ADB Theme Bonds for Sustainable Development

Since launching the water bond, ADB has expanded its theme bond offerings to include health, gender, and education bonds. The projects funded by theme bonds are aligned with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) adopted by the United Nations on quality education, gender equality, clean water and sanitation, and good health.
