Mr. Gerd Müller

UNIDO Director General

"Today we are marking an important milestone. The A2D Facility is demonstrating what is possible with new sustainable development solutions. These first demonstration projects create scalable solutions where they are needed most, especially through knowledge transfer and above all strong new public-private partnerships. I am very grateful to the Government of the United Kingdom for their generous funding support of this initiative."
