Strong partnerships deliver real results. UNIDO’s Third Regional Emerging Donors Conference shows how cooperation is moving beyond dialogue to action – turning political commitments into concrete initiatives on the ground.
From green industrial recovery in Ukraine to food security in Africa and innovation and digitalization in the Western Balkans, this platform of nine emerging EU donor countries is delivering impact. It is about investment, but also about sharing technology and expertise based on countries’ own experiences of economic transformation – expertise that is extremely valuable for developing countries who are looking for concrete solutions for sustainable and resilient growth.
The focus now is on scaling up our joint successes, engaging more partners, including from the private sector, and expanding impact.
