what would it take to alleviate poverty in the Arab world? according to a UN expert group meeting this:
"Policy Recommendations Policy recommendations during the expert group meeting referred to the content of the upcoming UN 2007 MDG Report as well as to the cooperation between Governments of Arab countries and regional UN organizations. There was a general consensus for the need to harmonize national and international statistics, particularly in the areas of education, health, and employment. In addition, they agreed that national efforts have to be increased to improve the coverage and accuracy of data reporting. Several Government officials highlighted the importance of customizing the MDG’s to the Arab region. They agreed that more weight should be given to conflict-related difficulties and to the obstacles that conflict places on making progress towards the attainment of the MDGs. Some government representatives emphasized the need to create additional forums for the exchange of ideas and experiences between Arab countries in their efforts to attain the MDG’s. Several Government officials asked the UN organizations to assist in estimating the costs of attaining the MDGs, and accordingly, to offer financing solutions."
