Introduction
World Summit: Monitoring progress
One of the distinctive features of the World Summit for Children
was the enormous effort made to ensure regular, high-quality reporting
on progress. The Declaration and
Plan of Action have been monitored
more closely and in greater detail than any comparable set of international
commitments, with national, regional and global processes established
to track the follow-up on commitments.
The Secretary-General submitted reports to the 45th, 51st
and 53rd sessions
of the General Assembly on progress in the implementation of the
World Summit Declaration and Plan of Action, while UNICEF submitted
annual reports on global progress to its Executive Board. Key issues
and trends, including areas requiring increased attention, have
been highlighted in UNICEF flagship publications, The
Progress of Nations and The State of the
World's Children. The two key milestones for monitoring progress
include the Mid-Decade Review
and the end-decade review processes.
