Abstract
The adoption of the United Nations Millennium Declaration (United Nations 2000) at the UN Millennium Summit, held September 6–8, 2000, was the culmination of a decade of major UN conferences and summits, addressing the world’s global challenges “[on] the environment (Rio 1992), population (Cairo 1994), social development (Copenhagen 1995), and the status of women (Beijing 1995).” So, while the Millennium Declaration “was ultimately drafted in a UN conference room, […] its contents had roots in the outcomes from the 1990s conferences” just mentioned (McArthur 2014, 6).
