Развитие международных пассажирских железнодорожных перевозок
International rail passenger transport is of fundamental importance to the movement of people across borders in the ECE region a central role that was highlighted in Inland Transport Committee Resolution No. 264. The status of the development of international rail passenger transport is thus considered here in the context of ITC Resolution No. 264 and COVID-19 which offers beyond its negative economic impacts the opportunity to reconsider the role of rail transport in the ECE region and further its promotion in the post-pandemic recovery. As joint efforts are evidently needed the current focus on sustainability in the region’s transport sector may offer the opportunity to national international and private stakeholders to support rail transport development with a focus on intermodality. In turn a seamless more efficient and attractive network must be facilitated by the creation and implementation of appropriate legal instruments at a pan-European level.

Nevertheless it also illustrates the shortcomings in the areas of freedom empowerment of women and knowledge. No generation of young Arabs has been as numerous as today.

Report of the Inter-agency Task Force on Financing for Development 2022
The Financing for Sustainable Development Report (FSDR) assesses progress in implementing the commitments and actions in the Addis Ababa Action Agenda. The 2022 Financing for Sustainable Development Report: Bridging the Finance Divide identifies a “great finance divide” – the inability of poorer countries to raise sufficient resources and borrow affordably for investment. This contributed to developing countries being unable to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and will hold them back from responding to new crises and investing in sustainable development. Developing countries need reliable and affordable financing to invest in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
