Join our one-week summer school, Finance 4 Development, and dive into the world of financial instruments driving global sustainable development!
This intensive course will explore how funding for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is structured, highlighting both the strengths and shortcomings of current financial mechanisms. You will learn about the gaps and challenges in designing, implementing, and ensuring the effectiveness of these instruments.
We take a unique approach, combining macro-economic and financial analysis with political economy perspectives to provide a holistic understanding of the complex environments in which these instruments operate. By zooming in on real-world cases and the latest trends in development finance, you'll gain insights into how public entities try to attract private flows in an attempt to address global challenges, from poverty reduction to climate change.
Whether you are a student of economics, finance, political science, or development studies, this course offers a valuable opportunity to deepen your knowledge and skills. Network with peers, engage in lively discussions, and learn from leading experts in the field.
Important to mention is that the summer school runs parallel with the EADI/IOB conference Shaping Sustainable Futures: global challenges, glocal solutions (29/6 - 2/7). Summer school participants have access to all activities of the conference.
