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

Sierra Leone

Sierra Leone continues to address substantial infrastructure deficits in energy, transport and water systems, which constrain productivity and investment. Rehabilitation of roads, expansion of electricity access and port improvements aim to support mining, agriculture and trade. However, fiscal constraints and governance challenges affect implementation capacity. Strengthening regulatory frameworks and improving public financial management are central to maximising the development impact of infrastructure financing.
