On April 5, Professor of the School of World Economy at the Higher School of Economics Leonid Grigoryev and Associate Professor of the School of World Economy Alexandra Morozkina made a presentation on the topic "NDB and evolving agenda for development cooperation" at a conference in Durban (South Africa).

Leonid Grigoryev and Alexandra Morozkina spoke about the changes in the global sustainable development agenda and the role of the New Development Bank in implementing the SDGs and shaping the global agenda in this area.

In the report, the authors described the challenges faced by the global sustainable development agenda, in particular, the instability of the results achieved and the need to revise the goals due to their unattainability, which especially affected Goal 1 (eradicating poverty), Goal 2 (zero hunger), Goal 3 (universal health) and Goal 10 (inequalities).

Further, the authors presented the results of their analysis of ongoing projects of the New Development Bank in the context of the implementation of the SDGs and made a conclusion about the orientation of the NDB policy towards sustainable development.
