Advance global health: achieve the Millennium Development Goals
Letter dated 16 September 2010 from the Permanent Representative of Australia to the United Nations addressed to the President of the General Assembly
I have the honour to refer to the declaration entitled “Advance global health: achieve the Millennium Development Goals”, which was adopted at the sixty-third annual Conference of the United Nations Department of Public Information for Non-Governmental Organizations on 1 September 2010, in Melbourne, Australia (see annex). Australia was privileged to host this important Conference as a contribution to civil society preparations for the High-level Plenary Meeting of the General Assembly on the Millennium Development Goals, to be held from 20 to 22 September.
I should be grateful if you would have the present letter and its annex circulated as a document of the General Assembly under agenda item 115.
(Signed) Gary Quinlan
Permanent Representative
