1 00:00:00,120 --> 00:00:04,200 Speaker 1: Gates Foundation CEO Mark Susman says the way wealthier countries 2 00:00:04,320 --> 00:00:09,039 Speaker 1: responded to the pandemic stoked mistrust with countries let's struggle 3 00:00:09,119 --> 00:00:13,440 Speaker 1: with poverty. In a wide ranging conversation, Susman talks about 4 00:00:13,440 --> 00:00:16,800 Speaker 1: the growing gap between what's known as the Global South 5 00:00:16,960 --> 00:00:20,800 Speaker 1: and the global North, and his latest peace in Foreign Affairs, 6 00:00:21,079 --> 00:00:24,439 Speaker 1: the roots of the Global South's new resentment, and he 7 00:00:24,520 --> 00:00:28,160 Speaker 1: spoke with Bloomberg's Jennifer Zabasajah. 8 00:00:28,200 --> 00:00:30,000 Speaker 2: Mark, thank you so much for being here. 9 00:00:30,040 --> 00:00:32,479 Speaker 3: I want to start first with this abed that you 10 00:00:32,520 --> 00:00:35,040 Speaker 3: wrote in the Foreign Affairs and specifically a quote that 11 00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:38,120 Speaker 3: you touched on. You said, wealthy countries need to take 12 00:00:38,159 --> 00:00:42,240 Speaker 3: concrete steps towards repairing the trust deficit or the rift 13 00:00:42,280 --> 00:00:44,479 Speaker 3: will grow with a lot of African countries. 14 00:00:44,520 --> 00:00:45,600 Speaker 2: Can you talk about. 15 00:00:45,320 --> 00:00:48,839 Speaker 4: That, yes, so very specifically, whether it comes to the 16 00:00:48,880 --> 00:00:52,720 Speaker 4: discussion about climate, whether it discussions to discussion around the 17 00:00:52,800 --> 00:00:56,200 Speaker 4: COVID response, whether it comes now to the discussion around 18 00:00:56,200 --> 00:00:59,680 Speaker 4: critical issues like the debt crisis. There is a huge 19 00:00:59,680 --> 00:01:02,760 Speaker 4: amount of rhetorical commitment, a lot of which you will 20 00:01:02,800 --> 00:01:07,240 Speaker 4: hear in meeting after meeting here in Marrakesh, about what 21 00:01:07,400 --> 00:01:09,960 Speaker 4: could and should be done. But when you actually look 22 00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:12,680 Speaker 4: at where the follow up is, is there actually money 23 00:01:12,840 --> 00:01:16,760 Speaker 4: resources policy being implemented that support the countries of the 24 00:01:16,760 --> 00:01:20,760 Speaker 4: Global South, and particularly supporting the low income countries that 25 00:01:20,800 --> 00:01:24,080 Speaker 4: are facing the greatest pressure. Sadly, we have not yet 26 00:01:24,160 --> 00:01:25,039 Speaker 4: seen very much. 27 00:01:26,200 --> 00:01:29,959 Speaker 3: Are you seeing steps taken towards reversing that though? 28 00:01:30,000 --> 00:01:30,520 Speaker 2: This week? 29 00:01:30,800 --> 00:01:32,759 Speaker 5: Yes, well that is absolutely the hope. 30 00:01:32,840 --> 00:01:35,760 Speaker 4: So I think a Jabanga, as the new head of 31 00:01:35,800 --> 00:01:39,040 Speaker 4: the World Bank, has put forward an ambitious agenda. There's 32 00:01:39,040 --> 00:01:43,120 Speaker 4: some very exciting proposals both around bigger issues about how 33 00:01:43,160 --> 00:01:46,160 Speaker 4: you might use and expand hybrid capital around critical issues 34 00:01:46,160 --> 00:01:50,360 Speaker 4: like the energy transition, but and also how we might 35 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:56,360 Speaker 4: reinvigorate instruments like IDA, which is the International Development Associations, 36 00:01:56,400 --> 00:01:58,639 Speaker 4: the pool of World Bank resources that the low income 37 00:01:58,680 --> 00:02:02,240 Speaker 4: countries draw from. And so again there's a lot of 38 00:02:02,240 --> 00:02:04,200 Speaker 4: good things being said, but what we really need to 39 00:02:04,240 --> 00:02:07,760 Speaker 4: see is that translate into actual commitments, both into there's 40 00:02:07,880 --> 00:02:11,480 Speaker 4: currently a crisis window that's open requesting resources for EIDA 41 00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:13,760 Speaker 4: that we'd like to see high income countries contribute to. 42 00:02:13,760 --> 00:02:15,560 Speaker 5: This week, have a big. 43 00:02:15,360 --> 00:02:19,400 Speaker 4: Commitment about what's going to come in the forthcoming cop 44 00:02:20,440 --> 00:02:22,799 Speaker 4: The Conference of parties that are on climate that we'll 45 00:02:22,840 --> 00:02:25,640 Speaker 4: have in the UAE, and to make sure again that 46 00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:30,600 Speaker 4: there's a big focus on topics like adaptation currently adaptation, 47 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:36,160 Speaker 4: which is really how countries deal now with the consequences droughts, 48 00:02:36,200 --> 00:02:40,160 Speaker 4: floods related crises, where the countries of the global South, 49 00:02:40,240 --> 00:02:43,079 Speaker 4: particularly in the tropics, are by far the most affected 50 00:02:43,160 --> 00:02:47,920 Speaker 4: in real time, especially farmers and communities like that. But 51 00:02:48,120 --> 00:02:51,480 Speaker 4: so far, roughly only about a tenth of the resources 52 00:02:51,480 --> 00:02:53,760 Speaker 4: to go to climate go into those kinds of investments, 53 00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:56,800 Speaker 4: and so for all of those, there's some great proposals 54 00:02:56,880 --> 00:02:59,360 Speaker 4: on the table, both here this week and for the 55 00:02:59,360 --> 00:03:02,400 Speaker 4: coming Climate Summit, and we very much hope that this 56 00:03:02,520 --> 00:03:05,320 Speaker 4: comes apart so we will see a real shift in 57 00:03:05,400 --> 00:03:07,840 Speaker 4: momentum and energy and attention. But the test will be 58 00:03:08,240 --> 00:03:09,600 Speaker 4: do the resources follow. 59 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:12,120 Speaker 3: And we've heard from the African Union as well sort 60 00:03:12,160 --> 00:03:15,160 Speaker 3: of make their own calls, especially something that you've echoed 61 00:03:15,280 --> 00:03:19,160 Speaker 3: MDB reforms in particular, is the Gates Foundation aligned with 62 00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:20,760 Speaker 3: what the African Union is calling for? 63 00:03:20,960 --> 00:03:22,480 Speaker 2: Do you want to take it even a step further 64 00:03:22,560 --> 00:03:23,239 Speaker 2: than what dy'd ask. 65 00:03:23,320 --> 00:03:25,680 Speaker 4: No, we're very aligned, and actually we'll be hosting some 66 00:03:25,720 --> 00:03:29,959 Speaker 4: meetings today and tomorrow that work, particularly with a group 67 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:33,560 Speaker 4: of African finance ministers and other partners, to make sure 68 00:03:33,560 --> 00:03:38,000 Speaker 4: there is a strong aligned voice coming from Africa specifically, 69 00:03:38,080 --> 00:03:40,760 Speaker 4: but the Global South more broadly around the steps that 70 00:03:40,880 --> 00:03:44,200 Speaker 4: need to take place and the expectation that the multilateral 71 00:03:44,240 --> 00:03:47,280 Speaker 4: Development Banks and when you talk about MDB reform, will 72 00:03:47,320 --> 00:03:50,840 Speaker 4: still keep a firm focus on the primary mission of 73 00:03:50,960 --> 00:03:54,680 Speaker 4: investing in poverty reduction and in health and education and 74 00:03:54,760 --> 00:04:00,440 Speaker 4: other core human capital investments, and that as we tackle 75 00:04:00,560 --> 00:04:03,560 Speaker 4: the very critical issue of climate that does not come 76 00:04:03,600 --> 00:04:06,160 Speaker 4: at the expense of those core investments, but it really 77 00:04:06,240 --> 00:04:07,000 Speaker 4: is additional. 78 00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:08,840 Speaker 5: It's a both and set of investments. 79 00:04:08,880 --> 00:04:11,280 Speaker 3: And if that doesn't happen, you mentioned the rift will grow. 80 00:04:11,480 --> 00:04:14,000 Speaker 3: What does that mean, I mean, what does that look 81 00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:17,120 Speaker 3: like in today's terms, Well, the. 82 00:04:17,200 --> 00:04:20,279 Speaker 4: Rift has very concrete consequences in terms of the impact 83 00:04:20,279 --> 00:04:23,480 Speaker 4: on people. Already, there are over sixty countries in the 84 00:04:23,520 --> 00:04:27,200 Speaker 4: Global South, very many of them on the continent of Africa, 85 00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:30,000 Speaker 4: who are paying more in debt service than they are 86 00:04:30,040 --> 00:04:32,880 Speaker 4: in health and education. That clearly is not the right 87 00:04:32,960 --> 00:04:35,159 Speaker 4: kind of prioritization that we need if we're going to 88 00:04:35,200 --> 00:04:38,960 Speaker 4: be investing in the continent of the future, and so 89 00:04:39,200 --> 00:04:41,880 Speaker 4: we need to have a set of steps which include 90 00:04:41,920 --> 00:04:44,919 Speaker 4: we haven't mentioned the debt relief, but some steps of 91 00:04:44,920 --> 00:04:48,280 Speaker 4: debt relief, some forms of new concessional capital coming in 92 00:04:48,680 --> 00:04:52,440 Speaker 4: that are in exchange for countries prioritizing these sets of 93 00:04:52,480 --> 00:04:55,359 Speaker 4: investments in their own people. And if you don't have 94 00:04:55,440 --> 00:04:57,680 Speaker 4: it first and foremost, what you'll see is a widening 95 00:04:57,680 --> 00:05:01,400 Speaker 4: poverty gap, a widening incombat, a wide health gap. Already, 96 00:05:01,600 --> 00:05:05,480 Speaker 4: COVID has had a much bigger impact than most people realize. 97 00:05:05,920 --> 00:05:09,520 Speaker 4: Not through it COVID directly, but we'd seen a halving 98 00:05:09,600 --> 00:05:12,520 Speaker 4: of extreme poverty in the world, including on the continent 99 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:14,680 Speaker 4: of Africa, in the first two decades of the twenty 100 00:05:14,680 --> 00:05:17,480 Speaker 4: first century. That has stalled in the last three or 101 00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 4: four years, and we've actually seen poverty increase and median 102 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:23,320 Speaker 4: incomes are not going up. We'd seen a harving of 103 00:05:23,400 --> 00:05:27,080 Speaker 4: child mortality, preventable child mortality on the continent of Africa 104 00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:28,440 Speaker 4: and in the world in the. 105 00:05:28,360 --> 00:05:30,640 Speaker 5: First two decades that has stalled. 106 00:05:30,760 --> 00:05:32,880 Speaker 4: Vaccination rates are still not back to where they were 107 00:05:32,880 --> 00:05:37,040 Speaker 4: in twenty nineteen. We've seen massive setbacks in education. This 108 00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,360 Speaker 4: is a very real time human crisis that is then 109 00:05:40,400 --> 00:05:43,479 Speaker 4: exacerbated by the climate crisis. So it's not just that 110 00:05:43,560 --> 00:05:46,120 Speaker 4: the rift will grow, and the rift is real with 111 00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:48,760 Speaker 4: the political resentment from the global South that their needs 112 00:05:48,760 --> 00:05:51,479 Speaker 4: are not being met, but it has very real human 113 00:05:51,520 --> 00:05:55,280 Speaker 4: consequences on the people that need those critical investments and. 114 00:05:55,279 --> 00:05:57,960 Speaker 3: On the contrary, I mean, the Gates Foundation also had 115 00:05:58,040 --> 00:06:01,880 Speaker 3: their annual meetings as this year this week in Dakar 116 00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,200 Speaker 3: and Senegal, and you guys announced a number of investments 117 00:06:05,200 --> 00:06:09,240 Speaker 3: into vaccinations and really increasing vaccinations for this part of 118 00:06:09,240 --> 00:06:12,120 Speaker 3: the world. Can you talk about whether or not we're 119 00:06:12,240 --> 00:06:14,000 Speaker 3: expecting anymore in investments. 120 00:06:14,040 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 2: I think it was about forty million that was announced. 121 00:06:16,120 --> 00:06:19,080 Speaker 4: Right, yes, So to put it in perspective, you know 122 00:06:19,480 --> 00:06:22,239 Speaker 4: our annual budget, we are by far the largest grant 123 00:06:22,279 --> 00:06:24,560 Speaker 4: making foundation in the world. Our budget is around eight 124 00:06:24,600 --> 00:06:27,840 Speaker 4: billion dollars a year. The vast balka that goes into 125 00:06:27,920 --> 00:06:29,600 Speaker 4: health is our biggest ara of investment. 126 00:06:29,960 --> 00:06:32,240 Speaker 5: We also work in agricultural development. 127 00:06:31,880 --> 00:06:36,400 Speaker 4: Financial inclusion related activities, all focused on providing, you know, 128 00:06:36,720 --> 00:06:39,560 Speaker 4: ways to help save lives from preventable deaths and provide 129 00:06:39,600 --> 00:06:43,239 Speaker 4: opportunities for the poorest and most vulnerable. Specifically, the event 130 00:06:43,320 --> 00:06:46,359 Speaker 4: that we had this week in Dakar and Senegal is 131 00:06:46,400 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 4: what we call our Grand Challenges program. That's where we're 132 00:06:49,320 --> 00:06:53,279 Speaker 4: looking at research and development into new tools and opportunities 133 00:06:53,400 --> 00:06:57,600 Speaker 4: that could disproportionately affect the poorest and most vulnerable. And 134 00:06:57,640 --> 00:07:01,080 Speaker 4: there we made two specific sets of additional comitments. One 135 00:07:01,120 --> 00:07:06,039 Speaker 4: was around the expansion of specific technology, which we've helped 136 00:07:06,120 --> 00:07:12,440 Speaker 4: pioneer with a company called Quantum around vaccine mRNA manufacturing. 137 00:07:12,480 --> 00:07:16,640 Speaker 4: The mRNA being the key vaccines that helped address the 138 00:07:16,680 --> 00:07:19,400 Speaker 4: COVID crisis, and we hope and believe in the future 139 00:07:19,720 --> 00:07:24,320 Speaker 4: will be critical for diseases like malaria, tuberculosis, HIV, even 140 00:07:24,360 --> 00:07:27,840 Speaker 4: potentially cancer. And so we had announced some very concrete 141 00:07:27,880 --> 00:07:32,480 Speaker 4: partnerships with both the South African company BioVac, Senegalese company 142 00:07:33,040 --> 00:07:36,040 Speaker 4: the Institute Paste da Car and we're looking for other 143 00:07:36,080 --> 00:07:38,240 Speaker 4: African countries where we'll do that. And then we had 144 00:07:38,240 --> 00:07:42,320 Speaker 4: a second set of investments really looking at artificial intelligence. 145 00:07:42,800 --> 00:07:45,480 Speaker 4: And there's so much discussion about AI generally, but there's 146 00:07:45,520 --> 00:07:48,800 Speaker 4: not a lot looking at the potential application of AI 147 00:07:48,960 --> 00:07:52,960 Speaker 4: to really provide services, enhanced services for the poorers. 148 00:07:53,000 --> 00:07:53,760 Speaker 5: And so for. 149 00:07:53,680 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 4: Example, we have a handheld device which you can use 150 00:07:57,560 --> 00:08:00,280 Speaker 4: a cell phone, which uses an AI algori of them 151 00:08:00,480 --> 00:08:03,800 Speaker 4: can actually help in low resource health settings get the 152 00:08:03,880 --> 00:08:05,840 Speaker 4: gestational age of a baby. It's the equivalent of an 153 00:08:05,880 --> 00:08:10,360 Speaker 4: ultrasound that has an amazing impact in terms of reducing 154 00:08:10,400 --> 00:08:15,320 Speaker 4: preventable maternal and child mortality. There are new tools in education, healthcare, 155 00:08:15,760 --> 00:08:17,720 Speaker 4: other areas, and so those with the two sets of 156 00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:20,800 Speaker 4: enviouncement that they're complementary. We need the research and development 157 00:08:20,880 --> 00:08:23,200 Speaker 4: investments that are going to be building the tools for 158 00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:26,440 Speaker 4: the future. And then it's the doubling down on the 159 00:08:26,440 --> 00:08:30,680 Speaker 4: tools that we have already, the vaccines, the basic health services, 160 00:08:30,720 --> 00:08:33,920 Speaker 4: the digital financial infrastructure that can help people. 161 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:36,280 Speaker 3: Now, well, when you mentioned the two companies where the 162 00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:38,679 Speaker 3: I think it's five million going to each, where are 163 00:08:38,679 --> 00:08:40,439 Speaker 3: the rest of those funds going to be allocated? 164 00:08:40,720 --> 00:08:42,840 Speaker 2: Are you still looking for partners across the continent. 165 00:08:43,320 --> 00:08:46,240 Speaker 5: Yes, so we're in discussions with a number of countries. 166 00:08:46,320 --> 00:08:49,360 Speaker 4: We convened a number of African countries recently at the 167 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:50,440 Speaker 4: UN General Assembly. 168 00:08:51,160 --> 00:08:52,400 Speaker 5: This is also technology. 169 00:08:52,480 --> 00:08:55,360 Speaker 4: While we're focusing these resources on Africa, this is a 170 00:08:55,400 --> 00:08:56,360 Speaker 4: public good for the world. 171 00:08:56,360 --> 00:08:59,960 Speaker 5: We've been working with countries like Brazil or in the need. 172 00:09:00,080 --> 00:09:02,120 Speaker 5: You're also looking at how you can use the technology. 173 00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:05,280 Speaker 4: And by the way, this is not just putting mRNA 174 00:09:05,360 --> 00:09:07,440 Speaker 4: technology for the sake of it. This is a cheaper, 175 00:09:07,480 --> 00:09:10,840 Speaker 4: more effective, more reliable version than what we've seen for 176 00:09:10,880 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 4: the COVID vaccines. And again, our investments are helping me 177 00:09:15,400 --> 00:09:17,440 Speaker 4: create that as a public good for the continent. 178 00:09:17,559 --> 00:09:19,520 Speaker 3: And how do you see that aiding in I think 179 00:09:19,760 --> 00:09:21,760 Speaker 3: it was Bill Gates this week who said it's these 180 00:09:21,800 --> 00:09:24,280 Speaker 3: investments are the first step right in sort of achieving 181 00:09:24,320 --> 00:09:24,959 Speaker 3: health equity. 182 00:09:25,320 --> 00:09:27,439 Speaker 2: What do you see as the next step? 183 00:09:27,480 --> 00:09:30,640 Speaker 3: Because there still is a billions of dollar health equity 184 00:09:30,679 --> 00:09:31,480 Speaker 3: gap in Africa. 185 00:09:31,600 --> 00:09:33,760 Speaker 4: Yes, so will you need a combination across all that 186 00:09:33,880 --> 00:09:39,160 Speaker 4: you need? First, African countries themselves need to keep prioritizing 187 00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:42,320 Speaker 4: health and education. We combine the two as human capital 188 00:09:42,320 --> 00:09:44,280 Speaker 4: investments as core priorities, which. 189 00:09:44,120 --> 00:09:44,760 Speaker 5: Many of them are. 190 00:09:44,760 --> 00:09:48,880 Speaker 4: But that's challenging in the constrained financial circumstances we talked about. 191 00:09:48,960 --> 00:09:52,880 Speaker 4: Without debt relief and other tools, we need institutions like 192 00:09:52,960 --> 00:09:57,120 Speaker 4: the World Bank really doubling down on its own support 193 00:09:57,200 --> 00:10:01,720 Speaker 4: and it was recently convening in Tanzania around human capital, 194 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:04,120 Speaker 4: which the Gates Foundation participated in that the Bank was 195 00:10:04,200 --> 00:10:07,000 Speaker 4: leading around how they can help generate and do that. 196 00:10:07,120 --> 00:10:09,840 Speaker 4: And so it's making sure that those pools of resources 197 00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:13,040 Speaker 4: that the Bank generates and that we're hoping we'll unlock 198 00:10:13,120 --> 00:10:17,000 Speaker 4: through MDB reform both expand we need that pie to 199 00:10:17,040 --> 00:10:20,520 Speaker 4: expand and then remain prioritized on some of those core 200 00:10:20,559 --> 00:10:23,400 Speaker 4: investments in health and development. And then there are other 201 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:27,640 Speaker 4: partners like the World Health Organization, like the GAVI Vaccine Alliance, 202 00:10:27,679 --> 00:10:30,840 Speaker 4: the Global Fund to Fight AIDS, TB and malaria. We're 203 00:10:30,880 --> 00:10:33,800 Speaker 4: significant funders in all of those, but those need to 204 00:10:33,840 --> 00:10:35,720 Speaker 4: be able to continue to do their work and then 205 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:39,280 Speaker 4: we'll see a repeat, we hope, of those massive reductions 206 00:10:39,320 --> 00:10:41,680 Speaker 4: in mortality that we had in the first two decades 207 00:10:41,679 --> 00:10:44,240 Speaker 4: of the twenty first century that have stalled this decade. 208 00:10:44,360 --> 00:10:46,480 Speaker 2: Optimistic about the end of this week seeing some of 209 00:10:46,520 --> 00:10:47,840 Speaker 2: those Well. 210 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:51,600 Speaker 4: We're always optimistic. That's our sort of calling card at 211 00:10:51,600 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 4: the Gates Foundation. We believe things can be done because 212 00:10:54,040 --> 00:10:56,200 Speaker 4: they have been done in the past. We believe progress 213 00:10:56,240 --> 00:10:59,839 Speaker 4: can be accelerated. We believe the political will is there 214 00:11:00,280 --> 00:11:03,760 Speaker 4: that as always, the proof, as I wrote in my article, 215 00:11:03,880 --> 00:11:07,880 Speaker 4: is got to be in actually providing the resources, having 216 00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:10,240 Speaker 4: people put their money where their mouth is and then 217 00:11:10,320 --> 00:11:13,920 Speaker 4: seeing it implemented. So yes, I'm hopeful this week will 218 00:11:13,920 --> 00:11:17,480 Speaker 4: be an important step and we'll see some successful investments 219 00:11:17,480 --> 00:11:19,320 Speaker 4: and announcements. But this has got to be part of 220 00:11:19,320 --> 00:11:22,480 Speaker 4: a through line that goes through the climate discussions, that 221 00:11:22,640 --> 00:11:24,760 Speaker 4: goes through next year, because this is not a one 222 00:11:24,800 --> 00:11:28,400 Speaker 4: off set of steps. This is a multi year poly 223 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,720 Speaker 4: crisis that we're in the middle of, and it's going 224 00:11:30,760 --> 00:11:33,240 Speaker 4: to take a multi year set of commitments in investments 225 00:11:33,240 --> 00:11:35,360 Speaker 4: by all of us if we're going to get out 226 00:11:35,360 --> 00:11:37,440 Speaker 4: of it and create the kind of opportunities for the 227 00:11:37,480 --> 00:11:38,520 Speaker 4: future that we want. 228 00:11:38,679 --> 00:11:44,359 Speaker 1: That's Gates Foundation CEO Mark Susman speaking with Bloomberg's Jennifer Sabasaga. 229 00:11:44,840 --> 00:11:48,400 Speaker 1: Subscribe to the Bloomberg Talks podcast now to hear more 230 00:11:48,440 --> 00:11:52,400 Speaker 1: conversations like this one.
