UNITED NATIONS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME
As the primary United Nations agency for international development, UNDP operates in 170 countries and territories, striving to eliminate poverty and reduce inequality. We achieve this by assisting nations in shaping policies, enhancing leadership skills, fostering partnerships, strengthening institutions, and building resilience to support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Our work focuses on three core areas:

Sustainable Development: UNDP promotes sustainable economic growth while safeguarding the environment, emphasizing sustainable resource management, equitable access to essential services, and climate change mitigation.
Democratic Governance and Peace Building: We support nations in achieving stable democracies and peaceful societies by bolstering institutions, upholding the rule of law, encouraging inclusive political participation, and addressing conflicts.
Climate and Disaster Resilience: UNDP addresses climate change and disaster preparedness, collaborating with countries to adapt to a changing climate, reduce vulnerabilities, and enhance readiness for natural disasters.
In summary, UNDP’s comprehensive approach combats poverty, reduces inequality, and advances the SDGs through sustainable development, democratic governance, peacebuilding, and climate resilience efforts worldwide.
