World Bank Group Launches New Multi-Donor Fund
On October 18, 2018, the World Bank Group launched the Partnership Fund for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG Fund) in support of global efforts to meet the SDGs.
Sweden is the first partner to help launch the SDG Fund with an initial contribution of USD 7 million. The idea of the SDG Fund grew from initial collaborations between Sweden and the World Bank Group on “SDG Financing” and “SDG Trajectories”. Through these initiatives, a shared vision
developed between Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida) and the Bank Group that many more catalytic innovations could be developed through continued collaboration.
