Mainstreaming biodiversity across development policies faces challenges but lessons show approaches can be effective. Key challenges include integrating biodiversity concerns into development practices, while lessons show tools like environmental assessments and biodiversity-focused projects have helped mainstream biodiversity. Development finance must also balance biodiversity with other environmental goals like climate change, as trade-offs and synergies exist between supporting biodiversity and reducing climate impacts.

The document summarizes key figures from the 2020 round of data collection for the Total Official Support for Sustainable Development (TOSSD) framework. It finds that TOSSD reporting saw considerable expansion, with 99 respondents including 10 new countries and organizations. TOSSD totals for 2020 amounted to $273 billion in pillar I and $82 billion in pillar II, for a total of $355 billion. This represents an increase of $29 billion from 2019. Additional details were disclosed, including over 75,000 previously unreported activities worth $68 billion. First-time reporting by countries like Brazil provided new transparency into South-South cooperation.
1) TOSSD data for 2020 showed total official support for sustainable development of $355 billion, including $273 billion in gross disbursements and $51 billion in private finance mobilized. This represented considerable expansion from the previous year and first-time data from several new respondents.
2) Key developments included TOSSD being adopted as a data source for SDG indicator 17.3.1 on sustainable development finance, representing major recognition. Data submitted to the UN included over 75,000 previously unreported activities totaling $68 billion in additional support.
3) Some challenges remain around improving data coverage and addressing confidentiality constraints related to private finance mobilization reporting. Further guidance is also being developed on

The document discusses development cooperation from Arab countries and institutions between 2011-2015. It finds that:
1) Arab countries and institutions provided an average of $6.3 billion annually in development assistance over this period, representing 47% of reported flows from non-DAC providers.
2) They concentrate their development activities in the Middle East and North Africa region, providing 81% of their assistance there, primarily to Egypt.
3) Arab providers mainly use grants (58% of assistance), complementing the focus of DAC members on social infrastructure and services.
ECIS countries provide on average USD 6.2 billion annually in development assistance. Turkey is the largest provider, contributing USD 4 billion on average annually. Most ECIS funding is allocated to fragile contexts and social infrastructure projects in lower middle income countries. While grants are the most common form of assistance, ECIS countries are increasingly engaging in innovative partnerships for development.

The document outlines the agenda for the International Conference on Civil Society Space, held on June 6, 2019 at the OECD Conference Centre in Paris. The one-day conference consisted of four sessions focusing on challenges to civil society space, monitoring civil society engagement, and strengthening partnerships between governments, multilateral organizations, and civil society to achieve the UN Sustainable Development Goals. Speakers included representatives from the UN, OECD, governments, and civil society organizations. The goal of the conference was to discuss ongoing efforts and identify further actions to create an enabling environment for civil society participation in development.
The International Conference on Civil Society Space discussed strategies to defend and expand shrinking civil society space. Civil society faces increasing pressure globally from states and non-state actors. Restrictions undermine development goals. Participants discussed how to promote enabling environments through multi-stakeholder partnerships and inclusive dialogue. Recommendations included strengthening CSO effectiveness, shifting support to the local level, and improving spaces for civil society participation in policymaking.
According to preliminary OECD data, $157.2 billion was mobilized from the private sector by development finance interventions from 2012-2017. Guarantees mobilized the most at $63.5 billion (40% of the total), followed by syndicated loans at $26.9 billion (17%) and direct investment in companies and SPVs at $25.5 billion (16%). In 2017 alone, $38.2 billion was mobilized, with Latin America as the main beneficiary region. The energy and financial sectors received 60% of amounts mobilized in 2017.
This document provides information on engaging civil society organizations in triangular cooperation. It discusses how triangular cooperation brings together partners from different countries to leverage their comparative advantages. It notes that while governments remain primary actors, civil society organizations are increasingly important partners that can contribute local expertise and networks. The document analyzes data on over 700 triangular cooperation projects involving civil society organizations. It finds that Africa has the strongest civil society engagement, and that projects focus on social infrastructure, governance, and long-term partnerships of 2-4 years.
The document discusses private sector engagement in triangular co-operation projects. Some key points:
- Over half of projects involving the private sector are multi-regional, mainly across Africa, Asia-Pacific, and Latin America. They often include different types of stakeholders like academia and non-profits.
- Projects focus on infrastructure like energy and water, as well as governance. Energy projects concentrate on expanding energy access in Africa.
- Most projects have budgets under $1 million and last 2-4 years, indicating triangular cooperation with the private sector is not overly costly or time-intensive.
