On the 12
th of July 2021, AFRODAD’s Executive Director, Jason Rosario Braganza spoke at the High-level Political Forum on Sustainable Development hosted by the Economic and Social Council. The session discussed ways public and private financing can be scaled up to unlock investments for the achievement of the 2030 Agenda objectives against the backdrop of the COVID-19 recovery.
During his intervention, Jason’s overarching message focused on (i) the inadequacy of debt relief initiatives that slows down African countries recovery out of the global pandemic and (ii) the imbalance in decision-making power structures underlying the “Building back better” message that will continue perpetuate strong dependency and inequalities where developing countries remain voiceless in global policy development.
