Development Co-operation Report 2020
Learning from Crises, Building Resilience
The devastating impacts of coronavirus (COVID-19) on developing countries have tested the limits, ingenuity and flexibility of development co-operation while also uncovering best practices. This 58th edition of the Development Co-operation Report draws out early insights from leaders, OECD members, experts and civil society on the implications of coronavirus (COVID-19) for global solidarity and international co-operation for development in 2021 and beyond. The report suggests ways forward for the international development community as a whole for bold action and systemic reform to build resilient national and international systems capable of coping with global shocks, and providing and protecting global public goods while reinforcing the fundamental building blocks for sustainable development. The annual “development co-operation at a glance” infographics showcase the latest trends in development finance for over 80 providers of development co-operation, including members of the OECD, the Development Assistance Committee, other countries and philanthropic foundations.

Youth leadership in crisis response and supporting resilient communities
Young people have stepped up to lead COVID-19 response in Brazil’s favelas, where critics say many people living in these informal settlements had difficulty accessing government assistance. This case study provides a snapshot of recent Resilient Realities research on the pandemic’s impacts on Brazil’s youth organisations, giving voice to some of those who organised COVID-19 fundraising and relief work. It argues that to build resilient communities and take the realities of their experiences into account, youth organisations must be involved in decisions on economic and social recovery.
