- Since end of last year, the ILO through CO-Suva is part of two large-scale Joint UN Programmes funded by the SDG fund, which also include activities for the informal economy. In one of them, the ILO is the lead agency. As part of these Programmes, we work across boundaries of our agencies.

- title:
- Recommendation #1 (addressed to all relevant partner UN agencies): Address the challenges holistically faced by the informal economy. Project finance and technology need to be an integral part of the support structure. This is going to require the agencies to work across their boundaries for a common goal of helping the informal economy. Technical specialized agencies can bring in expertise and innovation while financing institutions could consider establishing a revolving fund to finance viable projects proposed by the informal economy. The effort should be complementary in directly addressing challenges faced by the informal economy such as access to finance and technology; economic empowerment of youth; gender equality and social inclusion; governance; and climate change. Informality should be treated as a common agenda for joint programming by UN agencies based on operational flexibility.
