Brief Description

The joint programme titled 'Strengthening monitoring and financing capacity to accelerate the implementation of the SDGs and national priorities' aims to enhance Papua New Guinea's development by improving monitoring systems, securing adequate financing for national priorities, and fostering partnerships among stakeholders to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

The programme strengthens monitoring and financing capacity to implement the SDGs and national priorities in Papua New Guinea. It establishes a results-based management framework for the Medium-Term Development Plan IV (MTDP IV), ensuring accountability and effective resource allocation while monitoring key performance indicators through an online platform. The initiative mobilizes resources for sustainable economic transition, particularly focusing on climate change and biodiversity, and fosters partnerships among government, civil society, and the private sector. The project reaches the entire population, enhancing climate resilience and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
