Work for world development
UNDP has been on the frontlines of the fight against poverty for more than 50 years. Now, we're leading the way on the Sustainable Development Goals, a bold plan for humanity. We are building a new executive team with a focus on geographical balance, gender equity and diversity of perspectives. Our commitment to inclusion and diversity is a central piece of our approach. We are ready to do remarkable things at UNDP and need the world’s top talent to be part of our new journey.
