The Center for Global Development and FOREIGN POLICY Magazine unveiled the second annual Commitment to Development Index during a policy seminar on April 28, 2004.
The index rates rich countries' contributions to global development through measures of their aid, trade, migration, investment, security, technology, and environmental policies. This seminar offered an open and frank exchange over how rich nations define their roles and responsibilities in the global arena and where there may be room for improvement, seizing opportunities to lead in combating global poverty.
