Our vision is to build a global community of support to fill the SDG Financing and Knowledge Gap, facilitate policy development to scale up blended finance solutions in developing countries, and to promote South-South collaboration.

“Indonesia is committed to promoting blended finance initiatives to attract private investment for sustainable development projects, particularly through the G20 Bali Global Blended Finance Alliance. This alliance aims to scale blended finance for developing countries, modernize the development finance system, and foster South-South cooperation to support climate action and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)”
