Working smarter, increasing innovation, aligning policy and programming


UNDP draws on a global network of development practitioners to provide timely and high-quality advice, expertise and know-how to policy makers and other partners in the countries where we operate – helping them pursue the best possible development solutions.

Knowledge sharing and networking takes place principally through Communities of Practice (COPs) and further support is provided at the regional level through Regional Service Centres (RSCs) and Sub-Regional Resource Facilities (SURFs).

 

Development Impacts

The Iraqi Constitution

In enshrining the existence and independence of the Electoral, Public Integrity and Human Rights Commissions in the Iraqi Constitution – to safeguard them against sudden changes by executive action or through the ordinary legislative process – the Iraq Constitutional Drafting Committee reflected the advice of the Democratic Governance Practice Network members. Channeled through the UNDP Jordan country office, the advice was provided in a Consolidated Reply, a core knowledge sharing and practice network product, which additionally fed into the development of the National Human Rights Plan.
