UNDP

We are working with governments and people on their own solutions to development challenges.

Poverty Reduction

Nearly a third of India's people live below the poverty line. Half of Indian women are considered poor.

UNDP supports poverty reduction programme, focusing on human development and equitable access to income opportunities and financial products.

Democratic Governance

Women and members of disadvantaged groups remain vastly underrepresented in India's democratic institutions.

UNDP works to build capabilities to promote more equitable participation in democratic institutions, ensure equal access to justice.

Environment & Energy

Nearly one-10th of the world's animal and plant species are found in India. Many are crucial to the livelihoods of India's people.

UNDP supports efforts to meet climate change challenges, protect biodiversity and protect traditional ways of life.

Eighty percent of India's landmass is highly vulnerable to natural disasters like floods, earthquakes, droughts and cyclones.

UNDP works to build community resilience, rebuilt livelihoods and supports institutions in preparing and managing disasters.

HIV & Development

Women, migrants, people living with HIV, men who have sex with men and transgender are most stigmatised and hard to reach.

UNDP works with vulnerable groups to stem the spread of HIV, promote rights and fight discrimination.
