Financing Solutions for Sustainable Development [online platform]

  • Published on January 30, 2018
The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and its partners meet with significant demand for guidance on identifying and operationalizing financing solutions across many sectors and thematic areas. For example, the Biodiversity Finance Initiative (BIOFIN) is serving 30 countries to support the financing of national biodiversity strategies. The Enhanced Integrated Framework (EIF) is revising the role it has played in catalysing Aid for Trade in Least Developed Countries. The Green Climate Fund (GCF) is pushing the readiness frontier for climate finance. This microsite is a response to our partners' requests for guidance on choosing and designing the appropriate financing solutions to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The online platform is visited by 4-5,000 unique visitors a month and has been used to inform country programming and planning sessions in over 35 countries. Tourism is one of the sector through which the different financing solutions are tagged. Up to January 2018 over 22 reviews were concluded. The impact of the platform is best understood if combined with the reading The Financing The 2030 Agenda: Handbook for UNDP Country Offices [upcoming 2018].
