A/RES/64/299
Staying engaged to achieve the Millennium Development Goals
79. We request the General Assembly to continue to review, on an annual basis,
the progress made towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals,
including in the implementation of the present outcome document. We request the
President of the General Assembly at its sixty-eighth session to organize a special
event in 2013 to follow up efforts made towards achieving the Millennium
Development Goals.
80. We reaffirm the role that the Charter of the United Nations and the General
Assembly have vested in the Economic and Social Council as a principal body for
coordination, policy review, policy dialogue and recommendations on issues of
economic and social development and for the follow-up to the Millennium
Development Goals, particularly through the annual ministerial review and the
Development Cooperation Forum. We look forward to the upcoming review of the
strengthening of the Council during the current session of the Assembly.
81. We request the Secretary-General to report annually on progress in the
implementation of the Millennium Development Goals until 2015 and to make
recommendations in his annual reports, as appropriate, for further steps to advance
the United Nations development agenda beyond 2015.
