Keep this network alive!

I am one of the very few people from this network who were able to travel to Busan. Thanks to the IADB’s generous (and unusually non bureaucratic) support, suddenly I joined the most important stakeholders of the development circle in the South Korean port city: Hillary Clinton, Ban Ki Moon, Michelle Bachelet, Angel Gurría, Alison Evans, and even the Queen of Jordan. Sure, a great event, and sure, I…

 Much of the discussion at the HLF-4 in Busan last week, as well in the months leading up to the event, was focused on forging consensus around a new global development cooperation partnership framework that would accommodate the interests and unique cooperation modalities of new partners such as China, Brazil, and India.  The agreement by these and other new development actors to sign on to the HLF-4…

After three very intense days of a paramount global encounter in which a significant number of partners involved in the south-south opportunity participated, Busan came to a rather positive close last Thursday. Many big shots (among which Ban Ki-moon, Hillary Clinton, Angel Gurria, Paul Kagame, Queen Rania of Jordan, Lee Myung-bak, Brian Atwood and the directors and presidents of most national cooperation agencies) converged from all over the world in the port city to define the terms of a…

The group has since 2009 held a series of international conferences involving over 500 participants from China, Africa and DAC donor countries. The group has looked both at China's development experiences and lessons for African and other developing countries, as well as lessons that China and DAC donors can share to increase their impact of foreign aid on reducing poverty in Africa.
