As the lead United Nations agency on international development, UNDP works in 170 countries and territories to eradicate poverty and reduce inequality. We help countries develop policies, leadership skills, partnerships and institutional capabilities to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals. UNDP’s work is guided by four strategic objectives that together define our contribution to human development: expanding prosperity for all, strengthening effective governance, safeguarding a healthy planet and building crisis resilience.

These objectives are enabled by three accelerators that drive transformative impact across our portfolio: digital and AI innovation, gender equality and sustainable finance. Through this integrated approach, UNDP supports countries to deliver tangible improvements in people’s lives and to advance sustainable development at scale.

UNDP, through its Sustainable Finance Hub (SFH) ((Usted puede enviar una solicitud o contactar con nosotros por email usando el Buzón de Solicitud online de abajo)), supports partners in promoting financing for the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). As an accelerator of the UNDP Strategic Plan, sustainable finance strengthens countries’ ability to mobilize, align and deploy finance at scale for national priorities. UNDP supports international and country level policy reform as a catalyst for system-wide change, stronger policy environments, better-functioning markets and more coherent financing strategies for sustainable development.

SFH work is delivered through three interconnected portfolios:
1) Public Finance for the SDGs;
2) Private Finance for the SDGs; and
3) Global & Country Financing Policy Frameworks.

The SFH Public Finance for SDGs (PF4

SDGs) portfolio supports governments to strengthen public finance systems for sustainable development. Operating across 99+ countries with a portfolio exceeding $200 million, PF4

SDGs provides integrated technical assistance across three core pillars: (1) Fiscal Policy Coherence, (2) Tax Systems for Sustainable Development, and (3) Public Expenditure Management. The portfolio works with Ministries of Finance, Planning, and line ministries to align fiscal policies, tax systems, and public expenditure with national development priorities and the 2030 Agenda.

As a core part of the Public Finance for SDGs Portfolio, the Tax Inspectors Without Borders (TIWB) is a joint initiative of UNDP and Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), operating under the PF4

SDGs Tax Systems pillar with regional hubs in Pretoria, Bangkok, Istanbul, Panama, and Amman.

TIWB strengthens tax audit capacity in developing countries through real-time, hands‑on technical assistance, where international experts work alongside local officials on live audit cases. Since its launch in 2015, TIWB has become a flagship program for domestic resource mobilization and international tax cooperation, supporting over 80 jurisdictions and mobilizing USD 2.4 billion in additional revenues. Its scope spans transfer pricing, tax crime investigations, exchange of information, tax treaty negotiations, and emerging areas like digital economy taxation.

TIWB exemplifies high‑impact, cost-effective assistance, delivering strong returns, and advancing the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
