Two-thirds of developing countries are on track or close to meeting key targets for tackling extreme poverty and hunger. This year’s Global Monitoring Report 2011: Improving the Odds of Achieving the MDGs by the World Bank delves into country performance and reveals a diverse, and often hopeful, picture. For example, among developing countries that are falling short on the Millennium Development Goals, half are close to becoming on-track. With improved policies and faster growth, these countries can still achieve the targets in 2015 or soon after.
