Special Eurobarometer 405: EU Development Aid and the Millennium Development Goals

Description

The eradication of poverty is the ultimate objective of EU development policy and with this in mind the EU is committed to achieving the UN's eight Millennium Development Goals (MDGs); these goals define global targets such as achieving primary education for all children, overcoming hunger or improving access to clean drinking water. With the Millennium Development Goals due to expire in 2015, a global debate is now underway about the framework which should replace them. This survey tests, among other things, the views of Europeans on the importance of development aid, on their personal commitment to helping the poor in the world and on their general awareness of extreme poverty. It attempts to gauge the views of people in Europe in four main areas: - Their general awareness of extreme poverty; - The perceived importance of development aid and of EU aid in the context of the economic crisis; - The commitment of EU citizens to tackling poverty; - Their awareness of the UN’s Millennium Development Goals, and their views on future development policy priorities. #####The results by volumes are distributed as follows: * Volume A: Countries * Volume AA: Groups of countries * Volume A' (AP): Trends * Volume AA' (AAP): Trends of groups of countries * Volume B: EU/socio-demographics * Volume B' (BP) : Trends of EU/ socio-demographics * Volume C: Country/socio-demographics ---- Researchers may also contact GESIS - Leibniz Institute for the Social Sciences: [https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer](https://www.gesis.org/eurobarometer)
