"This study reviews the progress achieved by ESCWA member countries in implementing the recommendations contained in the Monterrey Consensus of the International Conference on Financing for Development (Monterrey, Mexico, March 2002), during the last six years with a focus on 2008. It also reviews the impact of the global financial crisis on the performance of member countries in the six leading actions related to financing for development, namely: mobilizing domestic financial resources for development; mobilizing international resources for development; international trade as an engine for development; increasing international financial and technical cooperation for development; external debt; and addressing systemic issues. The study indicates different levels of progress. Oil exporting countries achieved higher level of progress while the less developed countries have faced significant difficulties with regard to the flow of foreign resources, which limited their capability to fully implement the recommendations. It concludes that a significant number of member countries are still facing such obstacles as the limited role of the banking sector, the small volume of financial markets, problems related to bureaucracy and financial and administrative corruption. In addition, the flow of foreign resources, in particular foreign direct investment, remains directed to a small number of member countries."--Publisher website.

Ensuring women's economic empowerment and access to and control over resources requires an integrated approach to growth and development, focused on gender-responsive employment promotion and informed by the interdependency between economic and social development. Social objectives need to be incorporated into economic policies. Economic growth strategies should give attention to the real economy and focus on creating a gender-sensitive macroeconomic environment, full employment and decent work, access to land, property and other productive resources as well as financial services, and full coverage of social protection measures. The Survey outlines a number of concrete recommendations in these critical areas, which if adopted, will facilitate women's equitable access to and control over economic and financial resources.

This report assesses progress in implementing the commitments and actions in the Addis Ababa Action Agenda. The global economic recession and financial turmoil from COVID-19 (coronavirus) are derailing implementation of the Agenda and achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Even before the pandemic, the 2020 Financing for Sustainable Development Report (FSDR) of the Inter-agency Task Force noted that there was backsliding in many areas. Due to the crisis, global financial markets have witnessed heavy losses and intense volatility. Particularly worrisome is the prospect of a new debt crisis. The FSDR highlights both immediate and longer-term actions, including arresting the backslide, to respond to the COVID-19 crisis. Recommendations are included in the report.
