UNV partnering with Spain

Since 1991, the Government of Spain and the United Nations Volunteers (UNV) programme have worked closely together to support global UN development, humanitarian and peacebuilding efforts. To date, this collaboration, through the UNV Full Funding (FF) programme, has facilitated the deployment of more than 300 UN Volunteers, including national UN Volunteers from the global South.

Spain, represented by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs continues to support the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by the deployment of fully funded UN Volunteers worldwide. For instance, these volunteers support UN efforts to defend human rights, promote gender equality and foster food security in Latin America and Africa.
