The UK Sustainable Infrastructure Programme (UKSIP) is a strategic initiative launched by the British Government in partnership with the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB) to catalyze private investment in sustainable infrastructure across Latin America and the Caribbean (LAC), particularly in Brazil, Colombia, Mexico, and Peru. It supports countries in delivering their Nationally Determined Contributions (NDCs) under the Paris Agreement, advances the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), and mobilizes private sector investment in low-carbon, resilient infrastructure.

The IDB Energy Division leads the coordination of country-level dialogues to ensure that the use of funds is strategically aligned with national government priorities. This process benefits from strong engagement and endorsement by both public and private stakeholders. Additionally, the Energy Division oversees the programming of funds for public sector technical cooperation activities, ensuring coherence and alignment to the Theory of Change of the UK SIP.
