13 April, Koror, Palau - As the saying goes, we know more about the surface of the moon than the seafloor of our own ocean. But perhaps not for too much longer.
The crippling cost of debt financing for many developing countries has hamstrung their recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic, forced cutbacks in development spending, and constrained their ability to respond to further shocks, according to a new report launched by the United Nations today. ?
General Assembly resolution 76/203 established a representative high-level panel of experts co-chaired by two eminent persons, one of whom shall be from a small island developing State.
This decision was in response to the Secretary General’s recommendation that the United Nations system develop a multidimensional vulnerability index for Small Island Developing States (SIDS).
All countries are vulnerable in one form or another.
