The #UN and UN Development are the embodiment of the belief in cooperation, the belief in our shared efforts to make lives better. Development works. #UNDPEB
With an initial $10.3M investment, UN Development’s Sustainable Finance Hub has helped unlock $867B+ in public & private funding since 2022. ✅ $16B leveraged & $32B aligned via #INFF ✅ $430B in budgets & debt for sustainability ✅ $380B private capital steered towards SDGs #UNDPEB
I sat down with Simon Mundy from the Financial Times to discuss the global cuts to development and aid, and how we can reignite the international cooperation that brought us the Paris Agreement, #SDGs, and a strong #UN. My conversation ⬇️ bit.ly/4dUjwZd
As I close this chapter, I speak with host Nadira Hira about my time leading UN Development for the past 8 years. I believe that development is the doorway of opportunity for people to lead lives of their choosing. My full interview: go.undp.org/U2Q
Thank you to Achim Steiner for your leadership and friendship. It's been a privilege to work alongside you in UN Development for the last 8 years of your time as Administrator. I wish you all the best in your next endeavour.
My 1st day as Acting Administrator UN Development. Together with the Executive Group, we are focused on delivering on the current Strategic Plan, securing #UNDPEB approval of the new one & strategically, effectively managing budget plans & reductions w/ colleagues and partners for #SDGs.
The world has $450 trillion of global wealth, yet the #SDGs face an annual $4.3 trillion funding gap. #FFD4 starts Monday in Spain where UN Development will join decision-makers to close the gap & connect the capital with the people and places who need it most. go.undp.org/Udf
