How is the SDG-F managed?

A Steering Committee, represented at the highest level by UNDP and the Government of Spain, meets at least once per year and provides overall guidance and strategic direction. UNDP’s Multi Partner Trust Fund Office (http://mptf.undp.org/) is entrusted with the administration of the Fund as Administrative Agent. The UNDP/SDG-F Secretariat, a small, specialized and technical team sitting on UNDP’s Bureau of External Relations and Advocacy, will ensure that the decisions of the Steering Committee are applied and followed up and will coordinate the programmatic, advocacy, evaluation and knowledge management aspects of the SDG-F. At country level, joint programmes should establish appropriate governance mechanisms that represent the interests of the national government.
