Building resilience to conflicts and disasters is at the very heart of UNDP's work. We work with national and international partners to prevent, manage, and recover from conflicts, natural disasters, and other emergency situations. UNDP leads various initiatives to conflict-sensitive policy development and provides technical assistance to strengthen the capacity of government institutions. 

Our Accelerating climate action and nature-based solutions for protecting fragile ecosystem cluster cooperates with various partners – international and development agencies, financial institutions, and the private sector – to access climate financing mechanisms for mitigation and adaptation, focusing on improved climate resilience of agricultural livelihoods. Sustainable and smart solutions are developed and supported at national and subnational levels for the transparent, accountable, and sustainable management of natural resources, renewable energy, ecosystem services, chemicals, and waste, for better livelihoods. National and subnational governments are strengthened to implement gender-responsive disaster risk reduction strategies, risk management capacities, and livelihood and recovery choices.
