The GPI Network Team was part of the @FordFoundation Global Governance program partners meeting this week that focused on strengthening partnerships and building new alliances around economic justice. We remain steadfast in our vision to build a strong civil society community.

Today was the kick off for the #SummitOfTheFuture with Day 1 of the #ActionDays dedicated to #YouthLead the Future events. It is an honor and privilege to represent @devinitorg and @GlobalPubInvt at this important meeting.

It is always a pleasure to catch up with @SalihBooker. #Partnership #UNGA79 @devinitorg @GlobalPubInvt @FordFoundation

This map made me think. What can other Africa countries learn from Kenya and Nigeria? And how are the funds raised translates in the economies and lives of people of the respective countries? Thoughts?

@WilliamsRuto commitments for #IDA21 should grow from $93bn to $120bn, and we should also aim to double the #AfricaDevelopmentFund to $25bn to complement #IDA. #IDAWorks

H.E @SuluhuSamia emphasized on the importance of #IDA long-term concessional financing towards maternal health, rural electrification, infrastructure development, water and sanitation in #Tanzania. She highligted IDA’s important role as a leverage for other resources. #IDAWorks

#IDA21 is not only about the money, but also the vision, leadership, and political will. It is about empowering communities, building capacities, and nurturing innovation. The problem is not lack of resources, but a global economic system that is unjust to Africa. #IDAworks

#Africa needs social economic transformation. The focus should be on achieving low cost of production and promoting exports vs imports. We need financing for transport (railways), electricity, and manufacturing, and not loans for capacity building (seminars) #IDA21 #IDAworks

#IDA is a cornerstone and lifeline for Africa’s development and sustainability. It is a win-win outcome. What is missing is missing is scale and design. Africa commits to fiscal discipline, domestic resource mobilization, fight corruption, and enhance transparency &accountability
