(...)The UN Foundation makes it easy to engage in the work of the UN. As a platform for partnering with the UN, we help corporations, foundations, governments, and individuals make a difference in the important work the UN does across a broad range of issues. Our role in these partnerships varies—from catalyst to convener, advocate to grantmaker, fiduciary to fundraising ally—but in each case, we are able to achieve an outcome that is greater than what any single actor would have accomplished working alone. These efforts are conducted in close coordination with the United Nations Fund for International Partnerships (UNFIP), our strategic counterpoint within the UN system.(...).
