SDGs Pulse

SDGs Pulse presents statistical updates on a select number of SDGs, as well as presenting UNCTAD capacity development programs’ case studies. These studies illustrate the results-based management approach of these programs.

Agricultural Cooperative Bank

Aims to improve the living standards in farmers and rural women. It supports agricultural development and a cornerstone of the government’s comprehensive assistance package to farmers.  A technical assistance grant from IFAD supports training for rural women in processing milk by-products for sale in large cities in the project area.

Agha Khan Development Network

A network that offers support to SMEs in need of acceleration. It focuses on women and youth in rural towns and peri-urban settings, where economic opportunities often remain insufficient. It also targets entrepreneurs with low-income earnings, refugees and migrants, the unemployed and those who have not completed primary or secondary education.
