About UNDP in Kuwait

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) has partnered with the State of Kuwait for more than six decades, supporting national efforts to advance sustainable development and achieve long-term prosperity. As the United Nations’ lead development agency, UNDP works with governments, the private sector, civil society, and international partners to help countries build resilient institutions, foster inclusive growth, and address complex development challenges.

In Kuwait, UNDP serves as a trusted development partner, providing policy advice, technical expertise, and innovative solutions that support the country's development priorities and aspirations under Kuwait Vision 2035. Working closely with national institutions, UNDP helps strengthen governance systems, promote economic transformation, advance sustainable finance, accelerate climate action, empower youth, and foster greater social inclusion.

Through its global network, regional expertise, and long-standing partnership with Kuwait, UNDP also supports the country's growing role as a contributor to sustainable development efforts across the Arab region and beyond. By connecting local priorities with global knowledge and partnerships, UNDP helps unlock opportunities that contribute to a more sustainable, resilient, and prosperous future.
