MORE: When it comes to transforming Paris into a “garden city,” they’re just getting started. The City’s goal is to reach 170,000 new trees by 2026, and they want 300 new hectares of green spaces (“green lungs”) opened to the public by 2040. A “more welcoming, calm & breathable” Paris.

Minister of Planning, Economic Development & International Cooperation, Egypt🇪🇬 | Ex. Min. of Tourism, Egypt | Advisor to Chief Economist, International Monetary Fund | Sub Gov. Monetary Policy, Central Bank of Egypt|
In economics, we say "all else equal", but in reality, everything else is not equal. Ongoing global challenges created repercussions on emerging economies. So, as we try to move forward, domestic resources are not enough in the backdrop of growing #development gaps. As the #UNGA79 #SummitOfTheFuture panel suggests, this calls for creating an effective, efficient, equitable & comprehensive multilateral debt mechanisms. But there is no magic-bullet solution, and rather a multidisciplinary approach to addressing development challenges including: clear national commitments, access to just finance, a strategic & achievable plan to ensure macroeconomic stability & structural reforms, & an integrated framework to mobilize domestic & int'l finance. From the panel on addressing debt challenges for #sustainable development, with UN Trade and Development (UNCTAD) Secretary-General Rebeca Grynspan, Multilateral Reform Program Director New York University Betty Wainaina & MGCY Representative Angela Zhong. Rewatch: https://lnkd.in/dmDdfPiq خلال فعاليات #UNGA79 بنيويورك، شاركتُ في جلسة نقاشية حول «معالجة تحديات الديون من أجل التنمية المستدامة»، حيث ناقشنا التحديات المتزايدة التي تواجه الاقتصادات الناشئة، في ظل عدم كفاية الموارد المحلية، وارتفاع فجوات التنمية، وهو ما يؤكد أهمية تدشين آليات متعددة الأطراف فعالة وذات كفاءة لمواجهة تلك التحديات. في مداخلتي، أكدتُ أنه لا يوجد حل سحري لتحديات التنمية، بل يتطلب ذلك منهج متعدد الأبعاد، يعكس الالتزامات الوطنية، ويحفز الوصول إلى التمويل العادل، ويقوم على خطة استراتيجية قابلة للتحقق لضمان الاستقرار الكلي، والإصلاحات الهيكلية، فضلًا عن إطار متكامل لحشد التمويل المحلي والدولي. تحدثتُ في الجلسة إلى جانب الأمين العام لمؤتمر الأمم المتحدة للتجارة والتنمية Rebeca Grynspan ومديرة برنامج الإصلاح متعددة الأطراف بجامعة نيويورك، بيتي وايناينا New York University وأنجيلا شونج ممثلة MGCY.

At the Ministerial Meeting on Africa (#AMCEN), ministries of #environment come together to discuss drought and land degradation. Over the past two years, the Global Environment Facility has successfully mobilized $1.4 billion across 201 projects aimed at tackling land degradation and drought. The GEF has proven to be an effective and efficient partner, helping countries assess and mitigate the impacts of climate change. Drought will become the biggest challenge for the world, even for tropical countries. Through its initiatives, the GEF will increase support for countries to build resilience to climate change and drought. Hear more from GEF CEO Carlos Manuel Rodriguez below. ⬇

𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗶𝗴𝗻𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘁𝗲𝘅𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘀𝗲𝗻𝘀𝗶𝘁𝗶𝘃𝗶𝘁𝘆 𝗮𝗰𝗿𝗼𝘀𝘀 𝘀𝗰𝗮𝗹𝗲𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝘆𝗽𝗼𝗹𝗼𝗴𝗶𝗲𝘀 Passive design strategies to plan for context-responsive development have evolved to be the third pillar of our #DesignPhilosophy over the years. Sustainable and context-addressing solutions are an urgency. Passive design becomes a key tool for adapting these ideas to every built environment. 1 and 2: The 2 lakh sq. m. masterplan for NIT’s vehicle-free Delhi campus includes multiple passive design strategies depending on the spatial program. Some clusters cyclically recycle grey water, while the academic spaces create an indoor microclimate through courtyards. 3 and 4: Eye Of Noida, or EON IT Park lays its basis on the concept of replacing the ‘glass box’ as an urbanism intervention. The design intends to reduce the Urban Heat Island effect by maximising green cover. The landscaped areas don’t just add to the sensory experience but also lend flexible, multi-utility avenues for interactions. The design is an outcome of planning for its context. #ArchitectureandDesign #Urbanism #GreenBuilding #PassiveSustainbility #CampusPlanning #DFIprojects
