Financing for Sustainable Development Report
Year: 2019
Content-Type: Report
Description: The 2019 Financing for Sustainable Development Report, the fourth report of the Inter-agency Task Force on Financing for Development, provides a comprehensive assessment of the state of sustainable finance, four years after the adoption of the Addis Ababa Action Agenda. Prepared by more than 60 UN agencies, programmes and offices and other relevant international organizations, the report brings together a wide range of expertise and perspectives. It puts forward a set of policy recommendations that are both ambitious and targeted at helping achieve tangible progress on financing for sustainable development in 2019 and beyond. Though six key messages emerge from this year’s analysis, the report puts special emphasis on the five SDGs under in-depth review at the July 2019 High-level Political Forum, on quality education, decent work and economic growth, reduced inequalities, climate action, and peace, justice and strong institutions. It also addresses 11 requests for analysis that Member States made in the outcome of the 2018 FfD Forum.
