Live web chat with Douglas Alexander
Douglas Alexander, Secretary of State for International Development, takes part in a live webchat on the Downing Street website on 7 May from 13:00 BST.
This is an opportunity to log in at the Number 10 website and post questions to the minister on a number of issues including the progress being made in reaching the Millennium Development Goals, especially the drive to achieve universal education and reductions in maternal mortality.
This is a chance to find out what the UK government is doing to fight poverty in some of the world's least developed countries, what difference the UK is making in tackling climate change in Africa and how ethical consumers can make a difference through their weekly shop.
In the week the Business Call to Action launches you can ask Douglas Alexander how this will help bring the private sector on board to boost economic development. The minister will also take questions on the wider development agenda.
