The event led by the United Nations (UN) will be chaired by Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and Jamaican Prime Minister Andrew Holness.

The World Bank, IMF, and other institutions will also be present. Countries such as Argentina, Haiti, Costa Rica, and Colombia, as well as the EU, France, Germany, Japan, and the United Kingdom are expected to participate in the discussions.

This is a “joint initiative to accelerate the global response to the significant economic and human impacts of COVID-19 and advance concrete solutions for the development emergency.”

The so-called “High-Level Event on Financing for Development in the Era of COVID-19” aims to rethink the recovery of the global economy, based on new pillars and greater focus on issues of social justice and climate.

Last week, President Jair Bolsonaro did not participate in the World Health Assembly, which was attended by Colombia and Paraguay. Brazil also missed out on an international alliance for the development of a vaccine for COVID-19. However, the government is evaluating how to engage in the endeavor.

Check below the areas that will be discussed at the UN event to mobilize the necessary financing post-pandemic

  • Expand liquidity across the global economy;
  • Address debt vulnerabilities; curb illicit financial flows;
  • Increase external financing for inclusive growth and job creation;
  • Strategies for countries to recover better, face climate change, and restore the balance between the economy and nature.
