    Looking through the lens of “development in transition”, this document, jointly prepared by ECLAC and the OECD Development Centre, notes that some developing and emerging economies have increased their levels of national income yet still face daunting multidimensional development challenges. This calls for a more comprehensive approach to international cooperation that, combined with effective domestic policies, can better support countries as they move up the income ladder and seek ways to turn income gains into lasting development gains.The analysis presented here sketches out some of the features of a new paradigm of international cooperation for development. Foreword .-- Abstract .-- Introduction .-- I. Emerging global challenges: a more complex and multipolar world .-- II. Development as a continuum and the limitation of per capita income as a measurement .-- III. Latin America and the Caribbean: remaining and new challenges in the new development landscape .-- IV. Addressing global challenges: new opportunities for the biregional partnership between the European Union and Latin America and the Caribbean .-- V. Rethinking the international cooperation for development strategy .-- VI. Conclusions.

    Rwanda is widely celebrated for the remarkable social, political, and economic renaissance it has experienced in the years following the genocide against the Tutsi of 1994. However, Rwanda appears to have relatively higher poverty rates than African peers with similar income per capita, and its elasticity of poverty reduction to growth is low compared to high‐growing SSA peers. Poverty is concentrated in rural areas and among households with many children. Rwanda now faces challenges in fully translating its very strong growth into commensurate gains in poverty reduction and shared prosperity. This Country Partnership Framework (CPF) sets out the World Bank Group’s (WBG) plans for addressing the country’s development priorities as identified in the 2019 Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD) and Rwanda’s National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) well as supporting Rwanda’s response to the Coronavirus (COVID‐19) pandemic to recover from the negative public health and socio‐economic impacts of the pandemic. The CPF takes into account Rwanda’s anti‐crisis response program as of mid‐May 2020, including the government’s emergency Economic Recovery Plan, although it will likely continue to evolve in coming months. It was agreed with the authorities that should the situation warrant considerable changes to the government’s strategy and its program with the WBG, the Performance and Learning Review (PLR) will be brought forward to accommodate such changes. The CPF spans two IDA cycles, IDA19 (July 2020 to June 2023) and IDA 20 (July 2023 to June 2026). Given the country’s preference for frontloading its IDA commitment, and a track record of making good use of additional IDA resources available, Rwanda will explore the use of additional resources from IDA windows

    Global asymmetries influence policies for recovery in Latin America and the Caribbean. Nearly 30 years after the Earth Summit and the global adoption of an international development agenda, in practical terms the environmental pillar of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development has not been taken into consideration in recovery policies in the region. This has created major problems in terms of the medium- and long-term direction of regional economies.On balance, recovery measures —which have focused on maintaining consumption or offsetting falls in it— have weakened non-health public services, territorial monitoring, and social and governmental monitoring functions. Transfers to support consumption strengthen an unsustainable development pattern and recovery measures prolong the anchoring to an approach that results in high vulnerability to environmental impacts, with unchanged or increased dependence on fossil fuels. The region is squandering the opportunity to use the recovery effort to enhance production and consumption patterns and improve the quality and coverage of public services, which the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has shown to be very important.This Special Report is the thirteenth in a series prepared by the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) on the evolution and impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in Latin America and the Caribbean. I. Stylized facts of two processes that are difficult to reverse: a worsening environmental situation and setbacks with the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. -- II. By targeting recovery spending, the opportunity to boost transformative sectors has been lost and this, coupled with the uncritical demand in recovery, underlines the unsustainable nature of thepre-pandemic development pattern .-- III. Aligning policies for the big push forsustainability, as a pillar of the recovery.

    Desde 2020, el mundo vio multiplicadas a gran velocidad sus necesidades de financiamiento ante los efectos de una crisis sistémica, considerada como la peor crisis global desde la Segunda Guerra Mundial: la desatada por la pandemia del COVID-19. Adicionalmente, los flujos de financiamiento de mayor importancia en la región durante los últimos años se manifestaron en caída relativa a años anteriores (flujos privados, flujos provenientes de China, IED y otros flujos de cooperación internacional o recursos multilaterales). En tal contexto, se ha puesto en relieve el debate sobre el rol fundamental de la banca de desarrollo para paliar las limitaciones de los mercados en una situación de crisis. Este trabajo propone contribuir a dicho debate, a partir del análisis de información recopilada en una base de datos que recogió medidas, prioridades y montos de financiamiento de la banca de desarrollo multilateral, regional, subregional y nacional─ de América Latina y el Caribe, especialmente destinadas a atender las necesidades de los países ante los efectos de la pandemia de COVID-19 entre 2020 y 2021. Resumen .-- Introducción .-- I. Respuestas de la Banca de Desarrollo ante la COVID-19: apoyo financiero de cada tipo de institución, por países y subregiones destinatarias .-- II. Respuestas de la Banca de Desarrollo ante la COVID-19: apoyo financiero por sectores y agentes económicos .-- III. Respuestas de la Banca de Desarrollo ante la COVID-19: principales instrumentos .-- IV. Respuestas de la Banca de Desarrollo ante la COVID-19: casos de países comentados .-- V.

    For the fifth time, the countries of the region are convening in the framework of the Forum of the Countries of Latin America and the Caribbean on Sustainable Development. On each occasion, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) has presented a report on regional progress and challenges in relation to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Since 2020, efforts to assess progress towards meeting the 2030 Agenda have had to be undertaken amid the constraints imposed by measures to address the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.In this difficult context, ECLAC continued to step up its efforts to assess the progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Whereas in 2019 we only had 19 statistical series of SDG indicators for the region to analyse progress towards 2030, in this fifth report we are presenting the results for 359 series, corresponding to 111 targets, 73 of which are targets covered by the prioritized indicators for the region.Given the contradiction between, on the one hand, the growing institutional efforts to bring to fruition the Decade of Action of the Sustainable Development Goals called for by the United Nations Secretary-General and his proposal of Our Common Agenda and, on the other, the insufficient progress towards the achievement of the Goals, ECLAC stresses once again its proposal to launch a decade of action for a change of era. The Sustainable Development Goals will not be achieved by doing more of the same; we must move towards a new, inclusive and sustainable economic and social system.This document presents specific proposals in four areas in which we must continue to work: strengthening multilateralism, particularly in the area of financing for development; improving implementation of productive, social and environmental policies of national and regional scope; building up the resilience of institutions; and overcoming conflicts through agreements and compacts. Foreword .-- Chapter I. Asymmetries, the impact of the pandemic and the cost of not committing to the future. A. The economic impact of the pandemic has been stronger in Latin America and the Caribbean than in other regions of the world. B. Social impact amplified by the inequality matrix. C. Global warming and the environmental vulnerability of the region .-- Chapter II. Trends in the Sustainable Development Goal indicators .-- Chapter III. Progress on quality education, gender equality and marine and terrestrial ecosystems .-- Chapter IV. Institutional progress on the means of implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development .-- Chapter VAgreements for a decade of action. A. Multilateralism, international financing and regional integration. B. Public policy at the core of a transformative recovery. C. Governance in a new pattern of development. D. Conflicts, instability and social compacts for sustainable development.

    El Instituto de Investigación Económica Aplicada (Ipea) y la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL) desarollaron, en 2019, una investigación comparativa buscando caracterizar y analizar las condiciones de gobernanza metropolitana en países del subcontinente latinoamericano, abarcando países federativos y países unitarios. América Latina constituye una de las regiones de más elevado grado de urbanización en el mundo, y el surgimiento de ciudades de más de millón de habitantes se ha acelerado en las últimas décadas, trayendo retos para el desarrollo urbano-metropolitano. La investigación, llevada a cabo con el apoyo de consultores contratados por la CEPAL, ha permitido identificar el estado del arte de la gobernanza metropolitana en la región, contribuyendo a la reflexión sobre el diseño, monitoreo y evaluación de políticas públicas en sus espacios metropolitanos. Es un documento de referencia para los académicos de esta área y una fuente de consulta imprescindible para los administradores públicos.

    The coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic is the worst global crisis since the Second World War, with developing countries suffering more devastating economic and social effects than developed countries. Governments’ increased pandemic-related expenditure combined with the drastic fall in tax revenues have increased their fiscal deficits and heightened their debt vulnerabilities. The generalized increase in fiscal imbalances and indebtedness has given rise to greater liquidity needs across developing countries, despite considerable heterogeneity in their fiscal positions and debt profiles.Easing liquidity constraints and expanding fiscal space for all developing countries requires alternative mechanisms in addition to existing credit facilities. The new general allocation of US$ 650 billion in Special Drawing Rights (SDRs) implemented on 23 August 2021 provided the most expedient mechanism to provide concessional liquidity at scale to all countries regardless of their level of income. Aside from its agility and financial effects, SDRs are the only democratic device to enhance policy space in developing economies, as it comes with no conditionalities. „ SDRs have several advantages over other IMF credit facilities and financing lines, including the fact that they do not generate debt, have a very low cost of use, and can reduce the risk premium for highly indebted countries. The new issuance of SDRs can help boost the level of international reserves of developing economies, strengthen their external positions, reduce their liquidity and default risk, and free up resources to meet the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Key messages .-- A. The pandemic and developing countries’ financing needs .-- B. SDRs and their advantages .-- C. Recipient countries ofthe SDR allocation .-- D. Determining the value of SDRs to be reallocated from developedto developing countries (low-and middle-income countries) .-- E. Proposed means of reallocating SDRs .-- F. Conclusion.

    For the fifth time, the countries of the region are convening in the framework of the Forum of the Countries of Latin America and the Caribbean on Sustainable Development. On each occasion, the Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean (ECLAC) has presented a report on regional progress and challenges in relation to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Since 2020, efforts to assess progress towards meeting the 2030 Agenda have had to be undertaken amid the constraints imposed by measures to address the coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic.In this difficult context, ECLAC continued to step up its efforts to assess the progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

    El Instituto de Investigación Económica Aplicada (Ipea) y la Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (CEPAL) desarollaron, en 2019, una investigación comparativa buscando caracterizar y analizar las condiciones de gobernanza metropolitana en países del subcontinente latinoamericano, abarcando países federativos y países unitarios. América Latina constituye una de las regiones de más elevado grado de urbanización en el mundo, y el surgimiento de ciudades de más de millón de habitantes se ha acelerado en las últimas décadas, trayendo retos para el desarrollo urbano-metropolitano. La investigación, llevada a cabo con el apoyo de consultores contratados por la CEPAL, ha permitido identificar el estado del arte de la gobernanza metropolitana en la región, contribuyendo a la reflexión sobre el diseño, monitoreo y evaluación de políticas públicas en sus espacios metropolitanos. Es un documento de referencia para los académicos de esta área y una fuente de consulta imprescindible para los administradores públicos.

    Rwanda is widely celebrated for the remarkable social, political, and economic renaissance it has experienced in the years following the genocide against the Tutsi of 1994. However, Rwanda appears to have relatively higher poverty rates than African peers with similar income per capita, and its elasticity of poverty reduction to growth is low compared to high‐growing SSA peers. Poverty is concentrated in rural areas and among households with many children. Rwanda now faces challenges in fully translating its very strong growth into commensurate gains in poverty reduction and shared prosperity. This Country Partnership Framework (CPF) sets out the World Bank Group’s (WBG) plans for addressing the country’s development priorities as identified in the 2019 Systematic Country Diagnostic (SCD) and Rwanda’s National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) well as supporting Rwanda’s response to the Coronavirus (COVID‐19) pandemic to recover from the negative public health and socio‐economic impacts of the pandemic. The CPF takes into account Rwanda’s anti‐crisis response program as of mid‐May 2020, including the government’s emergency Economic Recovery Plan, although it will likely continue to evolve in coming months. It was agreed with the authorities that should the situation warrant considerable changes to the government’s strategy and its program with the WBG, the Performance and Learning Review (PLR) will be brought forward to accommodate such changes. The CPF spans two IDA cycles, IDA19 (July 2020 to June 2023) and IDA 20 (July 2023 to June 2026). Given the country’s preference for frontloading its IDA commitment, and a track record of making good use of additional IDA resources available, Rwanda will explore the use of additional resources from IDA windows
