The SDG Fund works in 18 countries to pilot integrated approaches to sustainable development in 3 sectoral areas: inclusive economic growth for poverty eradication, food security and nutrition and water and sanitation. Equally important, all our programmes embed 3 cross-cutting issues: sustainability, gender equality and public-private partnerships. All these programmes were chosen through a selection process including the review by thematic and development independent experts.
