The Joint SDG Fund stands as the United Nation’s premier innovative funding mechanism, strategically designed to catalyze profound policy transformations and ignite the strategic investments essential for realigning the world on course to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals as stated in the United Nations Secretary-General's Funding Compact 2.0.

“The Joint SDG Fund – a catalyst of cutting-edge solutions that accelerate sustainable development. The Fund crowds in resources for SDG action.  But is more than a financing mechanism. It embodies a new way of thinking, recognizing the interconnectedness of our goals and uniting diverse stakeholders in a coordinated effort.” 

Amina J. Mohammed, United Nations Deputy Secretary-General. UN General Assembly 2024

2022 Annual Report

As the United Nations flagship global fund, the Joint SDG Fund operates on a two-fold strategic mandate to supercharge the United Nations Development System (UNDS) to be fit for purpose, and, in turn, to catalyse systemic transitions at the country level in areas of integrated policy and financing to accelerate the SDGs.
