Africa's young voices
 
At the present rate, Africa will miss key targets for reducing poverty by more than 100 years. Universal primary education for all would not be provided until the year 2130.

As part of the BBC World Service Trust project, '2015 where will we be?', BBC producers travelled to Rwanda, Sierra Leone, South Africa and Uganda to look at the challenges and successes of meeting the Millennium Development Goals in Africa.
