UNPOG

The United Nations Project Office on Governance (UNPOG) is part of the Division for Public Institutions and Digital Government (DPIDG) of the United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA). Its principal mission is to strengthen the public governance capacities of developing Member States in Asia and the Pacific and beyond to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development... UNPOG was established in June 2006 to promote efficient, participatory and transparent governance as an outcome of the 6th Global Forum on Reinventing Government... The operational work of UN DESA, and thus UNPOG, aims to strengthen capacities of developing countries to translate internationally agreed policy frameworks into strategies and programs at all levels of public governance. The focus on strengthening the capacity of public administration falls within the mandate of UN DESA's Division for Public Administration and Development Management.
