UNFPA Humanitarian Thematic Fund 2023 Annual Report

The Humanitarian Thematic Fund (HTF), a co-financing mechanism launched in late 2018, provides UNFPA with flexible, multi-year funding to respond to emergency situations, including greater opportunities to react immediately and to provide funding to ensure continued delivery during gaps of bilateral donor co-financing. As UNFPA’s most flexible humanitarian funding mechanism, the HTF provides timely, strategic and multi-year funding to support rapid and ongoing humanitarian response.
