  2. UN Millennium Development Goals Awards The Mission To engage the eyes and ears of the world in a momentous annual event which will continue to grow in impact and in global reach - and inspire a planetary conversation about the biggest issues facing humankind. Our challenge is to encourage the world to engage with the Millennium Development Goals and in so doing begin rewarding the real efgorts and sacrifjces of individuals, nations and organizations which have the most impact on bettering our world. The entertainment event will be twinned with a ‘live’ and interactive consensus forum which will act as a catalyst for engaging the world via social-networking in an ongoing dialogue surrounding the importance of reaching the Goals target date of 2015. The MDGs Awards must become the most important awards ceremony on earth.

  6. UN Millennium Development Goals Awards The Global Conversation Each year the MDG Awards event will be coupled with a round table forum featuring some of the world’s greatest thinkers. The 2008 Forum will be ‘hard- wired’ to the world-wide-web as an interactive forum featuring leaders within the UN and MDG communities and a special sitting of the World Summit for Nobel Peace Laureates in Stavenger, Norway. The twinned-location Forum will co-host a three hour dedicated session on the Millennium Development Goals - our greatest planetary challenge. Participants will include Nobel Laureates, UN leaders, Heads-of-State and celebrated luminaries - some in person and others through virutal connectivity. On an annual basis, further participation will grow to include schools, universities, NGOs and ministries - all invited in via the web-interaction to discuss the critical issues facing humanity and our planet and focus on solutions.

  7. UN Millennium Development Goals Awards The Nobel Link-up The special sitting of the World Summit for Nobel Peace Laureates will take place in Stavenger, Norway on the 12th of September. The distinguished panel plan to discuss the Millennium Development Goals via a ‘live’ interactive web-platform linked to a panel of luminaries in the United Nations in New York City. The Forum will close with a document of commentary and suggestions for consideration which will be delivered to the President of the UN General Assembly. This message will be handed on to the Secretary-General of the UN and thereafter to all our world leaders at the next General Assembly meeting. Some of the distinguished Nobel Laureates and luminaries who are supporting the 2008 Summit include: Muhummad Yunus, Kofj Annan, Desmond Tutu, Sir Bob Geldof, Al Gore, Aung San Suu Kyi. (A full list of attendees will be published shortly)

  8. UN Millennium Development Goals Awards The Stars Link-in The MDG Awards will be a major platform for spotlighting and showcasing the ongoing humanitarian efgorts of some of our most celebrated international stars. We will be featuring the campaigns and fjeld-trips of these celebrity Ambassadors and Messengers of Peace. Many of them will feature in our growing web-campaign - drawing attention to our world’s critical issues, encouraging participation and posing solutions. Look out for them at the MDG Awards event in September! Some of these distinguished fjgures who are actively involved in the push for a better world are: Angeline Jolie ‘UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador’, Michael Douglas ‘UN Messenger of Peace’ , Geri Halliwell ‘UNFPA Goodwill Ambassador’, Goerge Clooney ‘UN Ambassador of Peace’ and Nicole Kidman ‘UNIFEM Goodwill Ambassador’.

  9. UN Millennium Development Goals Awards The Democratic Highway Introducing an innovative social-networking portal: the HumaniSphere. Opening up a ‘democratic highway’ on the world-wide-web, linking the consensual voice of reason between individuals across all national, cultural and social divides around the globe. This unique solcial networking platform will unite people and organizations of the world from across all divedes - through a unique 3-D immersive web environ- ment. The HumaniSphere is planned as an open-source repository of knowledge, wisdom and solutions and is intended as an oracle for the world. It is currently under development by our team of designers and will resemble a convergence of Wikipedia,YouTube and Google .......... minus the trivia! We plan to launch it during the second UN MDGs Awards and Forum in Geneva in 2009.
