•  MDGs no longer fit for purpose – financial crisis, geopolitical realignments, energy independence

•  Rights approaches overshadow human capitals – basic education not enough, no STEM goals, no 4th IR Gen strategy

•  The Goals and Targets are lists not recipes for development – country contexts are diverse and changing, comparative advantage lies in difference, no theory of change

•  Ownership - target setters are not target getters •  Degraded Environments – climate change, seas without fish, air

without quality, land without fertility •  Social Cohesion – fragile states, forced migration, insecurity,

terrorism – Difference, Distribution and Desire •  Development Partner Fatigue and New Donors: Trillion Dollar

club, the BRIC(S), Sovereign Wealth Funds

Why the Sustainable Development Goals?
