    Bridging the linguistic gap in innovative financing. Via YouTube.

    New and innovative financing mechanisms are helping to bridge the $2.5 trillion financing gap in international development. But despite all these tools, unlocking new capital is easier said than done.

    The thing is, there’s not only a cultural divide between the global development and finance communities, but there's also a linguistic gap.

    Watch this video to find out more.

    The Maternity Matters series is sponsored by MSD for Mothers, MSD’s $500 million initiative to help create a world where no woman has to die giving life. The content of this article is the responsibility of the author(s) and does not necessarily represent the official views of MSD. MSD for Mothers is an initiative of Merck & Co., Inc.
