The Global Environment Facility team of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP-GEF) is headquartered in New York City, New York (U.S.A.), and has Regional Co-ordination Units located in various regions of the world to best respond to the needs of the countries and communities we serve.

The UNDP-GEF Directorate in New York oversees all policy and operational decisions related to the functioning of the unit. In addition, the UNDP-GEF is charged with managing two corporate GEF programmes, namely, the Small Grants Programme (SGP) and the Country Dialogue Workshops (CDW). The May 2003 GEF Council approved the GEF National Consultative Dialogue Initiative. This new corporate Initiative will replace the CDW and focus on the next phase of multi-stakeholder dialogue between the GEF and countries.

A group of specialized personnel (principal technical advisers, regional managers, and other staff) coordinate with our staff located in the Regional Co-ordination Units to manage all operational aspects of the unit. Currently, there are six such units located in Malaysia (Kuala Lumpur), Slovak Republic (Bratislava), Lebanon (Beirut), Mexico (Mexico City), Senegal (Dakar) and South Africa (Pretoria). The regional team leaders, regional co-ordinators and other staff in these regions work with headquarters and the various countries, governments, civil society, non-governmental organizations, and other organizations in their regions.
