What is the role of the United Nations Development Programme?
UNDP has been appointed as the Fund Manager (Administrative Agent) for the Peacebuilding Fund, exercised by its Multi-Donor Trust Fund (MDTF) Office, which includes all fiduciary responsibilities, such as the receipt of donor contributions and the disbursement of funds, and the fulfilment of reporting requirements. UNDP can also serve as a recipient, just like other UN Organizations, and receive PBF funding for the implementation of projects in the countries concerned through its country offices.
