On May 30th, 2020 the UN Major Group for Children and Youth Financing for Development Working Group held a dialogue session for young people from across the globe to discuss strategies Member States can use to finance a sustainable risk-informed recovery from the global crisis triggered by the COVID19 pandemic. 

As the pandemic has exacerbated existing vulnerabilities. Many countries are facing a decline in investments, growing debt burdens and severely reduced fiscal space. Thus, the session aimed to address the questions:

  • How do we finance the response to the pandemic?

  • Which policy options do we have to set the world on a risk informed resilient and sustainable recovery? How do we build back better?
