UNDP works in more than 170 countries and territories, helping to achieve the eradication of poverty and the reduction of inequalities and exclusion. We help countries develop policies, leadership skills, partnering abilities, institutional capabilities and build resilience in order to sustain development results.
Accountability is the obligation to demonstrate that work has been conducted in accordance with agreed rules and standards and report fairly and accurately on performance results vis-à-vis mandated roles and/or plans.
In order to achieve its mandate, UNDP relies entirely on voluntary contributions from UN Member States, multilateral organizations, private sector and other sources, in the form of unrestricted regular resources (core), and contributions earmarked for a specific theme, programme or project.
Partnership is at the heart of everything UNDP does. We offer a nearly universal presence. Our substantial expertise—both intellectual acumen and practical experience—cuts across diverse development issues and settings.

UNDP: a partner of choice
At UNDP, partnership goes beyond a mantra and is at the heart of everything we do. We offer a nearly universal presence that cuts across diverse development issues and settings. These valuable assets combined with our long legacy of trust have made us a global partner of choice.
Sierra Leone is currently implementing UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2020-2023, which is the medium-term results framework that describes how the UN system in Sierra Leone will support the implementation of Sierra Leone’s Medium-Term National Development Plan (MTNDP) 2019-2023 and the progress towards the achievement of the 17 global Sustainable Development Goals while ensuring that no-one is left behind.
Our Country Programme Document (CPD) 2020-2023 was created through a participative process with contributions from all UN agencies operating in Sierra Leone, Government, international development partners, non-governmental and civil society organizations, and private sector entities.
UNDP remains committed to working even more closely with partners across all sectors.
