How to Find UNDP's Work in a Specific Country on undp.org

Updated

UNDP publishes country-level content through dedicated country pages linked from its global site. To find a specific country's work, open undp.org and use the site's country or location navigation to select the country or territory you need; the country page then serves as the entry point for local projects, reports, and office information. This works for any of the more than 170 countries and territories UNDP says it works in, provided the country has a published page.

Start from the global site

The homepage at undp.org is the global entry point. From there, country content is reached through the site's country navigation rather than through a separate search engine. The practical sequence is:

  1. Open https://www.undp.org.
  2. Locate the country or location selector in the site navigation.
  3. Choose the country or territory from the list.
  4. Confirm you have landed on that country's own page (the page should name the country and present its local content).

Expected result: a country-specific section of the site where UNDP's work in that place is presented, rather than the global overview.

What a country page typically gives you

Once on a country page, the useful entry points are usually:

  • An overview of the country programme — what UNDP says it is working on there.
  • Projects — individual initiatives with descriptions.
  • Publications and reports — country-level documents and results reporting.
  • News and stories — updates from that office.
  • Contact or office information — where the country office is and how it is reached.

Use the page's own menus and filters to move between these. If a section appears empty, the country page may simply not have published content in that category yet.

If you cannot find the country

A few common situations and what to do:

Situation What to try
Country not visible in the selector Check the spelling or the official name used by the UN; some territories are grouped under a region
You land on a regional page instead Look for a country list within that regional page
Page loads but content is sparse Check the publications or projects sections directly, or the regional hub for that area
You need a specific report Use the site search on the country page with the report title or theme

Verifying you have the right page

Before relying on content, confirm three things: the page names the specific country or territory, the content is dated and attributed to that country office, and any report you open is the country-level version rather than a global or regional summary. UNDP's global pages describe organization-wide work; country pages are where local projects and results are documented.
