Health drives prosperity. 🌍
In 2 days, the @GlobalFund’s 8th Replenishment will decide whether we keep Africa’s economies, and ours, on track.
HIV, TB & malaria cost up to 1.1% of GDP each year.
Investing in health isn’t charity - it’s smart economics.

Today, @Europarl_EN votes on its next long-term budget #MFF.

Behind the numbers is a crucial question: will the EU maintain its role as a credible donor, or will it quietly shift toward a transactional approach shaped by short-term political interests?

Hearing of @JozefSikela: "We will better utilize the Inequality Marker that helps ensuring that any development initiative contributes to reduce inequality in line with SDGs." We are looking forward to seeing the I-marker applied to all Global Gateway and ESFD+ projects

[antonio gambini @antoniojgambini]

Hearing of @JozefSikela Commissioner designate Sikela a bit unclear on whether Global Gateway is ODA or not... however it is funded by NDICI which has to be 93% ODA

📢 Oxfam joins 40+ orgs to urge the new @EU_Commission to invest at least €200bn in development assistance in the next #MFF.

Why?
💰 Every €1 invested in conflict prevention saves €15!
🤝 To protect people & the planet from the #ClimateCrisis.

The Draghi report calls for the #GlobalGateway to prioritise European industry’s strategic interests.
What better time to assess its flagship projects & debate the future of 🇪🇺 development?

📣 Apple #tax ruling: EU tax havens’ love affair with multinationals exposed

“This ruling [...] delivers long-overdue justice after over a decade of Ireland standing by and allowing Apple to dodge taxes”, said @ChiaraPutaturo.

🔴 The EU's duty to prioritise poverty eradication in its development policy is sorely missing.

The Global Gateway threatens to privatise EU aid and begs the question of who will really profit? EU companies and countries, or those in need?

[Oxfam EU @OxfamEU]

📢 EU must ditch plans to offshore asylum, say over 90 NGOs.

NGOs, including @Oxfam, @AmnestyEU, @hrw & @DRC_ngo, are sounding the alarm over attempts by the EU & EU countries to offload their migration responsibilities to countries outside of Europe

#SDRs are a goose that lays golden eggs. Let her live!
SDRs can be used toward development and climate goals. The monetary policy logic that underpins them justifies annual allocations of $200bn and doubling the share going to the Global South.

As European Foreign Ministers meet in Brussels today, we join to ask: how many more red lines will be crossed before the EU acts to stop the impunity in #Gaza?

Civilians, humanitarians & medics are paying the price.

[Oxfam EU @OxfamEU]

🤝 @JuttaUrpilainen also brushed aside criticism that the 🇪🇺 was making development funding conditional on action by partner countries to combat migration.

@Oxfam research shows the #EU risks violating global aid rules by using aid to halt migration.

🔴 Commissioner @JuttaUrpilainen missed a crucial point in her recent interview with @ftbrussels:

The #EU's development policy should prioritise eradicating poverty as outlined in EU treaties.

🚨 #EU leaders must stop dithering.

They must halt all arms sales to Israel, suspend the EU-Israel association agreement and push even harder for an immediate ceasefire.

#CeasefireNOW

Development =/ Trade & economic competition

As 🇪🇺 Dev. Ministers meet today at #FAC, our reminder that international partnerships should not become Trojan horses for EU corporate interests, leaving (once again!) partners & communities on the sidelines.
