A/66/334 - Innovative mechanisms of financing for development
Resumo
The General Assembly, in its resolution 65/146, highlighted the considerable progress in innovative sources of financing for development achieved to date, and stressed the importance of scaling up present initiatives and developing new mechanisms, as appropriate. The Assembly reiterated that such voluntary mechanisms should be effective, should aim to mobilize resources that are stable and predictable, should supplement and not be a substitute for traditional sources of financing, should be disbursed in accordance with the priorities of developing countries and should not unduly burden such countries. In the same resolution, the General Assembly requested the Secretary-General to submit to it at its sixty-sixth session a report examining the contribution and potential of innovative mechanisms of financing for development in respect of achieving the internationally agreed development goals, including the Millennium Development Goals, as well as their effectiveness and their implications, taking into account that such mechanisms should be voluntary in nature and should not unduly burden developing countries. The present report is in response to that request.
