  • How the first 100 days of Trump's presidency impacted global development?

    How the first 100 days of Trump's presidency impacted global development?
    2025/05/01
    This week marked the first 100 days of the second Trump presidency. From the cutting of foreign aid programs to the laying off of government staff, we reflect on the second Trump administration's impact on the global development sector.

    On the topic of the U.S. government, the Department of Government Efficiency is also planning to shut down the Millennium Challenge Corporation. However, efforts are underway to try and save the agency, which has enjoyed bipartisan support and is seen as a key tool to countering China's geopolitical influence.

    We also look back at the key takeaways from the Global Inclusive Growth Summit hosted by the Mastercard Center for Inclusive Growth, where Devex was a media partner.

    To dig into these stories, and others, Devex Editor Rumbi Chakamba sits down with Devex President and Editor-in-Chief Raj Kumar and Senior Reporter Adva Saldinger for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series.

  • Special episode: What’s at stake in the race for critical raw materials?

    Special episode: What’s at stake in the race for critical raw materials?
    2025/04/29
    Conversations about critical raw materials — the natural resources that power  everything from clean energy to smart phones, electric vehicles, and even AI systems — are not ones you hear about in every development circle, but this is starting to change. Given their critical role in the global economy and sustainable technology, they are now at the center of geopolitical power struggles, supply chain shocks, and debates around equity, governance, and sustainability.

    “All the world is talking about going from fossil fuels to decarbonization, and how we should do the green transition … But all of this will need the relevant equipment, and this relevant equipment demands critical raw materials,” said Olena Pavlenko, President and co-founder of DiXi Group, a Ukrainian think tank focused on the energy sector.

    One key challenge for the development sector is ensuring the equitable distribution of critical raw materials, especially to resource-rich nations that often miss out on their benefits.
    “A lot of countries in the African continent contain many of these materials, but aren't necessarily the beneficiaries of a lot of the value that's extracted from them,” said Brian Kagoro, the managing director of programs at Open Society Foundations.

    Pavlenko and Kagoro were joined by Devex Executive Vice President Kate Warren on the sidelines of the World Bank-IMF Spring Meetings in Washington, DC, for a special podcast sponsored by the Open Society Foundations.

  • Live from the World Bank meetings, an inside look at the targeting of MCC

    Live from the World Bank meetings, an inside look at the targeting of MCC
    2025/04/24
    With the World Bank and International Monetary Fund Spring Meetings in full swing, we are recording live from the conference. From the United States’ approach to the institutions to how to create more jobs in the global workforce, we take a look at the key discussion points at the summit.

    On the topic of the U.S., we chew over the possibility that the uncertainty surrounding potential tariffs imposed by President Donald Trump’s administration may be more damaging than the tariffs themselves, drying up liquidity and forcing painful choices on indebted nations.

    During the conversation, we also get into our scoop on the Department of Government Efficiency’s targeting of the Millennium Challenge Corporation. In the coming weeks, the agency is expected to face a reduction in both staff and programming.

    To explore these stories, Business Editor David Ainsworth sits down with reporters Adva Saldinger and Jesse Chase-Lubitz, who are covering the Spring Meetings this week, for the latest episode of our weekly podcast series.
