UNFPA continued in 2018 to actively work with sister agencies and take part in multi-stakeholder action that capitalizes on the consolidated strengths of UN entities under UN Development System pooled funding mechanisms, while leveraging further commitments from a broader range of stakeholders.
In 2008, UNFPA started to perform as an Administrative Agent (AA) for pass-through fund management. UNFPA’s engagement as an AA is based on demand in joint programmes (JP) and in multi-donor trust funds (MDTF) where we are also participating agencies as well and are actively engaged in the design of the pass-through funds. These JPs cover areas critical to UNFPA’s mandate, the three zeros – zero maternal death, zero unmet need for family planning and zero violence against women, including harmful traditional practices for adolescent and youth.
