Overview
Economic Recovery
UNDP works globally with communities and
societies affected by natural disasters, crisis and
conflicts, during both, sudden and protracted
situations for early and long-term economic and
livelihoods recovery. We believe in systematically
addressing underlying vulnerabilities and
inequalities to progress towards sustainable and
equitable development. Our economic recovery
efforts are the first critical steps towards reducing
vulnerability and building resilience.
