Aid, Trade, and the Post-2015 Development Agenda.
Founded on the core values of human rights, equality and sustainability, the UN's Post 2015 Development Agenda and its Global Partnership for Development aim to "ensure that globalization becomes a positive force for the world's people of present and future generations". A central question for this panel was how to ensure that globalization helps build sustainable and inclusive development. Another question adressed the role of aid and trade in helping developing countries benefit from globalization. Stakeholders from developed and developing countries, from the public sector and from civil society, debated how globalization can be shaped to benefit all.
