The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the world’s leading authority on the environment, working with all of society across 193 countries to protect and restore human and planetary health. But action at scale depends on funding, and UNEP relies on voluntary contributions for more than 95 per cent of its work. This includes contributions to UNEP’s core fund, the Environment Fund; to the three UNEP Planetary Funds for climate, nature and pollution; and earmarked contributions that provide direct support to specific projects.
Flexible and sustained funding ensures UNEP can keep advancing critical priorities, and every contribution helps accelerate progress toward a cleaner, safer and more sustainable future for all.
