نبذة عنا
UNDP is the leading United Nations organization fighting to end the injustice of poverty, inequality, and climate change. Working with our broad network of experts and partners in 170 countries, we help nations to build integrated, lasting solutions for people and planet. UNDP has been operational in Lebanon for nearly five decades, since 1960. Its presence in the country has been continuous in the best of times and in the worst of times, in times of war and peace. The period immediately following the Lebanese Civil War which had raged since 1975 until 1990 and which was superimposed by further invasions and military occupation, was a period of transition for the country as well as for UNDP. As an organization, we have had to continually evolve in orientation and coverage to help in the identification of national needs and priorities in an often rapidly changing development and security setting in order to support the achievement of long-term development objectives. As of recently, we have been, along with WHO and our sister UN agencies, working with the government to address the most urgent health system needs in terms of responding to the COVID19 pandemic. The next phase of UNDP’s COVID-19 crisis response is designed to help decision-makers look beyond recovery, towards 2030, making choices and managing complexity and uncertainty in four main areas: governance, social protection, green economy, and digital disruption. It encompasses our role in technically leading the UN’s socio-economic response. In the aftermath of the devastating explosion in the port of Beirut, our immediate support will prioritize the restoration of livelihoods and small businesses; debris management; and access to justice for impacted vulnerable groups. This will complement urgent relief efforts of sister UN agencies in the first stage response.

🌍💧 At World Water Week, the session on "Mitigating Water Scarcity: Exploring Rainwater Harvesting for Vulnerable Communities" highlighted the impact of rainwater harvesting (RWH) in Lebanon and Jordan as well as other countries from the Arab region. This session, which is part of the UN-Habitat led “Resilient Water Solutions against Climate Change in Jordan and Lebanon” #RWSCC project, funded by the Adaptation Fund, demonstrated how RWH is helping tackle water scarcity, support local agriculture, and empower communities. Key insights from the session include examples of successful RWH implementation and their benefits for both water management and community resilience.
