| Annotation | Following a series of summit meetings held by the United Nations (UN) and its specialised agencies, International Development Targets have been agreed by the entire UN membership. Women are twice as likely to live in poverty. The empowerment of women is therefore an essential precondition for the elimination of world poverty, which DFID's strategy aims to tackle. (RH). |
