Undp Palestinian

UNDP's Programme of Assistance to the Palestinian People (UNDP/PAPP) was established via a UN General Assembly Resolution (33/147) on 20 December 1978. It called upon the United Nations Development Programme, in consultation with specialized agencies and other organizations within the United Nations to intensify its efforts: ‘To improve the economic and social conditions of the Palestinian people by identifying their social and economic needs and by establishing concrete projects to that end’. In line with its mandate, UNDP/PAPP continues to play an important role in supporting socio-economic development in the occupied Palestinian territory. Since the establishment of the Palestinian Authority in 1994, UNDP/PAPP, in partnership with public, private institutions, civil society and donors- has invested over one billion Dollars in support of the Palestinian people. UNDP is the leading United Nations organization fighting to end the injustice of poverty, inequality, and climate change. Working with our broad network of experts and partners in 170 countries, we help nations to build integrated, lasting solutions for people and planet.
