The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the United Nations’ global development network. Established in 1965, UNDP advocates for change and connects countries to knowledge, experience, and resources to help people build a better life. Its work focuses on eradicating poverty and reducing inequalities through sustainable development.
UNDP operates in about 170 countries and territories, helping to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and supporting countries in their efforts to end poverty, reduce inequalities, and promote sustainable development. The organization collaborates with governments, civil society, and the private sector to create solutions that meet the challenges of the modern world.
The organization also plays a crucial role in crisis response, providing support for countries in conflict and post-conflict situations. UNDP emphasizes the importance of inclusive governance and the participation of all citizens in decision-making processes to ensure sustainable and equitable development.
Through its innovative approaches and strategic partnerships, UNDP works to strengthen the capacities of countries to respond to global challenges, including climate change, gender equality, and social inclusion. By fostering local leadership and empowering communities, UNDP aims to create a more just and sustainable world for all.
