Acerca del PNUD en Panamá
El PNUD fue fundado en 1965 como el brazo de la ONU para promover el desarrollo. Su creación es el resultado de la fusión del Programa Ampliado de las Naciones Unidas para la Asistencia Técnica (creado en 1949) y el Fondo Especial de las Naciones Unidas (establecido en 1958).
La Oficina del PNUD inicio sus actividades en Panamá como agente de desarrollo en 1973, desde entonces - a solicitud del Gobierno de Panamá - el PNUD ha apoyado la gestión de implementación y ejecución de programas y proyectos de beneficio al país orientados al logro de los Objetivos de Desarrollo del Milenio y consolidar el desarrollo humano en el país.
En este contexto seis Ministerios y trece Instituciones Descentralizadas o Autónomas fungen como Agencia de Implementación (Ejecución Nacional) en el marco de una cartera de proyectos de desarrollo y asistencia técnica. El Ministerio de Relaciones Exteriores (MIRE), como responsable de la coordinación de la cooperación reembolsable y no reembolsable, participa en la formulación y seguimiento del Programa de País.
Los fondos que emplea el PNUD en Panamá provienen del Gobierno (a través de diversas instituciones gubernamentales como ministerios, autoridades descentralizadas, organismos autónomos, entre otros); aportes de la banca multilateral (Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo y Banco Mundial); la Agencia Española de Cooperación Internacional; fondos fiduciarios del PNUD y el Sistema de las Naciones Unidas; así como de fondos propios del PNUD.
