Narrative

Full Description

Project narrative

In 2016, the Chinese Government pledged to contribute $200 million to the United Nations over a ten year period. The United Nations Peace and Development Trust Fund (UNPDF) was established to channel these earmarked funds to specific projects in coordination with the UN. The UNPDF is divided into two sub-funds: The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Sub-Fund and The Secretary-General's Peace and Security Sub-Fund. In 2018, $1,500,000 of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development Sub-Fund was dedicated to encouraging South-South cooperation to achieve the Sustainable Development Goal 7 (SDG7). The program ran from February 2018 to September 2021.
