On the sidelines of the World Economic Forum’s Humanitarian and Resilience Investing Initiative’s Frontier Markets Impact Meeting in Geneva, Devex teamed up with Radio Davos for a special podcast episode. The conversation was cohosted by Devex President and Editor-in-Chief Raj Kumar and Radio Davos host Robin Pomeroy.

Driven by shrinking government aid and escalating global needs, the global development sector is facing serious financing headwinds — a financial shock wave comparable to the 2008 crisis.

These changes are fundamentally altering the global development architecture, forcing a pivot away from reliance on official development assistance.

To maintain progress, the discussion highlighted the crucial need to mobilize private capital and build trust-based, sustainable financial systems.

To explore these critical shifts, they sat down with Carla Haddad Mardini, director of UNICEF's private fundraising and partnerships, and Julienne Oyler, CEO of Inkomoko.
