GENEVA, Switzerland – The first session of the Preparatory Committee (PrepCom) for the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development (FfD4) will review progress and gaps in implementing the Addis Ababa Action Agenda and identify actions to accelerate reaching the Sustainable Development Goals.
The PrepCom session will feature a two-day ministerial segment, with a scene-setting panel to launch the preparations for the conference with a high level of political ambition. This is followed by three days of multi-stakeholder roundtables, addressing all action areas of the Addis Ababa Action Agenda. These will assess progress made and spark new ideas to bridge remaining gaps in implementation.
The meeting will take place at the Abissinia Hall of the Ethiopian Skylight Hotel in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia from 22 to 26 July 2024.
Participation in FfD4 and its preparatory process is established by the General Assembly in its resolution 78/271 on further modalities of the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development.
