The UNDP was founded on 22 November 1965 with the merging of the Expanded Programme of Technical Assistance (EPTA) and the Special Fund the rationale was to "avoid duplication of [their] activities" the EPTA was set up in 1949 to help the economic and political aspects of underdeveloped countries while the Special Fund was to enlarge the scope of UN technical assistance the Special Fund arose from the idea of a Special United Nations Fund for Economic Development (SUNFED) (which was initially called the United Nations Fund for Economic Development (UNFED) Countries such as the Nordic countries were proponents of such a United Nations (UN) controlled fund However the fund was opposed by developed countries especially by the United States who was wary of the Third World dominating such a funding and preferred it to be under the auspices of the World Bank the concept of SUNFED was dropped to form the Special Fund This Special Fund was a compromise over the SUNFED concept it did not provide investment capital but only helped to bring pre-conditions for private investment With the US proposing and creating the International Development Association within the World Bank's umbrella the EPTA and the Special Fund appeared to be conducting similar work in 1962 the United Nations Economic and Social Council asked the Secretary General to consider the merits and disadvantages of merging UN technical assistance programs and in 1966 the EPTA and the Special Fund merged to form the UNDP Budget.

Student Learning Centre from Yonge Street 6.3 TFC Juniors 5 Economy Hopewell Rocks are rock formations located at the upper reaches of the Bay of Fundy near Hopewell Cape Bedrock types range from 1 billion to 200 million years old. Much of the bedrock in the west and north derives from ocean deposits in the Ordovician that were subject to folding and igneous intrusion and that were eventually covered with lava during the Paleozoic peaking during the Acadian orogeny During the Carboniferous era about 340 million years ago New Brunswick was in the Maritimes Basin a sedimentary basin near the equator Sediments brought by rivers from surrounding highlands accumulated there; after being compressed they produced the Albert oil shales of southern New Brunswick Eventually sea water from the Panthalassic Ocean invaded the basin forming the Windsor Sea Once this receded conglomerates sandstones and shales accumulated the rust colour of these was caused by the oxidation of iron in the beds between wet and dry periods. Such late carboniferous rock formed the Hopewell Rocks which have been shaped by the extreme tidal range of the Bay of Fundy In the early Triassic as Pangea drifted north it was rent apart forming the rift valley that is the Bay of Fundy Magma pushed up through the cracks forming basalt columns on Grand Manan Topography. .
