This project asks how governments can work with private sector actors to amplify their contribution to recovery and development across the Global South, in the context of heightened tensions between the world’s major powers, and a world economy under pressure from the pandemic and the war in Ukraine.
The project seeks to develop policy proposals for new development and finance frameworks that are viable in a world where leading democracies face deep internal divisions, democracy is backsliding globally, and the potential for division between the West and the rest looms large. It aims to identify innovative mechanisms to create public and private partnerships and institutional reforms that can transform global public goods provision.
The project will convene high-level experts in a series of focused roundtables to evaluate policy proposals in light of the contemporary political and economic environment. It will be informed by the oversight and advice of a distinguished steering committee. The findings will be made publicly available in a free to access report.
This is a cross-institute initiative led by the US and the Americas Programme together with the Global Economy and Finance, Global Health, and Environment and Society programmes.
Chatham House would like to thank The Rockefeller Foundation for its financial support of this project.
