Sigrid Kaag - 103rd Meeting of the Development Committee - April 9, 2021","Statement by H.E. Sigrid Kaag, Minister for Foreign Trade and Development Cooperation of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, representing her constituency, delivered at the 103rd Development Committee meeting (virtual) on April 9, 2021. The statement highlights the compounding COVID-19 and climate crises and their effects on poverty, jobs, schooling, and SDG progress. It calls for country-based recovery strategies, alignment of Bank instruments with long-term agendas, stronger health systems, equitable vaccine access, mental health support, and financing that complements COVAX. It also emphasizes debt vulnerability work, equal burden sharing, and coherent approaches beyond the DSSI.","Public Disclosure Authorized Public Disclosure Authorized  \nDEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE  \n(Joint Ministerial Committee  \nof the  \nBoards of Governors ofthe Bank and the Fund  \non the  \nTransfer of Real Resources to Developing Countries)  \nONE HUNDRED AND THIRD MEETING WASHINGTON, DC – APRIL 9, 2021  \n(VIRTUAL)  \nDC/S/2021-0026 April 9, 2021  \nStatement by  \nH.E.

It is estimated that around 100 million people will fall back into extreme poverty, more than 100 million jobs have been lost, and millions of children have been deprived of schooling. COVID-19 has set back progress on the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) dramatically. Multilateral efforts will be key in meeting the challenges faced by affected countries in the coming years. Our constituency welcomes this year’s Spring Meetings’ focus on vaccines, debt and recovery. Such an emphasis is crucial, in order to achieve a resilient, inclusive and sustainable recovery in line with the SDGs, the Paris Climate Agreement, and the principle of ‘Leave No One Behind’. In this context, we would like to thank the Bank and its dedicated staff for the support provided to our constituency countries in their hour of need. We count on your continued support as we face the pandemic and its severe economic consequences.  \nTo be successful the Bank should work with country-based recovery strategies and adjust country programmes in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, tailoring the Bank’s interventions to each client’s needs. Analyses of poverty, inclusion and the gender-differentiated impact of COVID-19 should inform this approach. As fragility, conflict, and violence (FCV) have worsened in many regions, significant efforts must be made to address FCV drivers so that those populations do not fall further behind as the global recovery proceeds. It is indispensable to the effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability of the Bank’s response to work in partnership with the UN, other multilateral development banks and development partners. The Integrated National Financing Frameworks for the SDGs provide a logical framework for this. Transformative interventions require the full alignment of instruments and programmes with global, long-term agendas, while involving all players, including local organisations.  \n[COVID-19: World Bank Group support for fair and affordable access to vaccines for developing countries]  \nThe COVID-19 crisis has underlined that investing in health is a key precondition for economic growth. We need resilient health systems that can respond to future pandemics, while continuing to provide regular care for all, including the most marginalised. We should also ensure that people have equal access to vaccines, not forgetting people on the move such as migrants, refugees and internally displaced persons (IDPs) . We should support host countries in promoting access for migrants, refugees and IDPs to both national healthcare systems and social safety nets.  \nWhile allocating funds to vaccination programmes, we must not lose sight of long-term goals such as ensuring that well-functioning health systems can prevent future outbreaks from leading to major health crises: providing
