2015 was designated the European Year for Development by the European Parliament and the Council of the European Union in Decision No 472/2014/EU. In 2015 the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) came to an end and the process of defining an international development agenda to replace them culminated with the adoption of the (2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development ), which includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals. The United Nations Climate Change Conference COP21, which aims to achieve a global agreement on climate action, will also be held at the end of 2015. In this context 2015 was considered a timely opportunity to raise awareness on the European Union's current development cooperation and to encourage engagement of EU citizens in development policy. == Objectives == The objectives of the European Year for Development are to: # Inform Union citizens about EU development cooperation, the results that the EU, together with Member States, has achieved as a global player and will continue to pursue # # Foster direct involvement, critical thinking and active interest of Union citizens and stakeholders in development cooperation. # # Raise awareness of the mutual benefits of EU development cooperation, achieve a broader understanding of policy coherence for development and foster a sense of joint responsibility, solidarity and opportunity in an increasingly interdependent world. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「European Year for Development 2015」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
