About the programmes

The challenge of achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG) by 2030 is more complex than just mobilising the necessary funds. Results in the three dimensions of sustainable development (social, environmental and economic) will require effective governance and a re-orientation of how public and private actors interact. NIR designs and implements programmes in support of this shift.
