The European Development Days (EDD), organised by the European Commission, bring the development community together each year to share ideas and experiences in ways that inspire new partnerships and innovative solutions to the world’s most pressing challenges.
The EDD 2019 will focus on "Addressing inequalities: building a world which leaves no one behind” with a full programme based on three major themes:
- Why inequalities matter for sustainable development
- Understanding the structural causes of inequalities
- Working better together through more effective policies to address inequalities
The European Investment Bank is participating in the EDD 2019 as we increased our development cooperation with the EU, bringing a joined-up and responsive EU engagement in countries where the needs are greatest.
Come and join us at the EIB stand 94 in the EDD Global village where we share our stories with the audience, showing how our investments are creating opportunities for entrepreneurs, rural communities, women and the youth.
Meet the bank’s experts in development, join our lab debates with inspiring and passionate professionals and learn how the EIB and its partners can contribute to shape a sustainable and inclusive living for all.
You will get the chance to try our 360° virtual reality experience which will take you to waste pickers working on an open waste dump in Argentina.
