United Nations funding

Switzerland’s compulsory contribution is currently equal to 1.134% of the UN budget. This rate applies on an annual basis from 2022–2024. It thus ranks 17th on the list of contributors, in terms of the UN's regular budget, and 14th in terms of the peacekeeping operations budget.

Over and above their compulsory contributions, member states also make voluntary contributions to:

• the Specialized Agencies of the UN System such as the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) and the World Health Organization (WHO)
• UN Programmes and Funds such as the Office of the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) and the UN Children’s Fund (UNICEF)
