“Culture, Millennium Development Goals, and Beyond 2015”
Culture contributes to the creation of innovative policy-oriented solutions to issues affecting
all countries. Public diplomacy institutions organize various cultural and social projects to
enhance public awareness of these issues and promote their national image by contributing to the welfare of the international community.
Among many global issues, the UN’s Millennium Development Goals – which range from
eradicating extreme poverty to ensuring environmental sustainability and providing universal
primary education – serve as a blueprint for the world community.
The UN is now carrying on with an ambitious post-2015 development agenda.
In this session, Members will share their experiences and future plans to address and
support the UN’s development agendas with the arts and humanities. · Moderator
