Annex to Iceland’s Sovereign Sustainable Financing Framework: Financing for Gender Equality

Iceland is fully committed to the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and they have been integrated into government policy on social, economic, and environmental affairs. The Government of Iceland is committed to gender equality and views it as an important human rights issue as well as a prerequisite for peace, progress, and development and thus the attainment of the SDGs. Furthermore, the Government holds sustainability and a just transition for all sections of society as guiding principle in the current transformation due to the climate threat. This Annex to Iceland’s Sovereign Sustainable Financing Framework (2023) describes how the Government will mobilize financing to achieve these ambitions.
