Impact
Selected proposals will lead to the implementation of transformative Joint Programmes, under the leadership of Resident Coordinators. In doing so the Fund is committed to forge paths and partnerships that unlock public and private capital for the SDGs at scale.
The Joint SDG Fund is providing proof of concept of the power of integrated approaches to meet complex development challenges. Relying on the joint work of diverse stakeholders under the leadership of UN Resident Coordinators, these initiatives are creating models for systemic change that can be scaled and replicated globally.
- Systems thinking: Approaching SDGs as interconnected transitions rather than isolated targets, recognizing how challenges overlap and require holistic solutions that work across traditional sector boundaries.
- Integrated policy design: Creating coherent regulatory frameworks that address multiple SDGs simultaneously through coordinated approaches across government ministries and levels.
- Catalytic financing: Leveraging initial investments that mobilises additional public and private resources through innovative financing mechanisms and partnerships.
- Strategic partnerships: Engaging diverse stakeholders across governments, private sector, civil society, and international financial institutions.
- Knowledge sharing: Facilitating learning for scaling up of successful interventions.
