The Fourth Annual Meeting of the Global Investors for Sustainable Development (GISD) Alliance, is focused on supporting developing countries on the road to meeting the SDGs, and it took place at UN Headquarters in New York amid a worsening global economic outlook brought on by the crisis in Ukraine, climate change, and COVID-19 – all of which is threatening long-term investment, said a press release issued by GISD.

UN Secretary-General António Guterres said large and persistent SDG financing gap must spur collective effort to scale up private finance and investment for the SDGs.
