During the EU-CELAC Summit in Brussels, Prime Minister Gaston Browne emphasized the significance of the Multidimensional Vulnerability Index (MIV) to international financial institutions.
Co-chairing the UN High-Level Panel for MIV with former Norwegian PM Elna Solberg, Browne believes it can unlock substantial development financing for Small Island Developing States (SIDS) and other disadvantaged countries.
He urged all Summit states to back the MIV when presented to the UN General Assembly in September.
Browne was delighted with the Summit’s resumption after eight years and held private meetings with potential investors interested in Antigua and Barbuda during the event.
