Leadership and Team

UNDP Liberia is guided by a dynamic leadership team committed to advancing inclusive and sustainable development across the country. The Country Office is headed by the Resident Representative, who provides strategic direction and oversees the effective management of all operations. Supporting this role is the Deputy Resident Representative, who ensures the smooth coordination of programme and operational functions.

The leadership structure includes Pillar Leads for two core programme portfolios, each designed to deliver impactful results aligned with Liberia’s national development priorities and the African Agenda for Inclusive Development (AAID).

This team is further strengthened by a group of dedicated Advisors, Programme Managers, and Technical Specialists, who bring a wealth of expertise and diverse perspectives to UNDP’s work in Liberia.
