Meeting Africas funding gap to meet the SDGs and how an MDP student is part of this ambitious objective COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY - SIPA Admissions Blog Africa faces an  annual funding gap of $1.3 trillion if it is to meet the SDGs by 2030.  MPA-DP student Ji Qi traveled to Kigali, Rwanda, as part of the program’s summer placement, to work at  The Sustainable Development Goals Center for Africa  and look at how development banks can improve their performance against international best practices and benchmarks to contribute to the achievement of the  #SDGs  in the continent. In his own words Im really glad to be part of this ambitious continent-wide initiative which can help  turn the  development  banks into the true driving  force behind Africas sustainable  development.
