    Money Matters: What Gates spends on gender

    In this week's edition: We look at the numbers behind ADB’s top contractors, the Gates Foundation and its gender equality funding, Sudan’s grim reality, and the story behind a U.N.-funded program that disappeared.

    By Omar Mohammed // 15 May 2023

    Over the past years, the data team at Devex has been steadily tracking down where the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation spends its money, and this week brings you the latest installment, where we look back over two decades at the foundation’s spending on gender equality.

    We also look at the Asian Development Bank’s funding for the last five years, and give you USAID’s verdict on the state of funding in Sudan. Short answer: The picture isn’t pretty.
