Abstract: Jan Vandemoortele argues that universal coverage of an integrated package of good quality basic social services is one of the most effective and least expensive ways for reducing poverty. The international development goals for 2015 will not be met if inter-sectoral complementarities are not better exploited. This point is illustrated through the ‘education vaccine’ against HIV.
