Framework for analysis

Financing sustainable development will require capital flows to be redirected towards critical priorities and away from polluting and unsustainable, natural resource intensive activities. However, there is currently no commonly agreed basis for assessing financing needs for sustainable development. Many efforts have been made to estimate specific financing needs, most recently in the context of the UN Financing for Development conference. A range of estimates exist for different aspects of the financing challenge, notably access to energy, biodiversity, climate change, food security, water and sanitation.
