This Week in Global Dev: #106: The next steps after FfD4, and how UN programs are affected by aid cuts


Listen Later

This week, our conversation features Shari Spiegel, chief of the Financing for Sustainable Development Office at the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs. She joins host Adva Saldinger and Senior Global Reporter Colum Lynch to reflect on the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development, as well as dig into the legacy she hopes the summit will have.
With the changing geopolitical landscape, we also discuss the role played by multilateral development banks and the private sector in achieving global development goals.
This week we reported that the U.S. is clawing back more than $1 billion in funding to the United Nations. We take a look at how it will affect the organization’s initiatives, including peacekeeping operations and human rights promotion.
