Initiatives

We invest early in action-oriented ideas and give them a chance to take root, thrive and scale up. We were one of the first to pioneer innovative public-private partnerships. Today we support initiatives that work with the UN and partners to achieve impact at scale on the SDGs, climate change, and major collective challenges. We are home to a series of successful organizations and initiatives, either created or hosted by us, that have their own identity but that work as part of the UN Foundation family.


We Support Partnerships for Scaled Impact

We facilitate business solutions

We work with the UN and business innovators to help reach the SDGs, solve climate change, and tackle global problems, both through our initiatives and by supporting efforts to connect global businesses directly to the UN through the Global Compact.
