  The World Bank’s Data Group and National Geographic have undertaken a partnership to raise awareness of the Millennium Development Goals 
(MDGs) by producing and disseminating a large-format, full-color wall map highlighting progress toward the goals. 
   
  The map, entitled A Global Agenda to End Poverty, is an informative tool to increase understanding of the MDGs among all audiences.
It has a special focus on educating secondary school students about the substance of the MDGs and what is needed to meet them.
