The Funding Compact sets out an ambitious plan of shared action by Member States and the United Nations Sustainable Development Group to ensure predictable and flexible funding for United Nations development activities.
It is a shared responsibility of Member States and the UN development system, and contains interdependent and mutually reinforcing actions for each. Flexible funding is a necessary enabler of an effective UN development system, and an effective UN development system itself serves as an incentive for providing better quality funding. The commitments in the Compact call for implementation by Member States and UN entities, both individually and collectively.
It represents a non-binding instrument for voluntary action by individual Member States, other cooperation partners, and entities of the UN development system.
