Delivering for development
The “One UN” pilot initiative is testing in eight countries, how the United Nations family – with its numerous and diverse agencies – can deliver results in a more coordinated way at the country level.
The objective is to ensure faster and more effective development operations and accelerate progress to achieve the Millennium Development Goals – in short, a UN development system that delivers more and better for the poorest and most disadvantaged.
Following a request from the Albanian Government to the United Nations, Albania was selected as one of eight countries around the world to pilot UN efforts to Deliver as One UN in January 2007.
Albania is one of eight countries around the world to pilot UN efforts to Deliver as One UN and the only one in Europe.
