Our focus

 

Our work in Barbados and the Eastern Caribbean is shaped by local country priorities and guided by the current UNDP Strategic Plan and Multi-Country Programme Document. It is organised across programme clusters that reflect the region’s priorities and connect national action with broader development goals. 

 

Programme Clusters

Nature, Climate and Energy

These projects and programmes are supporting climate action, environmental protection and sustainable energy solutions that help countries and communities build resilience and protect natural resources.

Together, these focus areas help strengthen resilience, expand opportunity and support lasting progress in local communities. Building on UNDP’s 60 years of expertise across 170 countries, this approach allows us to focus and prioritize where country demands are greatest.
