MDG Priorities in Asia and the Pacific
Asia-Pacific MDG Report 2010/11
The Economic and Social Commission for Asia and the Pacific (ESCAP) promotes regional cooperation for inclusive
and sustainable economic and social development in Asia and the Pacific, a dynamic region characterized by growing
wealth, diversity and change, but also challenged with persistent poverty, environmental degradation, inequality
and insecurity. ESCAP supports member States with sound strategic analysis, policy options and technical cooperation
activities to address key development challenges and to implement innovative solutions for region-wide economic
prosperity, social progress and environmental sustainability. ESCAP, through its conference structure, assists
member States in forging a stronger, coordinated regional voice on global issues by building capacities to dialogue,
negotiate and shape development agenda in an age of globalization, decentralization and problems that transcend
borders. A key modality for this strategy is the promotion of intraregional connectivity and regional integration.
ADB's vision is an Asia and Pacific region free of poverty.
Its mission is to help its developing member countries substantially reduce poverty and improve the quality of
life of their people. Despite the region's many successes, it remains home to two-thirds of the world's poor: 1.8
billion people who live on less than $2 a day, with 947 million struggling on less than $1.25 a day. ADB is committed
to reducing poverty through inclusive economic growth, environmentally sustainable growth, and regional integration.
Based in Manila, ADB is owned by 67 members, including 48 from the region. Its main instruments for helping its
developing member countries are policy dialogue, loans, equity investments, guarantees, grants, and technical assistance.
