ACHIEVING THE SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS, MOBILIZING RESOURCES AND STRENGTHENING STAKEHOLDER CONNECTIONS

Abstract

The implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals represents the largest coordinated resource mobilisation challenge in the history of international development, requiring the systematic alignment of financial instruments, physical infrastructure investment, human capital development, technological capacity, and multi-stakeholder engagement within a coherent, equitable, and efficient resourcing architecture. This article investigates the theoretical frameworks and empirical evidence governing SDG resource mobilisation, analysing domestic revenue mobilisation strategies, international financing mechanisms, blended finance instruments, infrastructure investment frameworks, and the governance of multi-stakeholder resource partnerships.
