To support the Government of Indonesia’s commitment in strengthening the blue economy ecosystem, UNDP in partnership with the Coordinating Ministry for Maritime Affairs & Investments and the Asian Development Bank launched a six-month Blue Finance Accelerator (BFA) programme in August 2022.
The BFA takes an innovative, multi-stakeholder approach through a dual capacity-building track for private enterprises (Startups & SMEs) and Government Units (Central & Local Government) in blue sectors, to catalyze multi-sector partnerships and enable private-public capital to strengthen the blue economy chain.
UNDP has played an important role in enhancing SDG impact capacity by providing Impact Measurement and Management (IMM) training, preparing these businesses for SDG investments, and contributing to the accelerated progress towards achieving the SDGs.
The handbook highlights the background to the creation of the program, the program description and journey, and the impact stories from BFA alumni. Access the handbook for further insights.
