The UN Capital Development Fund (UNCDF) assists developing countries in the development of their economies by supplementing existing sources of capital assistance by means of grants, loans and guarantees, first and foremost for the least developed among the developing countries.
As a Flagship Catalytic Blended Financing platform of the UN, UNCDF utilizes its unique capability to crowd-in finance for the scaling of development impact where the needs are greatest—a capability rooted in UNCDF’s unique investment mandate—to support the achievement of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and the realization of the Doha Programme of Action for the least developed countries, 2022–2031.
Five Priority Areas
- inclusive digital economies
- local transformative finance
- women's economic empowerment

- sustainable food systems financing
L’année 2023 a été marquée par la présentation d’un nouvel outil, le tableau de bord de l’économie numérique inclusive (IDES), permettant d’affiner les politiques publiques en faveur des populations les plus défavorisées. Les acteurs gabonais ont, par ailleurs, défini une feuille de route afin d’appuyer le développement de la finance numérique. Plusieurs autres chantiers sont ouverts en 2024.
