World leaders rebuke ‘narrow unilateralism’ and call for nations to urgently join forces to combat inequality

40 former Heads of State and Government are calling for “a new economic coalition of the willing” to urgently tackle inequality and “remake our world in response” to “era-defining disruption”. In a joint letter released ahead of the Fourth International Conference on Financing for Development in Seville, they call for a restoration of development aid, comprehensive debt relief, international tax cooperation, and ambitious reform of the world’s “outdated” economic model.
