Private Finance for the SDGs
UNDP’s Private Finance for the SDGs leverages, scales, and aligns private sector investments to help achieve the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030. We address the critical need for sustainable finance, aiming to transform the global financial architecture and bridge the substantial SDG financing gap. By ensuring that financial decisions are informed by the SDGs, we support impactful investments that prioritise people and the planet.
