Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
The Agenda for Development, adopted by the General Assembly after intense & extended consultations, represents one of the most farreaching agreements on the central issue of development ever attained by the international community. This comprehensive document not only addresses the familiar components of development, such as economic growth, trade, finance, science & technology, poverty eradication, employment & human resources development, but also places new emphasis on the role of democracy, human rights, popular participation, good governance & the empowerment of women. As such, it provides an all-encompassing framework for international cooperation on development - a central & evolving concern of the United Nations since its inception.
Setting and objectives -- Policy framework, including means of implementation -- Institutional issues and follow-up.
