Legal framework

UNDP's work in Europe and Central Asia is guided by the UNDP Strategic Plan 2026–2029 and the Regional Programme for Europe and Central Asia 2026–2029, approved by the UNDP Executive Board.

The Regional Programme complements UNDP's country-level work by addressing shared development challenges and opportunities that cross borders or are best tackled at scale. It promotes regional cooperation and public goods, knowledge exchange and innovative solutions that help countries advance prosperity, strengthen resilience, improve governance and accelerate sustainable development — creating value that no single country programme could generate alone.

Country Programme Documents (CPDs) set out UNDP's support at the national level. Developed in partnership with governments and approved by the Executive Board, they define the priorities, expected results and partnerships that guide UNDP's work in each programme country.
