Demands for the post-2015 agenda

for more political participation, equality and sustainability

The Post-2015 Agenda will replace the Millenium Development Goals (MDGs) and define new objectives and targets for international cooperation in the fight against poverty and sustainable development. Since the MDGs were not entirely achieved and correspond only partially to contemporary global challenges, there is a need to reform the agenda. In this paper, Sebastian Fuchs argues that a new agenda should create the conditions for increased political participation, equality and sustainability.
