Prevention and Resilience in Guinea Bissau

Our mission

Present in the country since the signature of the Cooperation Agreement with the Government of Guinea-Bissau on 29 June, 1975, immediately after its independence, UNDP focuses its interventions in the country in support of good governance, sustainable, inclusive and resilient development, working for a future that offers equality, dignity and opportunities for all, following the commitment to the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Our Impact
