The financial crisis in developing countries: the impact and the remedies
Tamyn kehy- ja ympäristöviikko: puhujavieraana Kepan kehityspoliittinen asiantuntija Tytti Nahi. Linna K109
Tytti Nahi works as Advocacy officer at Kepa, the umbrella body of Finnish NGOs working on global development issues. Her presentation will be an overview of the impact of the recent financial crisis on developing countries. There have been notable cuts in remittances, export revenues and public budgets and, for the first time ever, the number of hungry people stood at over 1 billion people in 2009. The bright side is that international talks on several much-needed reforms, such as the financial transaction tax, have gained momentum.
The lecture is part of the Development cooperation and environment week organized by the Student Union. See the week's programme at www.tamy.fi/kehyviikko/2010 --> IN ENGLISH
