About Us

Who we are

UNOSSC’s South-South Galaxy is a global knowledge sharing and partnership brokering platform launched in 2019 with the support of the Finance Center for South-South Cooperation, and through consultations with UN agencies and other development partners. The platform acts as a needs broker and aims to facilitate partnerships between countries and regions for knowledge sharing, capacity development and creating a wide range of opportunities.

Revamped in 2024, the platform offers a range of new features and serves as a consolidated South-South and triangular cooperation platform for all partners and acts as ‘one-stop-shop’ for all to utilize and benefit from. Key features include:

  • Integrates technologies, including an AI-powered digital assistant and a PowerBI Solutions dashboard for enhanced data accessibility, visualization and analysis.
  • Acts as a needs broker and matchmaker, connecting solution providers and seekers.
  • Facilitates access to available financing mechanisms, capacity development initiatives and research.
  • Connects and links most of the existing South-South knowledge sharing platforms developed by UN agencies and development partners.
  • Facilitates collaboration among partners, including UN agencies, governments, and other development actors.
