Supporting India’s Development Priorities
In India, as in other countries in the world, our work is guided by the between the Government of India and the United Nations system in India to contribute to the achievement of national priorities and the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
The UNSDF was framed following a highly participative process, in consultation with government entities, civil society representatives, academia, and the private sector. The seven focus areas include:
– Poverty and Urbanisation
– Health, Water, and Sanitation
– Education and Employability
– Nutrition and Food Security
– Climate Change, Clean Energy and Disaster Resilience
– Skilling, Entrepreneurship, and Job Creation
Across outcome areas, the UN also supports the Government of India on south-south cooperation, in partnership with the Ministry of External Affairs.
The UNSDF serves as a partnership framework between the Government of India and the UN System and is being nationally executed under the overall coordination of NITI Aayog.
