IDSF Annual Report 2025

The Secretary-General’s Action Agenda on Internal Displacement (2022) and the subsequent IASC/UNSDG Guidance on Solutions to Internal  Displacement (2025) have established a common direction for supporting government-led solutions to displacement through stronger national owner-ship and more integrated UN support across humanitarian, development, peace, and financing actors. Following the conclusion of the mandate of the Secretary-General’s Special Adviser on Internal Displacement in 2024, the UN  system introduced new institutional arrangements to strengthen system-wide coherence and implementation of the Action Agenda under the  leadership of Resident Coordinators. Central to this architecture is the UN Global Solutions Hub on Internal Displacement, a light system-wide platform that connects country priorities with global policy, technical expertise, data, and financing partnerships. IDSF is the financing instrument of the UN Global Solutions Hub and operates like catalytic venture capital for durable  solutions: deploying relatively small, high-risk-tolerant seed investments to help governments unlock significantly larger pools of domestic,  multilateral, and private-sector capital for durable solutions. The United  Nations Multi-Partner Trust Fund Office administers the IDSF, and is  responsible for maintaining its account, receiving donor contributions, and disbursing funds upon instruction from the Steering Committee.
