The United Nations Department of Economic Affairs (DESA), the Economic Commission for Africa (ECA), United Nations Development Programme (UNDP), and the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) organized a regional training workshop on integrated national financing frameworks (INFF) on 24-26 August 2021. The event facilitated creating a knowledge-sharing and learning space for African countries to share their experiences of integrated national financing frameworks and best practices in that area. The knowledge gained would support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals and the aspirations, goals and targets of Agenda 2063 of the African Union.
The workshop was tailored to the needs of the broader target audience of African countries. The event was delivered online over three half days and included an in-depth analysis of integrated national financing frameworks, including country cases and practical experiences. The event generated a discussion on the mobilization of resources in support of efforts to build back better and on how countries can build on their practical experiences to address pressing regional and country-level challenges, including debt sustainability, illicit financial flows, the formulation of budgets that support development, economic governance, and the leapfrogging opportunities of the so-called fourth industrial revolution.
The workshop aimed at strengthening the knowledge of government officials and other stakeholders of integrated national financing frameworks.
