VENRO’s project “Perspektive 2015 – Armutsbekämpfung braucht Beteiligung” (Prospects for 2015 – Fighting Poverty needs Participation) aims at broadening, strengthening and further developing the international consensus around the MDGs through the inclusion of civil society’s points of view in the public debate. To achieve this, the project publishes a monthly newsletter, arranges conferences and workshops and issues publications containing analysis and background information to MDG-related topics. www.http://www.2015.venro.org/

The project Afrikas Perspektive – Europas Politik (Prospects for Africa – Europe’s Policies) aims at strengthening the partnership between Africa and Europe. At the EU-Africa summit in Lisbon at the end of 2007 African and European heads of state decided on a joint strategy. VENRO is part of this ongoing process in which civil society plays an important part. www.prospects-for-africa.de
