Summit on International Development: Sustaining the New Era
Secretary Rice (Oct. 21): "This is truly a special and unique occasion: An opportunity for us to gather together -- both representatives of government and representatives of NGOs and members of civil society -- to support people around the world who are striving to lift themselves out of poverty, to forge lives of dignity for themselves and their families, and to build a world that is not only more stable, but more just. Not a perfect world, but a better world." Full Text
