UNDP

United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is the United Nation's global development network. UNDP is an organization advocating for change and connecting countries to knowledge, experience and resources to help people build a better life. UNDP works on the ground in 166 countries, working with them on their own solutions to global and national development challenges.

MDGs

The Declaration outlines a wide range of commitments in human rights, governance and democracy. The Millennium Development Goals are a global project, applying to every country in the world. It is important that they are adapted for each country to reflect what is plausible and attainable in that country. Uzbekistan has a set of concrete and realistic national MDG targets and time bound indicators that apply to the Uzbek context. For additional information www.un.uz
