Hamza Saoudi will be speaking in the XIII Annual Conference on the Global Economy, taking place on December 3–5, 2025, in Moscow, Russia. He will speak on December 4 during Session 3: “A New Attempt: What Should the Post-2030 Development Agenda Look Like?”. 

With 2030 approaching, many UN Sustainable Development Goals are unlikely to be met, prompting early discussions on a post-2030 agenda. The session will explore whether new goals are needed, how to ensure their success, the role of BRICS countries in shaping the agenda, and how the New BRICS Development Bank could support sustainable development financing.

 

Main issues for discussion: 

• Does the world need new Sustainable Development Goals after 2030? How can we ensure that these goals are fulfilled, unlike the previous ones? 

• Are the BRICS countries ready to come up with their own initiatives on the further development of the sustainable development agenda?

 • What role can the New BRICS Development Bank play in creating new financing mechanisms for sustainable development?
