Certainly. I think it's both, actually, and maybe a little bit more. Official development assistance is the most immediate source of revenue, if you want, or funding for reducing poverty, for tackling inequality, for ensuring that we leave no one behind. The sorts of investments that we need to make in tackling poverty aren't going to come from other sources of finance. I think ODA, official development assistance, is still a key resource for tackling inequality.
I agree with you fully that there are other sources of finance that we need to add to this mix. We know that it's going to cost trillions of dollars to realize the sustainable development goals, so we need to think about remittances. How can we reduce the amount of transfer fees that individuals are paying? With regard to remittances, I think it is also a conscious choice by an individual to use migration as a source of income for their family. In the Philippines, for example, their biggest export is their people, but that comes at a social cost to the individuals, the children and the families they leave behind.
Hopefully this week when Prime Minister Trudeau speaks to the United Nations, he'll talk about other initiatives, including how we might direct some of our pension funds or how we can start directing more foreign direct investment towards developing countries and countries that need it.
