  • G7 Leaders Summit 2020: Background Paper on Themes of G7 Leaders Summits (2012-2019)
    G7 Leaders Summit 2020: Background Paper on Themes of G7 Leaders Summits (2012-2019) G7 Commitments at a Glance Gender equality and women’s empowerment are at the heart of the universal 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the Sustainable Development Goals, specifically in relation to women’s economic empowerment (WEE). This WEE agenda has evolved through further engagement with governments and other key stakeholders, such as during the 2017 United Nations Commission on the Status of Women, the Secretary-General’s High-Level Panel on Women’s Economic Empowerment, the Group of 20 (G20) and the Group of 7 (G7). The G7 has articulated its WEE position in the G7 Common Principles on Women’s Entrepreneurship (2015 Elmau); G7 Guiding Principles for Building the Capacity of Women and Girls (Ise-Shima 2016); the G7 Roadmap for a Gender-Responsive Economic Environment (Taormina 2017); the Charlevoix G7 Summit Communique (Charlevoix 2018) and Paris Declaration on Gender Equality (Biarritz 2019). The G7 recognizes that women are key drivers of innovation, growth and jobs, and that the private sector plays a vital role in creating an environment in which women can more meaningfully participate in the economy. The group has set concrete targets, such as reducing the gender gap in labour force participation rates by 25% by 2025, and to increase spending on Technical Education and Vocational Training (TVET) by a third by 2030. In the last four years, the G7 countries have committed to: invest in women’s skills development and TVET; facilitate women's labour force participation, career advancement, and work life balance; stimulate women’s entrepreneurship and the growth and sustainability of women-owned businesses; and accelerate the adoption and implementation of the UN Women’s Empowerment Principles (WEPs).

  • Educational Opportunity for All: Overcoming Inequality Throughout the Life Course, OECD Publishing, Paris
    Educational Research and Innovation Educational Opportunity for All OVERCOMING INEQUALITY THROUGHOUT THE LIFE COURSE Educational Research and Innovation Equitable educational opportunities can help to promote long-lasting, inclusive economic growth and social cohesion. Successful education and skills policies can empower individuals reach their full potential and enjoy Educational Opportunity for All the fruits of their labour, regardless of their circumstances at birth. However, as this report shows, far too many children, students and adults from socio-economically disadvantaged backgrounds fall behind. In many OVERCOMING INEQUALITY THROUGHOUT countries, substantial learning gaps exist between students at opposite ends of the socio-economic scale, and these differences tend to increase in the transition into adulthood. THE LIFE COURSE All countries have ample room for improvement to ensure better learning outcomes for all. Early childhood Course Inequality Life Opportunitythe Educational throughout Overcoming All for education has been identified as an important element in future success, and requires investment, as do family and community-based support and programmes for children from families that have not attained a high level of education and skills. In the schools, targeted support is necessary for low performers from disadvantaged backgrounds and for poorly performing schools. As for the adult population, learning should be focused on improving employability, through a combination of education and practical job training. Barriers to participation in learning need to be removed, and delivery methods need to be more innovative and flexible. Targeted support is needed for the most vulnerable members of society.

  • The Italian Republic Positions for the United Nations Development
    The Italian Republic Positions for the United Nations Development Programme Executive Board I. Addressing Growing Levels of Sovereign Debt Related to Development Financing The Italian Republic is keenly aware of the dangers that can accompany sovereign debt. Even as a developed Member State with the third-largest national economy in the European Union and the eighth-largest economy in the world, Italy suffers from structural economic issues, developmental disparities between our northern and southern regions, a tough recovery following the Great Recession, and now the devastating effects of COVID-19. Our current debt to GDP ratio is nearly 135 percent. Since the start of the COVID-19 crisis, our economy has already contracted 13 percent, surpassing the IMF’s prediction of a 10 percent contraction for the fiscal year. Additionally, our deficit has reached 15 percent of GDP. The Italian Republic’s debt burden is set to reach 180 percent by the end of 2020. While domestic investors and central banks are the majority holders of Italian debt, nearly 34 percent of our debt is held by foreign investors including France, Germany, Belgium, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the United States. Prior to the events of 2020, the European Commission had started a debt-driven excessive deficit procedure with us as a result of our current levels of debt and our struggle to pay down current debts. Despite recommendations from the IMF, the European Commission, and the European Central Bank (ECB), we have found it necessary to increase spending even though we are already running a surplus deficit in order to provide much needed economic relief during these unprecedented times.

  • From the Vice Provost Inaugural Global Summer Institute
    From the Vice Provost Welcome back to the fall semester! I am very pleased to announce that the inaugural Global Summer Institute (GSI) at Stony Brook University was a great success. We had more than 230 students from 7 countries participate in both certificate and credit-bearing programs. These students were paired with more than 30 Stony Brook students who served as their cultural guides and global ambassadors. Our participants included several incoming undergraduate international students who were able to get a head start toward their degree while experiencing cultural activities aimed at familiarizing them with the University and the region. All our GSI students enjoyed their experiences, and those who took academic courses achieved an average GPA of 3.5! We are excited to continue the GSI program next summer, and anticipate an increased number of students. Among our top priorities as we continue into the new academic year are international student success and encouraging study abroad opportunities. The International Student Success Task Force finalized and presented recommendations on improving outcomes for our international student population. As we welcome 1,500 new international students to campus this semester, we will continue developing these innovative ideas. The International Academic Programs (IAP) office saw an increase of 100 students for summer study abroad programs over the previous year. IAP is actively developing study abroad opportunities, such as the new CEAS Global Innovation program at the Turkana Basin Institute, and is also striving to make the study abroad process easier by creating a database to help transfer credits back to Stony Brook.
