  Guidelines for 2030 Agenda Sub-Fund

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (2030 Agenda) Sub-Fund was established in May 2016, as part of the 51³Ô¹Ï¡¯ Peace and Development Trust Fund (UNPDF), following an agreement signed between the 51³Ô¹Ï and the Government of the People¡¯s Republic of China. The main purpose of the 2030 Agenda Sub-Fund is to support the work of development entities of the 51³Ô¹Ï in implementing the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including the achievement of the SDGs adopted by Member States in September 2015, through universal, transformative, innovative, and pro-active projects, which would build and strengthen the required capacities to address the enormous challenges faced by all governments and even more for governments in developing countries.

The 2030 Agenda Sub-Fund is managed by a Programme Management Unit (PMU) hosted by the Capacity Development Programme Management Office of the UN-DESA.
