The UNDP Funding Windows were launched in 2016 to mobilize and align thematic funding with UNDP’s Strategic Plan. By pooling resources from multiple funding partners, the Funding Windows enable UNDP to invest in priority activities that accelerate action on the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development. Their flexible structure facilitates long-term planning and allows UNDP to pilot and scale up interventions that respond to national priorities and advance the global fight against poverty, inequality and climate change.
