It is effectively passing the buck to the United Nations to deal with in September, when world leaders will address all of the Millennium Development Goals.<\/p>\n<p><strong>U.S. Executive Director Sheila Nix said:<\/strong> &#8220;Eight of the world&#8217;s most powerful people had an opportunity today to support the world&#8217;s most vulnerable people &#8211; mothers and their children. The resources announced by the G8 are a start but fall far short of the amount needed to get two of the most neglected Millennium Development Goals back on track.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The worth of the G8 is measured by its record on keeping promises, not making them. We have yet to see a strong framework for transparency and accountability, which is necessary to ensure this money is used effectively to produce real results for the women and children who need it most.
