Abstract
This policy brief, on the relevance and the possibility of attaining the Millennium Development Goals by 2015, is based on various studies carried out by a number of national departments and international organizations. Key among them is a recent study which looks at the economic impact of different options for creating and using fiscal space to attain outstanding Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). In this exercise, which made use of a Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model, fiscal space was simulated by mobilizing additional revenue (resources) through increased domestic revenue and a number of possible scenarios were drawn up and analysed.-
