The document provides an overview of the New Alliance for Food Security and Nutrition, which aims to lift 50 million people out of poverty by 2022 through sustained, inclusive agricultural growth in African countries. It describes the partners involved, including African governments, private sector companies, and donor countries. Country Cooperation Agreements have been signed with 10 countries, outlining commitments and plans to achieve the goals of the Malabo Declaration through increased investment, policy reforms, and collaboration among stakeholders. Progress reports indicate most private sector investment commitments and government policy reforms are on track, while over half of donor funding commitments have been disbursed so far.
Sustainable FP Financing and Agenda 2030 : Emerging Approaches and ToolsJoachim Chijide

Kenya Mobilizing financial resources needed for health in the SDG eraDeepak Mattur
- In 2015 the UN General Assembly formally accepted a new set of 17 measurable Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), ranging from ending world poverty to achieving gender equality and empowering women and girls by 2030. The SDG target 3 encompasses 9 sub targets focussed on ensuring healthy lives and well-being for all. These goals set by the proposed SDGs are ambitious and challenging. It will not be achieved with a business-as-usual approach.
- ODA in Kenya: In 2013, ODA for Health reached its highest level at US$ 934 million. However, the outlook of future aid to Kenya remains flat.
- The share of government expenditure on health in Kenya has not shown a commensurate increase with its increase in GDP. The share has actually declined from 46% of the Total Health Expenditure in 2000 to 46% in 2000. Government needs to increase its share of health expenditure to meet the rising healthcare demands.
- At current level of health expenditure at US$ 1.9 BN, there exists an annual funding gap of US$ 1.4 BN to meet the needs of Healthcare services.
- Kenya needs to consider several instruments of innovative financing in order to achieve its financing needs for Health. Some of the potential options presented in this digital artefact are raising additional taxes, Debt-swaps and social bonds.
- There is a hope that Kenya will make a paradigm shift in its approach to health financing and the Healthcare financing gap in Kenya will be filled in with additional sources generated through innovative financing instruments.

Draft of a short national financing strategy for an EMDE country to access additional sources of finance for its development. The country here is Nigeria and this is my final project for the EDX course, "Unlocking Investment and Finance in Emerging Markets and Developing Economies (EMDEs)
Introduction African agriculture, development and CAADP African agriculture is at a crossroads. It is widely recognised as the most important sector in the continent with the potential to lift millions out of chronic poverty, food insecurity and hunger. Yet, for decades ag- riculture has stagnated, suffering from underinvestment, poor policies and incoherent strategies. Mean- while, more than 250 million Africans remain food insecure. Governments in Africa spend less than 7% of their national budgets on agriculture despite the fact that 75% of poor people live in rural areas. Women farmers and smallholder farmers remain particularly under-supported. CAADP is a recently-ignited process dating back to 2003. It is an attempt to do something about agri- cultural productivity and growth, and aims to transform policy and practice, as to improve, coordination, knowledge and ways of working. But without the know-how, critical analysis and scrutiny of civil society groups and farmers’ organisations, CAADP may end up reinforcing existing trends and fall short of expec- tations. 01 CAADP - A toolkit for civil society, organisation, engagement and advocacy CAADP: A toolkit for civil society, organisation, engagement and advocacy
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.

US Economic Outlook - Being Decided - M Capital Group August 2021.pdfpchutichetpong
The U.S. economy is continuing its impressive recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic and not slowing down despite re-occurring bumps. The U.S. savings rate reached its highest ever recorded level at 34% in April 2020 and Americans seem ready to spend. The sectors that had been hurt the most by the pandemic specifically reduced consumer spending, like retail, leisure, hospitality, and travel, are now experiencing massive growth in revenue and job openings.
Could this growth lead to a “Roaring Twenties”? As quickly as the U.S. economy contracted, experiencing a 9.1% drop in economic output relative to the business cycle in Q2 2020, the largest in recorded history, it has rebounded beyond expectations. This surprising growth seems to be fueled by the U.S. government’s aggressive fiscal and monetary policies, and an increase in consumer spending as mobility restrictions are lifted. Unemployment rates between June 2020 and June 2021 decreased by 5.2%, while the demand for labor is increasing, coupled with increasing wages to incentivize Americans to rejoin the labor force. Schools and businesses are expected to fully reopen soon. In parallel, vaccination rates across the country and the world continue to rise, with full vaccination rates of 50% and 14.8% respectively.
However, it is not completely smooth sailing from here. According to M Capital Group, the main risks that threaten the continued growth of the U.S. economy are inflation, unsettled trade relations, and another wave of Covid-19 mutations that could shut down the world again. Have we learned from the past year of COVID-19 and adapted our economy accordingly?
“In order for the U.S. economy to continue growing, whether there is another wave or not, the U.S. needs to focus on diversifying supply chains, supporting business investment, and maintaining consumer spending,” says Grace Feeley, a research analyst at M Capital Group.
While the economic indicators are positive, the risks are coming closer to manifesting and threatening such growth. The new variants spreading throughout the world, Delta, Lambda, and Gamma, are vaccine-resistant and muddy the predictions made about the economy and health of the country. These variants bring back the feeling of uncertainty that has wreaked havoc not only on the stock market but the mindset of people around the world. MCG provides unique insight on how to mitigate these risks to possibly ensure a bright economic future.

The European Unemployment Puzzle: implications from population agingGRAPE
We study the link between the evolving age structure of the working population and unemployment. We build a large new Keynesian OLG model with a realistic age structure, labor market frictions, sticky prices, and aggregate shocks. Once calibrated to the European economy, we quantify the extent to which demographic changes over the last three decades have contributed to the decline of the unemployment rate. Our findings yield important implications for the future evolution of unemployment given the anticipated further aging of the working population in Europe. We also quantify the implications for optimal monetary policy: lowering inflation volatility becomes less costly in terms of GDP and unemployment volatility, which hints that optimal monetary policy may be more hawkish in an aging society. Finally, our results also propose a partial reversal of the European-US unemployment puzzle due to the fact that the share of young workers is expected to remain robust in the US.
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.
