To shine a light on the different INFF-driven innovations emerging from the African continent, UNDP hosted an event on the side-lines of the 2021 African Economic Conference. The event featured presentations from the governments of Nigeria, Cabo Verde and Tanzania as well as two subject matter experts. The country presentations provided rich examples of African efforts and achievements in developing more integrated, holistic approaches to financing both the SDGs and national development plans. 

Marcos Neto, Director of the Finance Sector Hub at UNDP, kicked off the event, providing an overview of INFFs – the added value of the approach and progress in the region. He also presented the results of the latest INFF survey, which shed light on the technical assistance needs of the region.
