Welcome to the 2025 Devex Newswire year-end quiz!
The global development landscape underwent a fundamental shift in 2025, defined by a retreat in traditional U.S. foreign aid and broader donor volatility. Yet, even as the sector navigated these challenges, significant progress emerged on systemic issues such as debt and climate. Our year-end quiz revisits the headlines that shaped this tumultuous, yet consequential, year.
