    Background


    UNDP is the knowledge frontier organization for sustainable development in the UN Development System and serves as the integrator for collective action to realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).


    The UNDP Sustainable Finance Hub (SFH) brings together UNDP's financial expertise to harness public and private capital for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)- supporting governments, investors and businesses in reaching climate, social impact and sustainability targets.

    Its work drives systemic change towards a sustainable financial architecture that benefits people and the planet.


    Through the SFH, UNDP has been increasing its engagement in global financial and economic policy making through the work carried out in regulatory and market-based networks and different forums (I.e., G7, G20, UN's FfD process, etc.).

    UNDP has been assisting the G20 Presidencies in the implementation of their G20 priorities, including by providing the Secretariat of the G20 Sustainable Finance Working Group since 2021 and housing and convening the implementation mechanism for the G20 Sustainable Finance Technical Assistance Action Plan (TAAP).

    The TAAP is a key initiative endorsed by the G20 leaders at the New Delhi Summit 2023 to enhance capacity building, raise awareness for sustainable finance, and strengthen efforts towards implementing the G20 Sustainable Finance Working Group (SFWG) Transition Finance Framework.


    The UNDP is seeking interns to conduct research supporting the implementation of the G20 Technical Assistance Action Plan implementation as well as other G20 SFWG duties.
