Office Description
UNDP is the knowledge frontier organization for sustainable development in the UN Development System and serves as the integrator for collective action to realize the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). UNDP’s policy work carried out at HQ, Regional and Country Office levels, forms a contiguous spectrum of deep local knowledge to cutting-edge global perspectives and advocacy.
In this context, UNDP invests in the Global Policy Network (GPN), a network of field-based and global technical expertise across a wide range of knowledge domains and in support of the signature solutions and organizational capabilities envisioned in the Strategic Plan.Within the GPN, the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS) has the responsibility for developing all relevant policy and guidance to support the results of UNDP’s Strategic Plan. BPPS’s staff provides technical advice to Country Offices; advocates for UNDP corporate messages, represents UNDP at multi-stakeholder fora including public-private dialogues, government and civil society dialogues, and engages in UN inter-agency coordination in specific thematic areas. BPPS works closely with UNDP’s Crisis Bureau (CB) to support emergency and crisis response.
The Bangkok Regional Hub (BRH - with a multidisciplinary office in Suva, Fiji) provides the UNDP Country Offices in the region with reliable and easy access to quality advisory services and technical support based on UNDP’s mandate to address poverty and inequality challenges, promotion of inclusive growth and prosperity, achievement of the SDGs and promotion of sustainable development. Within this context, the Regional Inclusive Growth and Prosperity Team - in close collaboration with the Global Policy Network Teams in the Bangkok Regional Hub, Regional Bureau for Asia Pacific (RBAP) Headquarters in New York, Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS) - focuses on development policy and planning to address poverty and inequality; livelihoods, jobs and macroeconomic policies, social protection, human development, public finance, data analysis, green and blue economy, and most recently the socio-economic impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. In addressing these priority agendas within the framework of SDGs, the BRH Inclusive Growth and Prosperity Team works closely with regional partners, mechanisms and forums around joint commitments, agendas and objectives, including ASEAN, ESCAP, other UN agencies and bilateral partners.
