"This report addresses development and governance in the Pacifi c region. It is the second in a series of annual reports that provide an update on progress towards the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and key governance indicators using the latest available information. The information it provides is intended to help governments design policies and programs that hasten progress towards the MDGs. The report fi nds that the Pacifi c as a whole is signifi cantly off track to meet the MDGs by 2015. Some countries are translating economic growth into reducing poverty and meeting the MDGs. However, overall the Pacifi c is stalling and falling short of the goals. Despite large investments in service delivery, public spending by Pacifi c governments is generally not leading to better development outcomes. Development partners bring signifi cant resources for investment in growth and services in the region. But most Pacifi c governments are not managing aid as well as they could. While there have been positive changes in the way development partners and governments work together, the report shows resources are neither suffi ciently coordinated nor prioritised behind effective country and sectoral development plans and strategies. This report sets out a compelling case for change—for a combined effort by Pacifi c island countries and development partners to improve governance and development coordination. Together, Pacifi c island countries and their development partners have the resources necessary to turn ambition into reality and make faster progress towards the MDGs."
