The United Nations centre of expertise on pooled funding
The Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office (MPTFO) provides fund design and administration services to UN entities, national governments, and other partners.
These integrated ‘Administrative Agent’ (AA) services are provided from fund inception to closure, with the MPTFO in an impartial and independent role, separate from implementing entities, ensuring proper fiduciary checks and balances.
The underlying premise of pooled funding is the recognition that some challenges cannot be overcome by individual action, and that sustainable development – and the SDGs – will only be achieved when we work together.
The MPTF Office carefully curates a fund portfolio that cover a broad range of thematic categories. From humanitarian, peace and transition to climate action or development, funds are used to implement initiatives that accelerate SDG progress, generating results on local, regional, global scales.

Across Africa, the Middle East and, most recently, Latin America and the Caribbean, hundreds of UN colleagues have come together to rethink how the system works —and learn— as one.
The educational play “Echo of Silence”, developed within the project “Stage for the Prevention of Illegal Firearms Possession”, has captured the attention of young people across Tuzla Canton, encouraging dialogue on important social topics such as peer violence, mental health, and the risks associated with irresponsible and illegal firearm possession.
The Central Africa Forest Initiative (CAFI) is the biggest fund within the climate and environment portfolio of the MPTFO. Established in 2015 during the 70th session of the UN General Assembly (UNGA70) , CAFI supports investments and reforms to address forest loss and fight poverty in the high-forest cover countries of Central Africa and the Congo River Basin.
