Measure withdrawing US from Paris agreement also seems to suggest end of any spending at home and abroad that was designed in spirit or fact of climate agreements. This is part of review of foreign aid. It also presumably could have impact on US goals at IFIs/MDBs

📢 We call on #UN Member States to reaffirm the role of the #UnitedNations as a norm-setter in global economic governance & avoid seeing the #FfD process as a space that promotes the work of MDBs & IFIs and endorses decisions taken by a small group of self-appointed countries.

Expanding Syria’s multilateral development bank engagement
Estimates of Syria’s post-civil war cost of rebuilding range from $250 billion to $400 billion. To help finance reconstruction and development, Syria’s transitional government should expand its partnerships with international financial institutions (IFIs) and multilateral development banks (MDBs), as these institutions can play a key role in mobilizing global capital.
