World leaders will assemble at the UN general assembly this month to
hear Ban Ki-moon set out his vision for what should replace the millennium development goals (MDGs). In an effort to include a wide range of voices in the process, the UN has held a global consultation, which has received responses from more than a million people.
People have called for the future development agenda to be based around the fundamental principles of human rights, embodying universal equality, justice and peace and security. Respondents have also called for a "data revolution" to enable them to access up-to-date information on development progress and allow governments to better shape their policies.
What sort of world do you want to see? We are asking Guardian readers to share their vision for the future. How important is education? What about healthcare? Should governments be more responsive to their citizens? Can access to data be truly transformative? Is climate change the biggest challenge to be overcome? Is it a combination of the above?
