Financing the Post-2015 Agenda: Toward a Shared Vision

However, with the recent announcement of the Third International Conference on Financing for Development in July 2015 in Addis Ababa, world leaders have also started turning their attention to the critical matter of how to finance the post-2015 agenda.The SDGs will be more ambitious than the MDGs, covering a broad range of interconnected issues, from economic growth to social issues to global public goods.
