Financing for Development

Program Overview

The efforts in Financing for Development have grown considerably since 2002′s international conference in Monterrey, Mexico. UNANIMA has supported the NGO Committee on Financing for Development since its genesis. We promote innovative forms of financing as able supplements to overseas development assistance, trade, and the reform of international financial institutions such as the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank.

Financing for Development

Without money and resources it is difficult to move forward any projects or programmes.  UNANIMA has been working with many other NGOs to promote innovative sources of financing for development. On 10-11 March 2011 at the UN, we will participate in the spring meeting between the International Monetary Fund, the World Bank and the United Nations for dialogue on various topics to promote better financial policy.
