Investments in development: each dollar spent on the education of girls brings three dollars to the world economy Antonio Lafuente The goals in the field of sustainable development help with disadvantaged is not charity, but investment & nbsp; in the best future. This point of view is shared by many, but global financing of development is at risk. The upcoming UN conference in Seville, Spain, is designed to change the current & nbsp; the situation by mobilizing large -scale investments to create a more fair and sustainable world. ~ 60 >Each dollar invested in the education of girls brings an average of $ 2.8, which means additional billions involved in the economy. Similarly, each dollar spent on water supply and sanitation saves $ 4.3 in the form of healthcare costs. & Amp; nbsp; simple mathematics 62 ~Mathematics does not recognize gender or infrastructure differences, it reflects the truth in numbers. These figures convincingly prove: helping countries with the least resources benefits everything, including those who have the most. & Amp; nbsp; only one reasonably invested dollar can be of great importance. For example, the allocation of one dollar per person per year to combat non -infectious diseases by 2030 can prevent almost seven million deaths. In the same way, every dollar spent on reducing the risk of natural disasters can save up to 15 dollars in recovery work. & Amp; nbsp; however, despite convincing statistics, help for development is often understood incorrectly: some consider it simple charity work, while others – a means of extracting profit. & nbsp; not charity, but justice The last report of the UN Development Program (UNDP) about Afghan women entrepreneurs challenges skeptics. It emphasizes that these women are not looking for charity – they achieve for themselves and their families a fair chance of success. By earning their own income, they gain financial independence, which, in turn, strengthens the communities in which they live. Contrary to all difficulties, they create jobs and build a more full and rich life. & Amp; nbsp; expanding access to state and private financing, guaranteeing loans, providing preferential conditions in international markets and strengthening support networks can stimulate business growth and contribute to a more prosperous future-be it in Afghanistan, Ecuadorrons or somewhere Still. & nbsp; the above examples draw a clear and based on real data picture: reasonable investments in development bring dividends to everyone. This message will be in the spotlight at the upcoming Fourth UN Conference on Development Financing, which will be held in the Spanish city of Seville from June 30 to July 3. However, the summit, known for not the most attractive abbreviation & NBSP; FFD4, faces serious obstacles. & Amp; nbsp; despite the fact that countries leading negotiations at the UN headquarters in New York, a week ago, agreed on an extensive final document, which should be adopted at the end of the conference, individual states prefer to be located aside. In particular, the United States announced that they would not send their delegation to Seville at all. & Amp; NBSP; and although there are positive examples – so, Spain increased its budgetary allocations to finance development by 12 percent – the indefinite situation forced the UN Secretary General Antoniu Gutherris with regrets that “global cooperation is actively doubtful”. This is reflected in the annual deficit of financing development in the amount of four trillions of dollars, as well as the refusal of the parties from previously accepted obligations. Donors turn off the help & nbsp; “at a historical speed and on a historical scale”, as the general secretary expressed. & Amp; nbsp; which is put on a card ? 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 > 62 ~ 62“The possible success of negotiations in Seville will require other countries to fill the vacuum of global leadership and demonstrate convincing commitment to multilateral cooperation, which is vital for our survival,” Jayti Gosh, professor of the University of Massacusetts in Amhert. & Amp; significant steps forward should include deep reforms of the international financial system. At present, it does not satisfy the needs of developing countries, while steadily protecting the interests of richer economies. Developing countries are faced with interest rates, which are at least twice as high as those that are paid by developed states. & Amp; nbsp; exorbitant burial burial of > in 2023, developing countries spent the record 1.4 trillion dollars, which is the highest An indicator over the past 20 years. & nbsp; in & NBSP; 2024, more than 1.1 billion people lived in countries where more than 20 percent of state revenues are spent on external debt service. Almost 2.2 billion people live in states where this indicator exceeds 10 percent. Expensive interest payments for debts restrain the development, preventing investments in healthcare infrastructure and educational services, and these are only two examples. & Amp; nbsp; ~ 60 > “Lighthouse of Global Solidarity”
