dc.description.abstract | This article presents a proposal for assessing the progress of least developed countries towards the achievement of the Millennium Development Goals over the period 2000–2015. Composite indices are built to perform spatial and temporal benchmarking. For that, we rely on P2 Distance method. The results are contrasted with other indices developed under a multi-criteria approach with a double reference point. The main findings are that all the countries have improved their situation and country disparities have been reduced. Cambodia and Ethiopia have registered the best trends and South Sudan and Timor-Leste show the worst performance. Considering the position in the ranking of 2015, Rwanda, and Bhutan performed the best, and Somalia, and Chad ranked in the last position. Having now reached the end of the Millennium Development Goals period, the gap with respect to the world average indicates that much work remains to be done in the 2030 Agenda. | es_ES |
