The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development includes many ambitious goals such as poverty eradication, education for all, full employment and climate change mitigation. The implementation of these goals requires a massive increase of investment in sectors that are critical for economic and ecological transformation. The lecture addresses the challenges for financing SDG implementation and highlights the role of development banks in this context.
