Sustainability through Quality Infrastructure

Pathways Ahead of the Osaka G20 Summit
Friday, June 21, 2019 9:00 am - 10:30 am
CSIS Headquarters, 2nd Floor
Download the Brief

 



For many developing countries, the absence of quality infrastructure is a significant bottleneck to sustainable economic growth. A large number of studies have demonstrated that quality infrastructure yields large scale and long-term economic dividends. Political leadership in host countries is required to ensure that quality infrastructure investments are made. With support from donor countries and multilateral development banks, such efforts to pursue sustainable quality infrastructure can be supplemented with planning and procurement practices that look at long-term economic efficiency and life-cycle costs.

CSIS, with generous support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan, undertook a comprehensive research study to examine the importance of transparency and sustainability in achieving quality infrastructure, the findings from which have been captured in a short policy brief. Through this public event, CSIS and its panel will share insights that build on the emerging consensus among G20 member states ahead of the Osaka summit. The inputs and recommendations of the policy brief will enable more quality infrastructure.

Please join us at CSIS for this timely discussion on quality infrastructure in the context of the upcoming Osaka G20 Summit.

This event is made possible through generous support from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Japan.
