UNITED NATIONS (Yonhap News) ― South Korean Foreign Minister Kim Sung-hwan was selected as a high-profile international adviser Tuesday to recommend agenda for global development and prepare visions for social and environmental targets beyond 2015.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon asked the 26-member panel to present “a bold yet practical development vision next year” to the

193 U.N. member states to replace the 2015 Millennium Development Goals, the U.N.-initiated anti-poverty and sustainable development targets. 

“I look forward to the panel’s recommendations on a global post-2015 agenda with shared responsibilities for all countries and with the fight against poverty and sustainable development at its core,” Ban said in a statement, announcing the appointments.

The panel’s three co-chairs are Presidents Susilo Bambang Yudhoyono of Indonesia and Ellen Johnson Sirleaf of Liberia and British Prime Minister David Cameron.

The remaining 23 advisers include Kim, former Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan, former German President Horst Kohler, Jordan’s Queen Rania and Colombia’s Foreign Minister Maria Angela Holguin.

The panel will hold its first meeting in late September and is expected to submit its findings to the U.N. chief in the first half of 2013, according to the statement.
