2005 offers a unique opportunity for the UK to help tackle world poverty.
The UK will play a leading role, through Presidencies of both the G8 (all year) and the European Union (2nd half of the year), in reaffirming the international community's commitment to the Millennium Development Goals
DFID is determined to make the most of these, and other opportunities in 2005, and will focus on stepping up progress on a number of key areas, including more aid, better aid, debt and trade.
