grant Background
About the Funding Agency
The UN Capital Development Fund makes public and private finance work for the poor in the world’s 47 least developed countries (LDCs).
With its capital mandate and instruments, UNCDF offers “last mile” finance models that unlock public and private resources, especially at the domestic level, to reduce poverty and support local economic development.
UNCDF’s financing models work through two channels: financial inclusion that expands the opportunities for indivi duals, households, and small businesses to participate in the local economy, providing them with the tools they need to climb out of poverty and manage their financial lives; and localized investments that show how fiscal decentralization, innovative municipal finance, and structured project finance can drive public and private funding that underpins local economic expansion and sustainable development.

Locations
Papua New Guinea
Papua New Guinea (PNG) is a resource-rich lower-middle-income country whose economy is heavily dependent on extractive industries, particularly liquefied natural gas, mining and petroleum. While resource exports generate substantial revenues, growth has been uneven and infrastructure deficits remain significant. Development strategies emphasise improving transport and energy infrastructure, strengthening governance and expanding agricultural productivity to support inclusive growth. Fiscal pressures, law-and-order concerns and vulnerability to commodity price fluctuations present ongoing challenges. Enhancing human capital and institutional capacity is critical to translating resource wealth into broad-based development outcomes.
