The 2011 Arab uprisings promised political, economic, and social change for the Southern and Eastern Mediterranean. Since then, the region has changed, but not as many had expected. This paper discusses the investment strategies of two of the most important international partners for the region: the EU and China. The Global Gateway and Belt and Road strategies are mechanisms for building influence and accessing resources in a competitive global geostrategic environment. There are nevertheless important overlaps and potential synergies that could be exploited for the benefit of MENA societies as well as the EU and China.
The current debate on the Investment Facilitation for Development (IFD) Agreement could be very consequential for the World Trade Organization (WTO) although it is not part of the official calendar of next week’s 13th Ministerial Conference (MC13) in Abu Dhabi. A group of WTO Members have launched discussions on a plurilateral agreement on Investment Facilitation for Development at the 11th Ministerial Conference in 2017. These discussions have turned into actual negotiations from September 2020 onwards and in July 2023, around two thirds of the WTO’s Memberships concluded text-based negotiations. At MC13, Members aim at finalising the negotiations and integrating the plurilateral IFD Agreement into the WTO legal system. So what is at stake? Why is the IFD Agreement so controversial? And what do we know about its potential economic effects?
Bei der in der nächsten Woche stattfindenden WTO-Ministerkonferenz steht viel auf dem Spiel: Die Mitgliedstaaten müssen Entscheidungen für drängende Herausforderungen treffen – in einem Umfeld, das von Kriegen, Inflation und Protektionismus geprägt ist.
Two years after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine began, this Working Paper examines repercussions in Africa and on German Africa policy, analysing to what extent they are in continuity with trends that preceded the war and to what extent they represent a break with past patterns. Has the Ukraine war turned out to be a sea change for Africa and German Africa policy, too?

Die Covid-19-Pandemie, geopolitische Spannungen und gewaltsame Konflikte sowie Klima- und Schuldenkrisen haben das makroökonomische Umfeld verändert. In dieser neuen Realität steigender Zinssätze, hoher Inflation und zunehmender Verschuldung nimmt die Verfügbarkeit von Entwicklungsfinanzierung ab, während der Finanzierungsbedarf zur Erreichung der 17 Ziele für nachhaltige Entwicklung steigt. Politische Entscheidungsträger und internationale Finanzinstitutionen haben auf der Suche nach Lösungen eine Reihe von Initiativen gestartet. Darauf aufbauend werden in diesem Artikel (weitere) Maßnahmen und Reformen skizziert, um die Entwicklungsfinanzierung an dieses schwierige, von zahlreichen Krisen geprägte Umfeld anzupassen.

The Covid-19 pandemic, geopolitical tensions and violent conflicts as well as climate and debt crises have changed the macroeconomic environment. In this new reality of soaring interest rates, high inflation and increasing debt levels, the availability of development finance is decreasing, while the financing needs to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals are increasing. Policymakers and international financial institutions have launched a number of initiatives in a search of solutions. Building on those, this article outlines (further) measures and reforms to make development finance fit for this challenging environment shaped by multiple crises.
