Countries Told to Step Up Global Goals Funding Right Away – Urgent Crisis Alert!
Дефицит финансирования развития в мире на сегодняшний день оценивается в 4,2 триллиона долларов в год по сравнению с 2,5 триллионами долларов до начала пандемии. К такому выводу пришли авторы доклада ООН о финансировании развития, который во вторник представила первый заместитель Генсека Амина Мохаммед.
Она подчеркнула, что в основе мирового кризиса устойчивого развития лежат проблемы финансирования: долговое бремя и огромные затраты по займам не позволяют развивающимся странам двигаться вперед.
При этом растущая геополитическая напряженность, климатические катастрофы и глобальный кризис стоимости жизни затронули миллиарды людей, подорвав прогресс в сфере здравоохранения, образования и других Целей устойчивого развития. До крайнего срока достижения ЦУР – 2030 года – осталось всего шесть лет, напоминают в ООН.
«Мы столкнулись с тем, что, я думаю, можно назвать серьезным кризисом развития, кризисом, в основе которого лежат финансовые проблемы, который требует огромных международных усилий», – сказала Мохаммед.
Если нынешние тенденции сохранятся, по оценкам ООН, почти 600 миллионов человек, более половины из которых – женщины, в 2030 году будут продолжать жить в крайней нищете.

В докладе показано, что только масштабное увеличение финансирования и реформа международной финансовой архитектуры помогут международному сообществу достичь Целей устойчивого развития (ЦУР) к намеченному сроку.
«Нам срочно нужен приток инвестиций для нашей программы устойчивого развития, но, как говорится в докладе, это зависит от фундаментальных сдвигов в глобальной экономике и в лидерстве государственного сектора», – заявила Мохаммед.
«Нам нужно, чтобы страны взяли на себя конкретные обязательства по преобразованию экономических и финансовых систем, обеспечивающих устойчивое развитие. Главная идея доклада о финансировании развития за 2024 год не может быть яснее: мы должны сделать выбор сейчас – либо мы вместе добьемся успеха, либо можем потерпеть неудачу», – подытожила она.
Lila Montgomery is a celebrated journalist who has a deep commitment to global affairs and humanitarian issues. Her extensive reporting on United Nations initiatives across the globe has brought critical stories to the forefront, stories that affect communities everywhere.
She emphasized that at the core of the global sustainable development crisis are financing issues: debt burdens and huge borrowing costs prevent developing countries from moving forward. Growing geopolitical tensions, climate disasters, and the global life cost crisis have affected billions of people, undermining progress in healthcare, education, and other Sustainable Development Goals. With only six years left until the deadline for achieving the SDGs in 2030, the UN reminds us, “We are facing what I think can be called a serious development crisis, a crisis rooted in financial problems, which requires immense international efforts,” said Mohammed. If current trends persist, according to the UN’s estimates, nearly 600 million people, over half of whom are women, will continue to live in extreme poverty in 2030.
Are there any specific proposals mentioned in the report to address the financing deficit and support developing countries?
