Integrated national financing frameworks (INFFs) were first introduced by UN Member States in the 2015 Addis Ababa Action Agenda as a country-led approach for strengthening public and private financing for sustainable development. INFFs offer a framework for bringing together the policies used to mobilize and govern public and private financing. They help governments align and strengthen the contribution of financing policies toward the implementation of national development plans. They deepen the connections across financing policy areas and help build greater collaboration between public and private actors. The African continent continues to lead this initiative, with more than 40 governments now using the approach.
