Official development assistance is insufficient in areas of poverty and inequality<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

2024<\/span>Year<\/span>2<\/span>moon,<\/span>OECD<\/span>The Secretariat has for the first time<\/span>OECD Development Assistance Committee (<\/span>OECD-DAC<\/span>)<\/span>Member States<\/span>how<\/span>Tackling poverty and inequality in development cooperation<\/span>The problem unfolded<\/span>Survey.

To make up for the limitations of existing measurement methods, the report proposes a more detailed and systematic indicator system (focusing on multiple dimensions, including per capita official development assistance of countries with different income levels, areas related to poverty reduction and inequality, climate change, and local investment in various countries) to more comprehensively assess the investment and effect of official development assistance in reducing poverty and inequality. The analysis results are as follows:<\/span><\/p>\n

Per capita ODA allocations to the extremely poor have fallen.<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Data shows that<\/span>2022<\/span>Year<\/span>Above average<\/span>Income countries<\/span>\uff08<\/span>UMICs<\/span>)<\/span>Extremely poor people<\/span>per capita<\/span>The least developed countries (LDCs) receive the most official development assistance<\/span>LDCs<\/span>) Extremely poor people<\/span>per capita<\/span>Official development assistance<\/span>3<\/span>times, and<\/span>Lower middle income<\/span>nation(<\/span>LMICs<\/span>) Extremely poor people<\/span>per capita<\/span>Official development assistance is also higher than<\/span>Least Developed Countries (<\/span>LDCs<\/span>)<\/span>High<\/span>1.3<\/span>times.

This distribution shift is mainly caused by two reasons:<\/span>First,<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Prioritization of crisis response.<\/b><\/span><\/strong>2022<\/span>Ukraine (<\/span>Lower middle-income countries<\/span>) received a large amount of official development assistance due to the war, breaking the traditional aid pattern.<\/span>Second,<\/b><\/span><\/strong>The differences in the impact of the epidemic.<\/b><\/span><\/strong>COVID-19<\/span>epidemic<\/span>Of<\/span>back<\/span>, the least developed countries<\/span>of the population living in extreme poverty has increased<\/span>16%<\/span>,and<\/span>Lower middle-income countries<\/span>and<\/span>Upper middle-income countries<\/span>of people living in extreme poverty<\/span>but<\/span>Respectively reduced<\/span>31%<\/span>and<\/span>78%<\/span>However, ODA allocations have not<\/span>able<\/span>timely<\/span>response<\/span>To more effectively target the countries and populations most in need of assistance, the report recommends<\/span>Adjustment<\/span>official development assistance<\/span>distribute<\/span>, for example<\/span>Above average<\/span>cut official development assistance to high-income countries by two thirds and redirect these resources to<\/span>Least Developed Countries<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

place<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Level data<\/b><\/span><\/strong>insufficient.<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Currently, data on official development assistance allocations are mostly concentrated at the country level, making it difficult to assess whether aid is actually reaching the poorest and most vulnerable groups in the country.<\/span>place<\/span>The insufficient coverage and reliability of data at the national level also make it difficult to provide a basis for precise policy making.<\/span><\/p>\n

The above data show that official development assistance resources are gradually dispersed to deal with multiple global crises, and insufficient investment is made in the areas of poverty and inequality. In the future, optimizing the allocation of official development assistance needs to focus on the poorest regions and the most vulnerable groups. Even with limited resources, exploring more efficient allocation methods is an important way to reduce global poverty and inequality.<\/span>path<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Green transformation is imperative, but the transformation process also has negative effects. For example, in the moderately promoted energy transformation, if there is a lack of supportive socio-economic policies, highly polluting and intensive industries may cause a large-scale employment crisis, and it is estimated that nearly<\/span>7800<\/span>Millions of jobs could be lost, while regional and gender inequalities could be exacerbated.<\/span><\/p>\n

In the process of green transformation, developing countries face more challenges in addressing poverty and inequality. These countries need to not only achieve climate mitigation and adaptation goals, but also balance social and economic development needs. Climate adaptation faces high costs, and the actual demand is currently the amount of adaptation financing.<\/span>10<\/span>to<\/span>18<\/span>At the same time, more than half of low-income and middle-income countries are already at or close to high debt stress, which has led to cuts in public budgets and further caused serious shortages in funds for public services and social security.<\/span>2024<\/span>Average net interest payments as a share of government revenue in low-income and middle-income countries in 2018<\/span>8%<\/span>The poorest countries urgently need new sources of financing to fill these funding gaps.<\/span><\/p>\n

First,<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Strengthening poverty reduction<\/b><\/span><\/strong>and reduce inequality<\/b><\/span><\/strong>mission<\/b><\/span><\/strong>, committed to eliminating poverty and reducing inequality through precise targeting, clear standards and improved toolkits.<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Specific recommendations for action include: Institutions should reaffirm their commitment to eliminating monetary and multidimensional poverty,<\/span>As we address climate change and other priorities,<\/span>Bundle<\/span>Reducing poverty and inequality as a core mission<\/span>; Systematically integrate poverty and inequality perspectives into development cooperation, clarify the allocation principles of official development assistance, coordinate financing targets, and ensure that financial support is consistent with policy needs to eliminate poverty and reduce inequality.<\/span>pass<\/span>Establish clear standards, guidelines and measures<\/span>,<\/span>Ensure accurate coverage<\/span>The poorest and most vulnerable countries and groups.<\/span>At the same time, research and evaluation will be carried out to ensure that negative spillover effects are mitigated as much as possible in the implementation of poverty reduction, inequality reduction policies and green transformation.<\/span><\/p>\n

Second, increase the official development assistance budget, strengthen the coordination between development and climate finance, and improve the accessibility and effectiveness of financing.<\/b>.<\/span><\/strong>Specific action recommendations include: Member States must fulfill their obligation to<\/span>0.7%<\/span>As<\/span>official development assistance<\/span>international commitments and increase the proportion of funding targeting poverty and inequality in the overall budget<\/span>;<\/span><\/strong>Reduce developing countries<\/span>Restrictions on access to funds<\/span>,like<\/span>Eliminate co-financing requirements, enhance project planning capabilities, and simplify funding application processes<\/span>;<\/span>Improving access to and delivery of climate funds<\/span>,<\/span>Reduce fragmentation and duplication of development finance and ensure funds are used more efficiently<\/span>touch<\/span>Regions that need support<\/span>; expand loan guarantees for clean energy projects, promote regional cooperation, provide technical assistance, and enhance the renewable energy development capabilities of partner countries;<\/span>Nationally determined contributions serve as a strategic tool to link climate action and development goals, supporting<\/span>host country<\/span>exist<\/span>Prepare new<\/span>One round<\/span>Nationally Determined Contributions<\/span>plan<\/span>hour<\/span>Integrate a poverty and inequality perspective to ensure that climate action takes social equity into account.<\/span><\/p>\n

Third,<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Advocating for an inclusive and rights-based green transition<\/b><\/span><\/strong>, improve public acceptance of green transformation and enhance the resilience and sustainability of the transformation.<\/b><\/span><\/strong>Specific action recommendations include: establishing inclusive partnerships, strengthening the broad participation of local communities in the implementation of green transformation projects, and supporting community capacity building; monitoring environmental impacts and conducting gender analysis in nationally determined contribution plans and energy transformation projects;<\/span>Comply with international laws, standards and recommendations, such as<\/span>OECD<\/span>Code of Responsible Business Conduct,<\/span>make sure<\/span>Partnerships and<\/span>fund<\/span>Medium protection<\/span>Related<\/span>rights and interests<\/span>;<\/span>Integrate global climate justice considerations into national development strategies and mechanisms,<\/span>positive<\/span>Managing climate action may<\/span>bring<\/span>negative cross-border impacts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Thinking: The challenge of turning the report's recommendations into action<\/b><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n

Although poverty and inequality have long been discussed on the global development agenda, this is by no means<\/span>"It is not a commonplace, but a key bottleneck for sustainable development of the global economy, society and environment. The report puts forward a series of specific recommendations, including how to optimize the allocation of official development assistance funds and how to make climate finance more effectively benefit the most vulnerable countries and people. However<\/span>OECD<\/span>The real test for the United Nations and other international development partners is how to translate these recommendations into practical action.<\/span><\/p>\n

Although the total amount of official development assistance has maintained a steady growth in recent years, the increase is far less than the actual demand.<\/span>OECD<\/span>The economic weakness of the member countries makes it difficult for most countries to fulfill their<\/span>GNI<\/span>of<\/span>0.7%<\/span>International commitments for development aid. With limited resources, donors often need to make trade-offs among multiple priorities, which can weaken financial support and policy attention to areas of poverty and inequality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Official development assistance (ODA) is not only a key resource for development cooperation, but has also long been part of the foreign policy tools of donor countries, serving their political, economic or geostrategic interests. To maintain ODA's focus on poverty and inequality, it is necessary to re-examine its institutional design, accurately balance crisis response and long-term development needs, and ensure that aid is effectively targeted at key areas, countries and groups.<\/span><\/p>\n

There is still much room for improvement in climate finance in promoting adaptation investment and coordinating with poverty reduction and inequality reduction strategies.<\/span>Climate Fund<\/span>Make systemic changes from allocation to execution mode to better<\/span>land<\/span>Meeting the actual needs of partner countries. However, this cannot be achieved overnight and needs to be achieved gradually through continuous dialogue and joint efforts among donor countries, development implementation agencies, Southern countries and civil society.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is worth noting that this edition of the report includes opinion articles from experts from South-South cooperation countries such as China, Brazil, Indonesia, and Bangladesh. This move shows that in the context of green transformation, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) should be integrated into the<\/span>SDGs<\/span>) back on track, the OECD Development Assistance Committee<\/span>Need to strengthen cooperation with South-South partners<\/span>,<\/span>By sharing resources and experience, listening to each other and learning from each other, we will build a more inclusive and open cooperation model and inject new vitality into global development cooperation.<\/span><\/p>\n
