Description
While the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) financing gap keeps growing to reach USD 4 trillions , International Development Co-operation and the sustained growth of Official Development Assistance (ODA) are challenged by shifting domestic and external political priorities. The OECD Global Outlook on Financing for Sustainable Development 2025: Towards a more resilient and inclusive architecture highlights how geo-economic fragmentation is contributing to historical poverty and inequality setbacks in the poorest countries. The OECD is supporting countries to navigate between ambition and pragmatism to renew the global financing for development agenda at the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4) to be held on 30 June – 3 July 2025 in Seville, Spain. The report provides parliamentarians from OECD countries with critical insights on reforms needed to make the case but also hold governments accountable for a more resilient and inclusive global development finance architecture to better respond to global challenges such as climate change, global health, displacements of populations, or threats to democracy.
