also compromised themselves to work towards the implementation
of the Sanya Declaration and, within a year, gather for the follow-up
of the results and prepare a 2006-2015 Plan of Action, focusing
the Millennium Development Goals in the Family Perspective.

national, regional and local authorities and communities to be
exposed and interact with some of the world’s innovators
in the Family Perspectives field.
