The Delivering Together Facility in 2018

The Delivering Together Facility (DTF), was launched in 2017 with the aim of supporting UN country teams (UNCTs) to identify and employ integrated and innovative solutions to development challenges, in support of the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. In 2018, this push towards greater innovation started to show real progress: there was a 7 per cent increase in the number of UNCTs that implemented innovations within their programming activities, from 81 UNCTs in 2017 to 87 in 2018. As another indication of progress towards integrated solutions, 97 per cent of UNCTs have a UN Development Assistance Framework (now the UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework), while 95 per cent of UN country teams have established results groups to assist in national programmatic coordination.
