In #Gaza, with support from #PartnersAtCore๐ฏ๐ต @ROJ_Palestine, @UNDP is recycling debris to drive recovery:
โ Reopening roads & infrastructure
โ Rehabilitating service sites
โ Repurposing construction materials
โ Creating local jobs
Humanitarian aid is never the end goal.
This week, UNHCR and @UNDP updated our partnership to advance self-reliance and lasting solutions for people forced to flee.
Together, we can help displaced people and host communities build a more stable future.

One of the most remarkable development journeys in modern history.
The Republic of Korea is today an essential partner in delivering real results for people around the world.
My reflections from Seoul ๐ฐ๐ท
@UNDP@undpspc@MOFAkr_eng@ROK_Mission
.@UNDP๐จ๐ณ's @JamesGCGeorge met with Dr. Zhang Zuqiang, Deputy Administrator of the China Meteorological Administration (CMA) @cmanewsinfocus, to discuss collaboration in key areas, including the #EarlyWarningsForAll initiative, #SSC, capacity-building, and mobilizing finance to strengthen climate resilience.
UNDP looks forward to deepening cooperation with CMA to advance #SDGs, #ClimateAction, and disaster resilience in line with UNDPโs Country Programme Document (CPD) & China's 15th Five-Year Plan.
#Sri Lankaโs recovery journey takes a major step forward.
The Post-Disaster Needs Assessment (#PDNA) for #CycloneDitwah is a Government-led assessment that provides a shared foundation to prioritise needs, align partners, and mobilise resources for a resilient and inclusive recovery.
As the overall Technical Coordinator for this critical process, @UNDP is proud to have accompanied the consultative design process, and will continue to support the design and implementation of the Recovery Framework.

Just joined Dr. Jiyoon Kim on her โKnowledge Playโ podcast.
Really enjoyed the chance to dive deeper into why multilateralism matters more than ever.
Thank you for the excellent conversation.
Looking forward to sharing more soon.
Today marks a key step toward lasting solutions for displaced people and host communities.
In Tokyo, with @BarhamSalih, we signed the new @UNDP โ UNHCR Joint Collaboration Framework.
We will strengthen livelihoods, systems and support beyond crisis.

Recovery starts on day one.
Together with @ROK_mission, we're bringing communities the power to rebuild, recover and move forward from the start, through the global #REVIVE initiative.
Good to meet Ambassador Jihoon Cha to further strengthen the Republic of Korea โ @UNDP partnership.
Grateful for Koreaโs steadfast support, including through REVIVE. Together, we are expanding cooperation from digital and AI to resilient recovery.

In Bosaso city, Somalia ๐ธ๐ด, I met with Abdihakim from @NRC_Norway.
Together, we're providing durable solutions for displaced communities, empowering 150 women to build their own businesses.
Great to see our partnership making a real difference in people's lives.
@NRC_Egeland
A productive discussion with Permanent Secretary @HamzaHaadoow at @MOFASomalia.
Welcomed ๐ธ๐ด's membership to the East African Community @jumuiya.
@UNDP continues to support economic development pathways that expand opportunities for the Somali people.
Very good to meet with the Minister of Foreign Affairs, Yermek Kosherbayev @MFA_KZ. Greatly appreciate 30+ years of @UNDP + Kazakhstan strong partnership.
I reaffirmed our support for ๐ฐ๐ฟ national priorities as well as our cont'd engagement w the @UN Regional Centre in Almaty.
What always stands out to me about Japan is how it thinks about the future.
Long-term. With purpose. Through partnership.
From innovation to impact, I saw this mindset in action in my visit to Tokyo.
@UNDP is proud to partner with Japan to change lives across the world.
In Thailand ๐น๐ญ ๐บ๐ณ
A country at the forefront of climate resilience, AI, and inclusive growth. Looking forward to meeting government officials and partners.
This visit is an opportunity to listen to @UNDP country leadership across the region & connect with teams on the ground.
The @EUpalestinians & the #UN released today the final #Gaza Rapid Damage and Needs Assessment (RDNA), jointly conducted with the @WorldBankMENA following 24 months of conflict.
$71.4B needed for recovery & reconstruction over the next decade, including $26.3B in the first 18 months.
With massive destruction to housing, health & education, and an 84% economic contraction, #recovery must start now- alongside #humanitarian action.

A pleasure to meet Zou Jiayi, President of @AIIBOfficial.
UNDP and AIIB can do more together: driving low-carbon growth, creating jobs, advancing digital transformation, and scaling blended finance by aligning policy, de-risking, and capital.
Glad to co-host Ozone2Climate Tech Roundtable w/@UNEP & FECO. 10 yrs after Kigali Amendment to the #MontrealProtocol, advancing climate-friendly cooling means driving industrial transformation & scaling policy support, research & financing in& globally. https://t.co/RY4Otdov83
With @UNReliefChief in Damascus.
Humanitarian aid saves lives. Development sustains them: restoring basic services, rebuilding livelihoods, creating jobs.
Working as one, we help move Syria from crisis to recovery, and from recovery to stability.
This is delivery in action.
On #MineAction Day, I think of families like Billyโs in the Solomon Islands who are living each day with hidden dangers beneath their feet.
80 years on, WWII munitions still threaten their safety & their environment.

In fragile & crisis-affected contexts, climate action is shaped by what conflict leaves behind.
Contaminated land & water from unexploded ordnance constrain how communities adapt & recover.
See how @UNDP supports #MineAction to build climate resilience๐ https://t.co/RL2i0Je5n4
