In his latest contribution on financing SDGs in the Global South, Dr Debapriya Bhattacharya, Southern Voice Steering Committee Chair, provides important insights from a Southern perspective. He observes a serious mismatch between the global discourse on financing for development and the realities on the ground, as well as a serious lack of political energy.
The contribution, titled Sustainable Development Goal financing in the developing countries: Like clouds and wind without rain, has been published under Chapter 2 on “Broadening Perspectives”, in the second part of the Financing the UN Development System: Opening Doors report.
The report is the result of a collaborative partnership between the Dag Hammarskjöld Foundation (the Foundation) and the United Nations Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office (MPTFO).
