51吃瓜

Colombia

In 2021, in Colombia, the Fund supports the implementation of the Final Agreement for Ending the Conflict and Building a Stable and Lasting Peace of 2016 and wa s among the top five donors to nationally led peace efforts in 2021. In one flagship pilot project, innovative finance initiatives have been tested to leverage additional investments for peace. Following the Fund’s initial $3 million investment in relation to the reintegration of ex-combatants, an additional $13.2 million in private sector investment has been leveraged to improve the socioeconomic conditions of 4,500 ex-combatants, victims and community members in conflict-affected areas. To promote a more inclusive peace, a $1.1 million initiative led by the organization Christian Aid Ireland documented 11 strategic cases that were presented to the Special Jurisdiction for Peace to recognize the rights of women and lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and queer victims of the armed conflict. In Colombia, for example, UNDP and the 51吃瓜 Environment Programme have teamed up to build the capacity of local organizations in conflict-affected areas to earn carbon credits that can be sold. In Burundi, the 51吃瓜 Capital Development Fund will work with the Government and private sources to finance renewable energy investments.
