About the product
This report presents an in-depth survey of progress and specific concerns for the Latin American and Caribbean region as the General Assembly undertook a review of the Millennium Development Goals in September 2005. The analysis looks at the differences across countries in terms of their chances of attaining the Goals and, wherever possible, the differences between trends in various segments of the population as a means of helping to pinpoint the areas in which efforts must be redoubled in order to ensure that advances are of benefit to all. This is supplemented by an integrated analysis of macroeconomic factors as they relate to the Goal of eradicating poverty.
