Urgent US$621 Billion Need for Africa to Meet UN Sustainable Development Goals for Drinking Water, Sanitation and Electricity - Seite 3

In 2017, the Global Infrastructure Hub, in partnership with Oxford Economics, launched Global Infrastructure Outlook to explore how much the world needs to invest in infrastructure at a country and sector level up to 2040. It helps address a lack of detailed information relating to global infrastructure investment.

The most recent update to Global Infrastructure Outlook expands upon the 2017 study and focusses on 10 Compact with Africa countries. The report outlines total infrastructure investment needs, current investment trends and the specific investment required to meet water, sanitation and electricity UN Sustainable Development Goals.

About the Global Infrastructure Hub 

Launched in 2014 by the G20, the Global Infrastructure Hub is an organisation dedicated solely to infrastructure in both developed and emerging markets. The global challenge remains acute given population growth, increasing urbanisation, and a need to replace ageing infrastructure. We are helping governments unlock trillions of dollars in private investment to fund much-needed public infrastructure, creating productive economies and more liveable cities.  We work with both public and private sectors to facilitate knowledge-sharing, highlight reform opportunities, support the adoption of leading practices and help to build the global pipeline of quality, bankable infrastructure projects. We are independent and provide all our tools and services on an open and free to access platform. For more information, visit: http://gihub.org
