Summary: Concerning trends loom on the horizon and are shaping the future of development. Large parts of the world are growing increasingly fragile, and climate change and its effects are affecting an ever-larger portion of the world’s population, with the hardest impacts on the poorest and most vulnerable. Nationalism and isolationism compound these trends and have been given additional oxygen from the COVID-19 pandemic.
