Charlotte Petri Gornitzka, chair of the Development Assistance Committee (DAC), discusses financing sustainable development and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Official Development Assistance (ODA) from DAC members has risen 70% since 1990 and helped reduce extreme poverty rates, but there is still a large funding gap. New forms of development finance must be supported to help achieve the SDGs and close this gap. The DAC monitors development funding, sets standards, and is modernizing to better reflect the role of private sector investment and new financial instruments in sustainable development. More work is needed to reform the DAC and engage partners to ensure delivery of the ambitious SDGs.

Effective international rules and standards have proven to be beneficial for a sustainable world economy and shared well-being. International organisations play a key role in developing such rules and understanding how they operate and engage with stakeholders is important for ensuring their effectiveness.
To shed light on international standard setting, this presentation will illustrate recent OECD work collecting, comparing and assessing the practices of 50 international organisations on their governance arrangements, operational modalities, use of quality management disciplines and co-operation efforts. Looking at different types of organisations, our work identifies avenues for making their legal and policy instruments more effective, inclusive and relevant, in an effort to address the current discontent with globalisation arising from fragmented rules of the game. Recognising the challenges of monitoring and evaluating the implementation and impact of international standards and guidelines, transparency, flexibility, focus and co-operation are vital to ensuring complementarity.

Approaches to Development Planning in Bangladesh: from 5 year plan to PRSP an...Ahasan Uddin Bhuiyan
Bangladesh first introduced the "five-year development plan" in July 1973, which continued until 2002. The government introduced the PRSP as advised by donors in July 2005 setting a target to achieve the millennium development goals (MDGs) by the year 2015. Due to criticism from different quarters on the shortcomings in the ongoing PRSP, the government has taken the initiative to change the nation's public investment policy.
The government has decided to reintroduce the five-year development plan after the implementation period of the ongoing poverty reduction strategy paper (PRSP) ends in July 2011.
As a part of my regular academic activities, I was assigned by Professor Dr. Akter Hossain, my honourable course teacher , to complete an assiggnment on “Approaches to Development Planning in Bangladesh: from 5 year plan to PRSP and again reverting back to 5 year plan.”
The ‘Good Governance’ agenda identifies a host of desirable governance goals for developing countries but its implementation and results have been very poor. An important reason is that the framework confuses means and ends, and ignores very significant historical facts about growth in the last century. Its position as the dominant consensus sets poor countries infeasible and unachievable agendas, creating dismay and disillusion, and takes our attention away from achievable and critical governance agendas. Mushtaq Khan’s presentation examines the theoretical and empirical limits of the consensus agenda and identifies the types of governance reforms that are supported by historically informed theory.

DACnews is designed to help development practitioners keep abreast of DAC work so that we can increase its reach and impact. We would very much appreciate your helping us to reach as wide an audience as possible by forwarding this sign-up link to people you feel may be interested.
Anything new in development?
Innovation is a frequently used word in development circles. And indeed, finding new ways of working – and creating broader partnerships – is increasingly important. This DACnews looks at several ways in which the DAC is innovating: by welcoming new members such as Iceland and the Czech Republic; by intensifying the dialogue on triangular co-operation; by looking at development co-operation from the receiving end and factoring in the e-revolution; and by deepening understanding of how to green development. It also celebrates 30 years of the DAC Evaluation Network.
The target audience for my final project includes the general public and anyone else who is interested in development specifically financing for development. With this digital artefact, I am conveying the message of the importance of development, official development assistance and the new financing architecture that is proposed to fund the Sustainable Development Goals. I believe providing this information is important as it will assist the general public in gaining awareness of the developmental challenges and opportunities facing the world today.

Place and policy: how can cities lead inclusive growth?
Cities are at the forefront of efforts to achieve inclusive growth. What does the inclusive city of the 21st century look like? How can we narrow the gap between rich and poor communities? What role can housing play in promoting inclusive growth?
Lamia Kamal-Chaoui, Director, Centre for Entrepreneurship, SMEs, Regions and Cities, OECD
Pascal Saint-Amans, Director, Centre for Tax Policy and Administration, OECD
Kurt Van Dender, Head of Unit, Centre for Tax Policy and Administration, OECD
This session discussed key findings from recent work on the use of taxes to tackle climate change, including a preview of the upcoming OECD publication, Taxing Energy Use 2018, which measures the magnitude and coverage of energy and carbon taxes in 42 OECD and G20 countries and provides a first appreciation of changes in energy and carbon taxes over time.
A key pillar of ensuring the integrity of the global financial system is to ensure that information is available to tax authorities’ to enable them to administer their domestic tax laws. The OECD’s work in this area is conducted through the Global Forum on Transparency and Exchange of Information for Tax Purposes.
The Global Forum is responsible for ensuring a rapid implementation of the standards of exchange of information on request (EOIR) and the automatic exchange of financial account information (AEOI). Importantly, each of these standards includes requirements to maintain beneficial ownership information. Mr. Housden and Mr. Auerbach will give an overview of the standards, the review processes that are in place and the results so far.
The Base Erosion and Profit Shifting (BEPS) project also includes key actions that include exchange of information as well as the elimination of harmful tax practices and mutual agreement procedures to ensure that tax treaties are applied consistent with their intents and purposes. The Inclusive Framework on BEPS, which now counts more than 100 member jurisdictions, conducts peer reviews of the implementation of BEPS action items on exchange of tax rulings, country-by-country reporting, harmful preferential tax regimes and the efficiency of mutual agreement procedures. Also, an important tool for BEPS implementation is the BEPS Multilateral Instrument (MLI), which allows signatories to quickly update its treaties to conform with BEPS tax treaty related measures. Mr. Pross will provide an overview of the BEPS implementation phase and its results so far. Ms. Chatel and Mr. Evers will focus on the importance and impact of the MLI which has been signed by close to 70 jurisdictions and which is currently under ratification in many of them.

Teaching for truth – The role of education policy in public trust
Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills and Special Advisor on Education Policy to the Secretary-General, OECD
These days, virality seems privileged over quality in the distribution of news with truth and fact losing currency in decision making and democratic choices. Assertions which “feel right” but have no basis in fact seem to be accepted as valid on the grounds that they challenge elites and vested interests. Algorithms that sort us into groups of like-minded individuals create echo chambers that amplify our views, leave us uninformed of opposing arguments, and polarise our societies. Those algorithms are not a design flaw. They are the heart of why social media work.
In this context, what can countries do to foster trust, as a fundamental prerequisite for social and economic well-being, for enhancing social cohesion and strengthening resilience, and for maintaining security and order in our societies? OECD’s Survey of Adult Skills (PIAAC) shows that education strengthens the cognitive and analytical capacities needed to develop, maintain, and (perhaps) restore trust in both close relationships as well as in anonymous others. It does so both directly, through building and reinforcing literacy and numeracy in individuals, and indirectly, through facilitating habits and reinforcing behaviours such as reading and writing at home and at work. Education and trust are thus fundamentally intertwined and dependent on each other.
What’s the role of trade in inclusive growth?
Ken Ash, Director, Trade and Agriculture, OECD
Public scepticism about trade has grown in many countries, as one part of a wider backlash against globalisation. We need to acknowledge that frustration with ‘the system’ has its roots in some genuine problems. At the same time, we need to acknowledge that trade has helped to improve lives around the world. OECD analysis supports a much more integrated approach to policy making, moving each of us beyond our comfortable silos. Why does trade matter today - or does it - and how can trade contribute to more inclusive growth?
Investing in climate, investing in growth // World Energy Outlook – How can we meet climate, energy access and air quality goals?
Timur Guel, Senior Energy Analyst, Energy Demand Outlook Division, International Energy Agency
Energy is fundamental for the achievement of many of the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Three of them are directly related to the production and use of energy: to ensure universal access to affordable, reliable, sustainable and modern energy services by 2030 (SDG 7); to substantially reduce the air pollution which causes deaths and illness (SDG 3.9); and to take effective action to combat climate change (SDG 13). The IEA’s new Sustainable Development Scenario, published for the first time in the IEA’s World Energy Outlook 2017, integrates all these goals at the same time with the objective to set out an energy sector pathway that leads to a cleaner and more inclusive energy future. This session will discuss some of the scenario’s main findings, and what they imply for the energy sector and for energy policymakers.
Budget transparency brings many benefits for citizens and for society, but putting it into practice can sometimes appear as a daunting task.
This session will highlight the Budget Transparency Toolkit - developed by the OECD with the participation of the Global Initiative for Fiscal Transparency (GIFT) Network - and the practical steps that it provides for supporting openness, integrity and accountability in public financial management. Furthermore, it will shine a spotlight on the specific role that parliaments have in ensuring budget transparency, highlighting emerging good practices. It will be followed by a discussion on measuring budget transparency in parliaments.
While proposing and implementing the budget are the legal duty of the executive, strengthening the involvement and participation of citizens and civil society can increase responsiveness, efficiency, impact and trust. Heightened citizen engagement also reduces opportunities for corruption and strengthens the culture of open democracy.
This session will use country examples to identify the opportunities for participative approaches across the budget cycle and highlight some of the key challenges and questions for debate.
Integrating immigrants and their children is a major policy concern for many OECD countries. Immigrants represent a sizeable segment of our population: more than one in five persons in the OECD is either foreign-born or native-born with at least one immigrant parent - and this share is expected to grow further. Yet, the outcomes of immigrants lag behind those with native-born parents in all major areas of integration, including the labour market, education, and social inclusion. In addition, immigrants tend to gather in urban and capital city-regions: two-thirds of the foreign-born population in the OECD live in urban areas on average, while asylum seekers seem to be more evenly distributed. Tackling barriers to integration is essential to ensure social cohesion and the acceptance of further immigration by the host country population. Achieving it needs to adopt a territorial approach to take into account the variety of local situations and build appropriate coordination mechanisms with local governments, in charge of 40% of public spending and 60% of public investment on average in the OECD.
This session will draw on key lessons from the OECD’s work on integration and summarise the main challenges and good policy practices to support the lasting integration of immigrants and their children. It will provide parliamentarians with facts and evidence on integration outcomes, as well as a number of good practice policy approaches. It will focus on the specific integration challenges faced by persons who migrate for family reasons – the single most important motive for migration in OECD countries – and on good practices to manage integration at the local level.
The OECD is examining how the two global mega-trends of population ageing and rising inequalities have been developing and interacting, both within and across generations. This work, and specifically a new report “Preventing Ageing Unequally” (to be released on 18 October), will take a life-course perspective, showing how inequalities in education, health, employment and income interact, and can result in large lifetime disparities across different groups. This discussion will focus on a policy agenda for more inclusive ageing to prevent, mitigate and cope with inequalities and ensure a better retirement for all, with policies coordinated across family, education, employment, social ministries and agencies.
Digital transformation is under way, creating new opportunities and affecting organisations, jobs and lives in ways never seen before. Digital opportunities abound, but governments must ensure they are equally harnessed by all countries, firms and individuals. To navigate the digital transformation, governments need to review legacy frameworks, embracing digital innovation and mitigating potential social cost. They also must step up efforts to empower people with the skills needed to succeed in a digital world. A new sense of urgency to marshal digital development for productivity and more inclusive and sustainable prosperity has pushed digital issues high on national and global policy agendas. In this context, the OECD has started to undertake a large cross-cutting project focused on making the transformation work for growth and well-being.
This session explores key insights from the new OECD Digital Economy Outlook 2017, which provides a holistic overview of converging trends, policy developments and data on both the supply and demand sides of the digital economy, and illustrates how the digital transformation is affecting economies and societies.
Session by Gabriela Ramos, Chief of Staff, G20 Sherpa and Special Counsellor to the Secretary-General, OECD
Among the myriad challenges facing our economies, few pose greater obstacles to better economic performance than the productivity slowdown and the rise in inequalities. Are they influencing each other? OECD work on the productivity-inclusiveness nexus, presented at the 2016 OECD Ministerial Council Meeting, sets out what we know about the interactions between productivity and inclusiveness, identifies knowledge gaps, and charts win-win policies that boost productivity and tackle inequality.
Despite advances in business and technological transformations, we can no longer assume that they will automatically lead to better economic performance and stronger productivity growth. And there is no guarantee that the benefits of higher levels of growth, or higher levels of productivity in certain sectors, will be shared across the population as a whole. This session will explore how policy makers can adopt a broader, more inclusive approach to productivity growth – one that considers how to expand the productive assets of an economy by investing in individuals’ skills and providing an environment where enterprises have a fair chance to succeed, including in lagging regions, generating strong and sustainable growth and opportunities for all.
Session by Catherine Mann, Chief Economist, G20 Finance Deputy and Special Counsellor to the Secretary-General, OECD
The global economy remains in a low-growth trap with world GDP stuck in 2016 at around 3%, well-below the long-run average for the fifth consecutive year. Disappointing growth outcomes have led to weak consumption and investment, sustaining a vicious cycle of poor productivity improvements and further growth disappointments. Weak investment accounts for a large share of this poor productivity performance with capital spending in the OECD barely above the pre-crisis peak and well below the trajectory of past recoveries. Most strikingly, investment has not responded to the exceptionally low interest rates brought about by monetary policy.
Increases in investment are needed to push economies onto a higher growth path and this calls for decisive policy actions. During this presentation, OECD’s Chief Economist will share insights into how fiscal initiatives and structural reforms can lead to higher growth without compromising debt sustainability.
Session by Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills and Special Advisor on Education Policy to the Secretary-General, OECD
The OECD Programme for International Student Assessment (PISA) examines not just what students know in science, reading and mathematics, but what they can do with what they know. Results from PISA allow policy makers around the world to set policy targets against measurable goals achieved by other education systems, and learn from policies and practices applied elsewhere. Andreas Schleicher, Director for Education and Skills will present an overview of the PISA 2015 results for science and students’ attitudes towards learning science, including their expectations of working in science-related careers. The presentation will also examine how performance and equity have evolved across PISA-participating countries and economies, and provide insights on education policies that can help to foster improvements in equity and outcomes.

how can I sell pi coins after successfully completing KYCDOT TECH
Pi coins is not launched yet in any exchange 💱 this means it's not swappable, the current pi displaying on coin market cap is the iou version of pi. And you can learn all about that on my previous post.
RIGHT NOW THE ONLY WAY you can sell pi coins is through verified pi merchants. A pi merchant is someone who buys pi coins and resell them to exchanges and crypto whales. Looking forward to hold massive quantities of pi coins before the mainnet launch.
This is because pi network is not doing any pre-sale or ico offerings, the only way to get my coins is from buying from miners. So a merchant facilitates the transactions between the miners and these exchanges holding pi.
I and my friends has sold more than 6000 pi coins successfully with this method. I will be happy to share the contact of my personal pi merchant. The one i trade with, if you have your own merchant you can trade with them. For those who are new.
Message: @Pi_vendor_247 on telegram.
I wouldn't advise you selling all percentage of the pi coins. Leave at least a before so its a win win during open mainnet. Have a nice day pioneers ♥️

Empowering the Unbanked: The Vital Role of NBFCs in Promoting Financial Inclu...Vighnesh Shashtri
In India, financial inclusion remains a critical challenge, with a significant portion of the population still unbanked. Non-Banking Financial Companies (NBFCs) have emerged as key players in bridging this gap by providing financial services to those often overlooked by traditional banking institutions. This article delves into how NBFCs are fostering financial inclusion and empowering the unbanked.
Resume
• Real GDP growth slowed down due to problems with access to electricity caused by the destruction of manoeuvrable electricity generation by Russian drones and missiles.
• Exports and imports continued growing due to better logistics through the Ukrainian sea corridor and road. Polish farmers and drivers stopped blocking borders at the end of April.
• In April, both the Tax and Customs Services over-executed the revenue plan. Moreover, the NBU transferred twice the planned profit to the budget.
• The European side approved the Ukraine Plan, which the government adopted to determine indicators for the Ukraine Facility. That approval will allow Ukraine to receive a EUR 1.9 bn loan from the EU in May. At the same time, the EU provided Ukraine with a EUR 1.5 bn loan in April, as the government fulfilled five indicators under the Ukraine Plan.

when will pi network coin be available on crypto exchange.DOT TECH
There is no set date for when Pi coins will enter the market.
However, the developers are working hard to get them released as soon as possible.
Once they are available, users will be able to exchange other cryptocurrencies for Pi coins on designated exchanges.
But for now the only way to sell your pi coins is through verified pi vendor.
Here is the telegram contact of my personal pi vendor

how to sell pi coins at high rate quickly.DOT TECH
Where can I sell my pi coins at a high rate.
Pi is not launched yet on any exchange. But one can easily sell his or her pi coins to investors who want to hold pi till mainnet launch.
This means crypto whales want to hold pi. And you can get a good rate for selling pi to them. I will leave the telegram contact of my personal pi vendor below.
A vendor is someone who buys from a miner and resell it to a holder or crypto whale.
Here is the telegram contact of my vendor:

how to sell pi coins in South Korea profitably.DOT TECH
Yes. You can sell your pi network coins in South Korea or any other country, by finding a verified pi merchant
What is a verified pi merchant?
Since pi network is not launched yet on any exchange, the only way you can sell pi coins is by selling to a verified pi merchant, and this is because pi network is not launched yet on any exchange and no pre-sale or ico offerings Is done on pi.
Since there is no pre-sale, the only way exchanges can get pi is by buying from miners. So a pi merchant facilitates these transactions by acting as a bridge for both transactions.
How can i find a pi vendor/merchant?
Well for those who haven't traded with a pi merchant or who don't already have one. I will leave the telegram id of my personal pi merchant who i trade pi with.

• 836 million people still live in extreme poverty.
• In 2015, 10.2 per cent of the world’s workers were living
with their families on less than $1.90 per person per day.
About one in five persons in developing regions lives on less
than $1.25 per day.
• In 2014, nearly 1 in 4 children under the age of 5, an
estimated total of 159 million children had stunted growth.
• In 2013, 59 million children of primary-school age were out
of school.
• 1.1 billion people do not have access to electricity
Why is this so important?

ODA is fundamental to delivering the SDGs
• Since 1990, net Official Development Assistance (ODA) has risen by more than 70%.
• At the same time, extreme poverty rates have been cut by more than half.
• DAC ODA plays a huge part in financing for development: e.g. total official flows for
water and sanitation were $10 billion in 2014, of which total aid flows from DAC
donors amounted to $8 billion.
5. 5
But there is likely to be a gap in investment:
ODA cannot meet all of this

What is the DAC and what does it do?
• The DAC comprises thirty like-minded nations, all of whom have
agreed, as donors, to undertake and account for their development
activities on a common basis. DAC members provide more than
three-quarters of the worlds Official Development Assistance
(ODA).
• The DAC:
• Monitors ODA and other financial flows.
• Holds its members to account, through a set of rules and a
system of peer reviews ensuring ODA is properly accounted for,
ensuring taxpayers money is used for truly developmental
purposes.
• Shares best practice, setting the standards and improving policy
making through high quality evidence and analysis.
9. 9
How is the DAC modernising?
Two examples:
1) The DAC is changing the ODA system to better reflect the role of
ODA in catalyzing Private Sector investment in development
activities.
2) The DAC is creating a new measurement, Total Official Support for
Sustainable Development (TOSSD), which will include more
financial instruments.
10. 10
Future of DAC
There is more to do at this critical time:
• DAC reform
• Outreach and partnering building ties with other development
actors
• Ensuring SDG agenda is core and members are supported to
deliver these challenging aims
