The Joint Steering Committee of the One Fund in Kyrgyzstan had its first meeting on 9 March 2010. The Steering Committee has fully programmed the Expanded Funding Window allocation to One Fund in Kyrgyzstan, amounting to US$ 3.6 million. The 10 newly approved projects and joint programmes, implemented by the UN Agencies (FAO, UNDP, UNICEF, UNIDO, UNIFEM, UNFPA, UNHCR, UNV, WFP and WHO) will contribute to addressing the effects of energy, food insecurity and the global economic crisis on the most vulnerable population. The approved fund allocations have been transferred by the MDTF Office, that is serving as the Administrative Agent of the Fund, to the Participating Organizations in March 2010.
