The Message
• The UN Millennium Summit 2000 established a time bound (2015) and measurable goals and targets for combating poverty, hunger, environmental degradation etc. These goals are now placed in the heart of the global agenda.
• The paper presents the FIG profile as an global NGO of Land Professionals
• It is argued, that FIG should carefully consider how to best contribute to reaching the MDGs. FIG should identify their role in this process and spell out the areas where the global surveying profession can make a significant contribution.
• It is proposed to establish a Task Force to develop a FIG policy in this area in cooperation with the UN agencies and especially the World Bank.
