India-UN Development Partnership Fund

Funding background

Established in 2017, the $150 million India-UN Development Partnership Fund is supported and led by the Government of India and implemented in collaboration with the United Nations system.

Eligibility

National government / multi-country government level requests for funding.

Financing

United Nations agencies implement the Fund projects in close collaboration with partnering Governments.

Applying

The vast majority of India-UN Fund projects are
implemented at the country level, since they
respond to requests by national governments.
The Fund also supports multi-country projects to
address transboundary challenges, including, for
example, to enhance climate resilience capacities in
seven Pacific Island States, making implementation
more impactful through the broader regional reach.
