Commission on Social Development meets each February to review the goals set for eradicating poverty, obtaining social integration, and providing employment. Governments and NGOs dialogue together in order to bring the voices of the marginalized to the table. Visit the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs and the Millennium Campaign's webpages to learn more about
social development.

Have you heard about the United Nations Millennium Development Goals? All 191 UN member states have committed themselves to meeting these goals by 2015. We invite you to reflect on these goals and how you can do your part to meet them and provide fullness of life for billions in our global community. How can we help transform our world?
