Symposium calls for mutual benefits and new voices in global partnerships
“While Africa has made significant improvements and aims to foster sustainable transformative growth, the mixed results recorded with the MDGs warrant that we think global partnerships anew.” The call was made by Mr. Carlos Lopes, Executive Secretary of the UN Economic Commission for Africa (ECA) at the 2-day High-level Symposium on A renewed global partnership for development for the post-2015 era. The Executive Secretary elaborated on failures in mutual accountability that underline the global partnership for development as reflected in the downward trends in ODA flows, due in part to the Eurozone’s sovereign debt crisis; as well as the disappointing Aid for Trade commitments and disbursements.
