Linking European, African, Asian and Latin-American global development think tanks
ETTG is proud to announce the launch of a new project, supported by the French Development Agency (AFD), aimed at addressing critical challenges in development financing and the reform of international financial architecture.
Project Objectives
This initiative seeks to:
- Identify and overcome political bottlenecks impeding a cohesive European position on development financing.
- Contribute to the ongoing discourse on reforming the international financial architecture.
- Develop strategic recommendations for upcoming high-level political meetings, including the 4th International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4) in Sevilla, Spain, July 2025.
Multi-Phase Approach
Our comprehensive strategy unfolds in three key phases:
| 1. Global Perspective Gathering: – Organizing webinars to capture insights from peer think tanks across Africa, Asia, and Latin America. – Identifying pressing reform needs from diverse global viewpoints. |
| 2. Policy Analysis and Recommendations: – Producing three in-depth ETTG Policy Briefs. – Offering actionable policy recommendations for European decision-makers. |
| 3. High-Level Engagement and Dissemination: – Hosting two exclusive closed-door events. – Facilitating discussions among key decision-makers on reform implementation. – Widely disseminating project findings and materials. |
This project underscores ETTG’s commitment to shaping a more equitable global financial system and reinforcing Europe’s role in international development financing. Stay tuned for updates as we progress through this crucial initiative.
