G7 leaders, together with partner countries Egypt, India, Kenya, and South Korea, have called for a stronger coordinated international response to the Ebola outbreak in the Democratic Republic of Congo and Uganda.
In a joint statement, the leaders reaffirmed their commitment to international cooperation on development and investment finance, describing it as essential for shared prosperity and support to vulnerable populations.
They stressed that while concessional official development assistance, blended finance, and private capital remain important, the global development finance system must be reformed to address today’s challenges better better.
