Question: How can we better fight global poverty?
Sachs: There's no sense in which private or voluntary actions can do this on their own, we need a mix of role of government, which is not doing its job right now.

But, government together with the private or voluntary NGO sectors, together we can partner with the poor, the hungry and those dying of illness to solve these problems.
