What does earmarking mean in the context of the UNDG ITF?
Pursuant to the UN rules and regulations, the IRFFI TOR and the Letter of Agreement signed with IRFFI donors, the UNDG ITF enables donors to provide contributions either as earmarked or un-earmarked. Donors may earmark contributions by cluster/cross-cutting themes or for a specific Participating UN Organization. Earmarking for specific projects is not permitted. The contributions received will be mingled with other contributions to the UNDG ITF account and will not be separately administered or separately identified for expenditure reporting purposes, except where such a contribution is earmarked for a specific Participating UN Organization.
