The co-facilitators of the outcome document for the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4) – Mexico, Nepal, Norway and Zambia – released an elements paper on Friday, 22 November 2024.
The elements paper was prepared on the basis of close to 300 inputs from Member States, United Nations (UN) entities, international financial institutions, civil society, the private sector, academia and other stakeholders. As described in the letter from the co-facilitators announcing its release, the elements paper presents a broad set of proposals that reflect the high level of ambition for impactful solutions contained in the submissions.
The elements paper will guide substantive discussions at the second session of the FfD4 Preparatory Committee (PrepCom) from 3-6 December 2024. The views and feedback received during the second PrepCom session will inform the preparation of the zero draft of the FfD4 outcome document.
