      The United Nations, as the only global institution mandated to address economic and 
      social challenges where developing countries have an equal say, is the space to call for a systemic transformation of the global financial architecture. This is where the UN Financing for Development (FfD) process comes in – as a space to advance on the systemic changes we urgently need to see.

The Complete Toolkit: An Introductory Guide to FfD

We are excited to share the compilation of thematic and regional briefs on Financing for Development. These documents were developed based on collective work by the Civil Society FfD (Financing for Development) Mechanism experts. The briefs were created as a fundamental entry point into the dynamic and complex realm of Financing for Development and its diverse thematic areas as mandated by the Addis Agenda.

With their concise yet informative nature, these briefs aim to lay the groundwork for further engagement, enabling individuals and collectives to delve deeper into the intricacies of the Financing for Development world. Whether you are a newcomer or a seasoned professional, the briefs are designed to facilitate navigation through the complexities of the financing for development process, which can sometimes appear excessively technical. By distilling complex concepts into easily understandable information and linking the issues with our every-day realities, these briefs provide a valuable resource for individuals and collectives seeking to navigate this specialized domain. They serve as a guiding compass, helping to demystify the technicalities and empower readers with the knowledge and understanding necessary to engage and advocate effectively in the financing for development process.

By guiding readers through the UN Financing for Development world, the complete toolkit shines a light onto how shaping decision-making on global economic governance at the UN has the potential to transform our global economic systems to reduce inequalities within and between countries and make them work for people and the planet.
