BAPA+40: new dynamics and practices of international cooperation for development

Event Type
Roundtable Discussion

Location / Date
Bonn, 09.12.2019

Federal ministry for economic cooperation and development (BMZ), German Development Institute / Deutsches Institut für Entwicklungspolitik

Development cooperation is going through a transition period, with huge cacophony among the different stakeholders. Especially from the turn of the 21st century, new modalities, new actors and new relationship dynamics have been established. No longer is traditional ODA between a DAC-donor and a recipient country the sole guiding practice of international development cooperation. March 2019 saw the 2nd UN High-Level Conference on South-South Cooperation (BAPA+40), consolidating South-South cooperation as central to achieving the 2030 Agenda and highlighting the role of triangular cooperation. This roundtable aimed to reflect on the outcomes of the conference, debating the future of the cooperation for development and its modalities.
