Outlined strengths of the MDGs, including being time-bound and simple.
On their weaknesses, he said that by focusing on a fairly narrow set of subjects, the MDGs missed important areas such as the environment and education.

He suggested thinking about who should be the target of the goals, and highlighted the difficulty of making good forecasts on where we want to be.

Noting that the Millennium Declaration was ignored because it referred to language already used before, he proposed using new language when developing the goals, such as declaring a right to official identity, security, domestic violence, migration, global commons on equal access and equal stewardship.
