The New Humanitarian

Can Global Public Investment replace aid financing as we know it? | Rethinking Humanitarianism


Listen Later

All contribute, all decide, all benefit: the three pillars of a bold idea to transform how global public goods are financed. Once laughed off as a pie-in-the-sky idea, Global Public Investment (GPI) has been gaining traction in recent years and is increasingly seen as a plausible paradigm shift for a traditional aid system beholden to the whims of wealthy countries and stuck in a failing donor-recipient binary.

Host Heba Aly sits down with two people working to make GPI "technically sound" and "politically attractive": Solange Baptiste, executive director of the International Treatment Preparedness Coalition (ITPC), and Jonathan Glennie, co-founder of the Global Nation think tank and author of "The Future of Aid: Global Public Investment".
