Achieving the Sustainable Development Goals requires an estimated USD 4 trillion in additional annual investment. As FDI declines at a moment of greatest need, smarter investment facilitation can help unlock flows into developing and least developed countries. At all levels of cooperation, countries are increasingly using international frameworks as catalysts for on-the-ground reforms to enhance transparency, simplify procedures, and digitalize government services, thereby lowering transaction costs and creating more predictable and efficient investment environments. Cooperation and financial support are crucial for real impact, with capacity building and technical assistance tailored to each country’s development priorities at the core of success. Experts from government, international organization, the private sector and civil society will share their experience on creating partnerships that work to facilitate investment for sustainable development.
