Résumé

The Millennium Development Goals adopted by United Nations member states in 2000 were meant to improve a variety of situations affecting the well-being of their inhabitants by 2015 : poverty, hunger, education, disease, gender equality and environmental sustainability. In this book, Chukwuebuka Dominic Onyechi evaluates the performance of Nigeria with respect to achieving these goals. He describes the challenges faced by the country and evaluates its successes and failures goal by goal to establish what worked, what didn't, and why.
He compares Nigeria's performance to those of a "peer group" of other countries in Sub-Saharan Africa to situate Nigeria's results within a broader regional context, and to draw lessons where appropriate. Dr. Onyechi's assessment becomes the basis for a series of recommendations he makes for Nigeria to achieve the next set of targets set by the UN member states : the Sustainable Development Goals, which aim to complete and broaden the process of improving the human condition by 2030.
This book is adapted from his Ph.D. dissertation.
