For the past 60 years UN Development helped create the enabling environment for investments. In our support for financing sustainable development, we must continue, especially in emerging markets. Building Bridges

Switzerland's support is catalytic, and it helps leverage other financing, create global public goods while unlocking shared opportunities!

Cyber resilience is key to development- it's a growth opportunity and a risk mitigation strategy. Developing countries are more vulnerable to cyber risk, which exposes the global system. We need partnerships to prevent future risks.

I've learnt a lot from the discussions today! Cyber resilience is not a technical issue, it's a development priority and we need to invest more in developing countries and fragile contexts to mitigate future risks!
