UNDP is working to strengthen new frameworks for development, disaster risk reduction and climate change. We support countries' efforts to achieve the new Sustainable Development Goals, which will guide global development priorities through 2030.The key 2030 Agenda principle of leaving no one behind and stamping out inequality is at the core of everything we do.
- UNDP focuses on helping countries build and share solutions in three main areas:
- Sustainable development
- Democratic governance and peacebuilding
- Climate and disaster resilience
In all our activities, we encourage the protection of human rights and the empowerment of women, minorities and the poorest and most vulnerable.
In 2010 UNDP launched the Green Commodities Programme (GCP) - currently known as Food and Agricultural Commodity Systems (FACS) - to improve the national economic, social, and environmental performance of agricultural commodity sectors.
