Norway signed a new cooperation agreement of around $ 53 million with the United Nations Environment Program (UNEP) to encourage it respond to emerging environment challenges.<\/p>\n

The new agreement was signed on 1 July 2022, by Inger Andersen and the Director-General of Norad, B\u00e5rd Vegar Solhjell, aims to strengthen UNEP and enable the effective implementation of its\u00a0Medium-Term Strategy<\/a>\u00a0(2022-2025).<\/p>\n

The new agreement is in addition to the annual standard contribution from Norway to the Environment Fund. Through the agreement, funds will be directed to UNEP\u2019s three newly established\u00a0thematic funds<\/a>\u00a0and directly to the\u00a0Environment Fund<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is a large agreement of flexible funding because we really value UNEPs fundamental role as the number one global authority on environment,\u201d said Solhjell. \u201cNorad wants to encourage UNEP to take its role to its full potential and strengthen the integration of climate and environment in the\u00a0whole UN system\u00a0within\u00a0all its operations\u00a0and programs\u00a0worldwide. We are looking forward to a continued close collaboration with you. The world needs a strong UNEP.\u201d<\/p>\n

Core and flexible funding are critical for UNEP to implement its program of work and to respond to emerging environmental challenges. It enables UNEP to continue innovating and delivering high-quality science and policy support on the triple planetary crises of climate change, nature and biodiversity loss, pollution and waste.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe at UNEP are very grateful for the unwavering support that we have received from Norway over the past few decades,\u201d said Inger Andersen, Executive Director of UNEP. \u201cWe see our strong collaboration as a testimony, both to the importance of our mandate and to the trust that Norway places on UNEP\u2019s ability to provide solutions to the triple planetary crisis. This new agreement will provide much-needed funding for UNEP thematic funds to achieve climate stability, live in harmony with nature, and move to a pollution-free planet. This support will strengthen UNEP so that we are able to deliver results for people and planet.\u201d<\/p>\n

For five decades, UNEP has monitored the state and health of the environment, set the global environmental agenda, and helped identify the best action to tackle environmental challenges. This work supports policy and lawmakers in all countries to base policies and legislation on science and evidence, so that the actions they take will promote all aspects of sustainable development. UNEP works in partnerships, and has a central role in coordinating efforts and supporting countries to deliver on their environmental goals and commitments under international agreements.<\/p>\n

The environment has been central to Norwegian policies for the past five decades as well. Like UNEP, the Norwegian Ministry of climate and environment also celebrates its 50th<\/sup>\u00a0anniversary this year.<\/p>\n

On the domestic front, Norway\u2019s priorities include sustainable land and ocean management and the green economic transition to meet climate targets under the\u00a0Paris accord<\/a>. At the international level, Norway supports a strong environmental governance system and is engaged in efforts to preserve tropical forests and fight plastic pollution.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
