  3. Trade and investment in the post-2015 agenda: what role should the EU play?

    Opinion - Articles and blogs - 1 April 2013

    The focus brought by the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) has produced noteworthy achievements in improving health and education outcomes as well as reducing poverty. But a key limitation of the MDGs was their failure to include dimensions of structural transformation and integrate the development of productive capacities. This meant that while issues of social development were largely addressed (mostly through aid), the MDGs did not pay sufficient attention to economic development. Now is the time to address this imbalance.

  4. Paying for progress: how will emerging post-2015 goals be financed in the new aid landscape?

    Publication - Discussion papers - 31 March 2013
    This paper explores options for financing some of the potential post-2015 goals within the changing development cooperation landscape. It focusses on five sectors: education, health, water and sanitation, sustainable energy and food and agriculture. It asks whether – and how much – additional finance is needed to meet the likely goals; and looks at what this implies for the design of the post-2015 framework.
  5. Business and a post-2015 development framework: where next?

    Publication - Research reports and studies - 28 March 2013
    This paper provides a contribution to the discussion on how the private sector can best be involved in any global development framework that follows the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs), post-2015. While there have been conversations on this issue, they tend to be fairly broad and general. So far, there have been very few specific suggestions (of which we are aware at the time of writing) on how private sector actors can actually contribute to the post-2015 agenda, or how the design and delivery mechanisms of future goals could help shape private sector behaviours, where relevant. This paper aims to help fill this gap.
