Taskforce Policy Report

Toward A Brighter FutureWe hope you find the Taskforce’s report useful and stimulating. As members of the Taskforce, we served in our personal capacities rather than as representatives of our organizations. Together, we were able to generate substantial, although not absolute, agreement on our recommendations. Members of the Taskforce and its Secretariat consulted widely with experts across Europe, Canada and the United States, including representatives from developing countries, international organizations, environmentalists, military officers, trade specialists and many others. We commit to enlarge that exchange of ideas, through the launches of this report and the outreach work we will build around it throughout 2009 and beyond. We hope that dialogue and exchange will be followed by focused actions, and that these actions will lead to a developing world with far more opportunity, a world free from poverty and from fear.
