In 2000 in order to expedite the development process eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) came into play. Progress was made in some areas, particularly in the reduction of extreme poverty and hunger and improving access to drinking water. However, the progress has been uneven, both among and within countries. Deadline of MDG is fast approaching and focus has now moved to identifying new goals and developing of a new framework. NFN has been coordinating and facilitating campaigns regarding MDGs very successfully in Nepal for the last ten years. The conclusions from a workshop that was held were documented and developed as the Nepal Civil Society Demand Charter for Post 2015 Sustainable Development Framework. This document represents the voices of Nepalese CSOs and it will be used as an advocacy tool in the days to come.
