Check out the new Millenium Development Goals (MDG) Web Site!
The new site, called MDG Monitor, was just developed by the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (DESA), Relief Web and UNICEF to be a one-stop-shop for information on progress towards the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), globally and at the country level. It is designed for policymakers, journalists, students and people like us who are working in development.

Those of us working in reproductive health are most interested in goal #5 - Improve Maternal Health |
 |
and goal #6 - Combat HIV/AIDS, Malaria and other Diseases. |
You can browse by goal or by location and view maps of the entire world or individual countries. If you have a high bandwidth connection to the Web, you can also download Google Earth (about 13 MB) and view the entire site through Google Earth.
Speaking of maternal health, if you’d like to track new research coming out about maternal health, search INFO’s One Source database on this topic.
