UN DeveomentAgenda and nominated a High-leve pane o Eminent peron on the pot-2015 Deveoment Agenda to he

reare the new ramework.

goa (sDG) to be ubmitted to the UN Genera Aemby in 2013. Thee houd be coherent with and integrated

into the United Nation deveoment agenda beyond 2015 (UN, 2012a: aragrah 246). It ao recognie the

need or broader meaure o rogre to comement gro dometic roduct in order to better inorm oicy

deciion, and requet that the United Nation statitica Commiion aunch a rogramme o work in thi

area buiding on exiting initiative (UN, 2012a: aragrah 38).

New actors, new resources: The new miennium i ao characteried by a more diveried

andcae o deveoment actor. Goba deveoment i being nanced by many more varied

ource, ranging rom a more divere et o countrie to dierent rivate ource o nancing.

Greater interdependence: The word i acing new, more interinked goba chaenge. We

need to identiy new ource o growth and a new growth aradigm (uch a incuive green

growth3), dea with cimate change and the unutainabe ue o natura reource, retore

nancia tabiity, and enure better goba governance in a gobaied economy.

New geography o poverty: The new geograhy o growth i araeed by a new geograhy

o overty. Mot o today extreme oor ive in midde-income countrie, but by 2025 mot

aboute overty wi once again be concentrated in ow-income countrie,4 eeciay in o-

caed ragie tate.

Growing inequality: Concern are mounting about the imact o greater inequaity within

deveoed, emerging and deveoing economie on growth, ocia coheion and oitica

tabiity. Income ditribution and reative overty need to be careuy oberved. Moreover, many

o thoe who have ecaed extreme overty in the deveoing word are ti oor, remain

vunerabe and ack aety net to coe with hock.

Broader measures o development: The utiity o gro dometic roduct (GDp) or gro

nationa income (GNI) a vaid meaure o deveoment ha been caed into quetion. The

earch i on or (comementary) too or meauring rogre which better refect natura and

ocia caita in nationa account and cature non-monetary dimenion o we-being.

Country and context specifc approaches: There i growing recognition that the need

and rioritie o individua countrie are not adequatey refected in goba negotiation and

rocee o etting goba goa and tandard. such rocee houd not reut in buerint,

one-ize-t-a aroache to deveoment. Intead, initiative are needed that refect the

reaitie and chaenge o each ituation.

Pressure or results: A erie o interconnected goba crie ha tightened government budget

and raied reure to imrove eciency and demontrate vaue or money. Government

are increaingy ocuing on meauring reut (i.e. outut and outcome) aongide or even

intead o inut.

Thee new reaitie do not diminih the tranormative ower o goba goa. It i imortant to reca

that the Miennium Decaration and the MDG refect a univera conenu and ocu action arounda ma et o cear, oiticay-aient, meaurabe and time-bound ambition. They have heed teer

deveoment eort, increae mutua accountabiity and mobiie uort rom the deveoment

community and beyond. Againt thi background, the OECD recognie the chaenge in haing a

new, ambitiou, concie and reut-oriented ramework. Government ti have to decide whether

the new ramework wi buid on the exiting goa, otentiay incuding and agreeing on new one

(uch a the utainabe deveoment goa and other), or whether it wi tart rom cratch (i.e. a

One Word aroach).



The OECDs ideas on the post-2015 agendaThe OECD romote evidence-baed oicie or better ive wordwide. What can the Organiation

bring to the ot-2015 ramework dicuion in thi new context or deveoment? The OECD

ugget that the evoving ramework, incuding goa, target and indicator, houd be goba,

hoitic and meaurabe:

Global, holistic and measurable goals

Global: Moving beyond an exclusively developing country ocus to take a global perspective.

The od North/south diviion doe not work any onger in a gobaied word with new

emerging economie. some countrie outide the OECD are now driving goba growth and

aying a greater roe in many area (managing demograhic change and urban deveoment,

mitigating cimate change, rotecting natura caita, romoting gender equaity and women

emowerment, ghting communicabe dieae, enuring eace and tabiity, etc.). The

increaing interconnectedne o our word mean that the eect o nationa oicie are

oten et beyond nationa border. pot-2015 goa houd tart rom the remie that we area in thi together, that robem and oution do exit everywhere, and that a countrie

ace chaenge that houd, thereore, be addreed through co-oerative aroache. A ot-

2015 goa ramework need to be reevant to a countrie and houd rooe truy goba

goa with hared but not equa reonibiitie or a countrie.

Holistic: Encompassing the poverty and human development agenda o the current MDGs,

as well as the sustainable development goals. The reut houd be a inge, comrehenive

and coherent agenda with one et o goba goa. The new ramework houd ao recognie

other aect that uort a good quaity o ie. Thi mean nding way to meaure uch

thing a ocia and natura caita and we-being, and to move beyond average rogre

indicator to detect and monitor degree o inequaity in each dimenion o ie. A human rightaroach coud rovide the rame o reerence, whie an exicit ocu on gender equaity and

women emowerment wi continue to be neceary in it own right and or achieving a the

other goa.

Measurable and meaningul: Driven by goals which are defned and can be measured by

the countries themselves. We have earned that etting goa without the underying data and

tatitica ytem in ace i uee at bet and counterroductive at wort. Goa mut not

ony be meaurabe, but they mut ao be meaningu, i.e. they mut refect the reaitie and

rioritie o individua countrie. or exame, countrie that are aected by confict ace the

greatet chaenge in achieving the MDG. Their government are increaingy critica o the

MDG a they do not addre the core caue o ragiity: oitica articiation, ecurity and

jutice.

A two-level approach

How can thee rincie be imemented in ractice? The OECD ugget a two-eve aroach or

goa-etting:

1. Level one:Etabih a ma et o goba goa refecting univeray-agreed outcome.

2. Level two:Each country tranate the goba goa into ecic target and indicator which

refect their ecic eve o deveoment, context, reonibiity and caacity. They houd

ao incude equaity dimenion incuding gender equity and, where oibe, make u ue

o data diaggregated by ex.

Way and mean or achieving goa and monitoring rogre need to be exored in a roce that

enure oicy ace or country eaderhi, a agreed at the High-leve Meeting on the Miennium

Deveoment Goain 2010.5 Goa and target at both goba and country eve need to be uorted

by aroriate indicator to monitor rogre and by mechanim to evauate the eectivene o the

oicie in ace. Inormation need to be rovided on reevant oicy intrument (i.e. the way andmean o achieving the goa), other enaber and monitoring aciitie, incuding indicator o the

tatitica caacity o countrie.

Feshing out the proposa: 11 ideas for moving forwardIn haing the ot-2015 era, the OECD rooe 11 initia eement organied into two categorie:

regardingA) outcomes (i.e. goa); and B) tools (i.e. mean to achieve the goa) (igure 1).

Element 2a Developing a universal measure o educational success

Whie the imortance aced on rimary chooing, educationa acce and equity in the MDG wi be

a univera metric. The OECD i we aced to contribute to thi chaenge having buit ubtantia

exerience with the programme or Internationa student Aement (pIsA). Deveoed by the

OECD and rt conducted in 2000, pIsA rovide the mot comrehenive and rigorou internationa

rovide imortant tarting oint or the quetion o how vioence and confict can be refected in the

ot-2015 deveoment ramework.

A a artner in the Internationa Diaogue on peacebuiding and statebuiding, the OECD Internationa

Network on Confict and ragiity (INCA) wa at the centre o the oicy deveoment work behind

the New Dea or Engagement in ragie state. It i we aced to deveo urther thinking on how a

goa, target and indicator on eace and ecurity can enure the ot-2015 ramework eectivey

addree a ignicant barrier to deveoment.

Element 8a Ensuring policy coherence or development

A a reut o gobaiation, beyond aid iue uch a trade, migration, invetment, cimate change,

ecurity and technoogy ay an increaingy imortant roe in haing the roect o deveoing

countrie. Deveoed countrie need to enure that their beyond aid oicie uort, or at eat do not

undermine, rogre toward internationay-agreed deveoment goa, incuding the MDG. Urging

deveoing country armer to exort to word market whie imiting their acce to thee market,

or exame, ceary make no ene.

Thi ha been the ocu o the OECD agenda on oicy coherence or deveoment (pCD). It can he

to addre ytemic and tructura condition that contrain deveoment and incuive utainabe

kind o enabing environment or deveoment enviaged by the UN sytem Tak Team in it reort

Realizing the uture we want or all.

The OECD pCD initiative ha deveoed guidance on good intitutiona ractice to he government

romote pCD at the nationa eve, and i deveoing tronger evidence-baed anayi to inorm

oicy and deciion maker on the cot o incoherent oicie and the benet o more coherent

or deveoment. It i ao working to deveo pCD indicator, methodoogie and too to monitor

rogre and ae imact o divere oicie on deveoment. The OECD ha created an Internationa

pCD patorm and an onine ace dedicated to aciitating diaogue, knowedge haring and mutua

uch a ood ecurity, iicit nancia fow and cimate change, and to adat and reinorce pCD too

or romoting action and reonding better to the changing goba deveoment andcae.

Element 9a Sharing knowledge and engaging in policy dialogue and mutual learning

A highighted by the UN sytem Tak Team reort Realizing the uture we want or all, there are no

buerint or the mot eective enaber: adatation to oca condition wi be crucia. The OECD

To enhance it unction a a orum or eer earning with non-member countrie, the OECD wi be

aunching a Knowedge sharing Aiance, which aim to oen u it inter-diciinary oicy exertie



and eer earning network to artner countrie. leon can be earned jointy to ugrade artner

countrie and the OECD knowedge, oicy intrument, ramework and ki. urthermore,

the aiance wi trengthen artnerhi and co-oeration or better-inormed anayi reevant

and adated to artner countrie context and need. The Knowedge sharing Aiance can he

to identiy deveoment enaber, romote tranormation, generate imact, and contribute totrengthening government caacitie and artnerhi. secic exame coud incude the network

o oicy maker and ractitioner that are being etabihed under the auice o the strategy on

Deveoment. Thee network wi addre ecic deveoment chaenge that are common to

grou (or cuter) o OECD and non-OECD countrie:

1. the chaenge o natura reource-driven deveoment, uch a managing voatiity, imroving

taxation, romoting diverication, deveoing oca uier, and enhancing tranarency

and governance

2. the chaenge o rm integration in goba vaue chain and romoting innovation, ugrading

and emoyment

The OECD i ao deveoing innovative aroache or more eective and mutuay-benecia

coaboration with deveoing countrie. One exame i the Muti-Dimeniona Country Review

(MDCR). or many year the OECD ha conducted reguar review o OECD country oicie in

economic deveoment, environment, education and ki, invetment, deveoment aitance,

agricuture, energy and innovation, etc. severa non-OECD countrie have aked the OECD i they can

ao articiate in thee oicy review. Thee muti-dimeniona review wi take a comrehenive,

diagnotic aroach to the binding contraint on economic and ocia deveoment in non-member

countrie, incuding oicy interaction and coherence. MDCR target deveoment and are organied

around three mean to achieve it: growth, equity and utainabiity. An in-deth diagnotic hae ead

to the identication o the binding contraint to deveoment and then the review bend ectoraexertie into cro-cutting anaye. They wi rovide an oortunity to bring OECD exertie in

emoyment, ki, green growth and ocia oicie together to achieve the broader objective o

deveoment. Thee review have the otentia to he deveoing countrie better ne-tune the

deign and imementation o their deveoment trategie, which wi ikey incude goba goa a

we a nationa goa identied by the ecic country.

Element 10a Promoting the Global Partnership or Eective Development Co-operation

There i an urgent need to imrove ynergie among deveoment artner, incuding biatera and

mutiatera organiation, government, civi ociety and the rivate ector, and to enure that their

comementary action a work toward utainabe deveoment. MDG 8 a goba artnerhi

or deveoment ha been one o the mot chaenging to imement meaninguy. Thi ha been

in art becaue o the ack o a natura contituency or coaition to drive rogre. Thi changed in

2011 when the ourth High-leve orum on Aid Eectivene in Buan, Korea aid the oundation

or a new, incuive aroach to imroving deveoment co-oeration and artnerhi. The Goba

partnerhi or Eective Deveoment Co-oeration agreed at Buan by 160 nation (incuding

emerging economie) a we a internationa organiation and rereentative o civi ociety, the

rivate ector and ariamentarian oer an oortunity to deeen and utain oicy coaboration

among a wide range o takehoder.

The OECD ayed a key roe in haing the Goba partnerhi (Box 6) and it goba governance
