The upcoming Financing for Development (FfD) conference will address major challenges hindering the efforts of developing countries towards sustainable development. The Group of 77 (G77) – a key platform for the Global South in the UN – will play an important role in bringing the interests and demands of the Global South forward. Unlike other more exclusive fora, FfD allows interested stakeholders to speak on eye-level and influence decision-making, which the G77 can utilise to its advantage. Negotiating as a coalition can improve capacity and improve bargaining position of developing countries. However, the G77 is also highly diverse and at times struggles to present a common group position, which can undermine its role as a driver of the Global South agenda in the FfD negotiations. This raises the question of the group’s unity during this process.
