UNOPS focus on action makes UNOPS unique a valuable partner for Governments committed to development, transparency and high-quality services for their people. UNOPS helps to face challenges in every country where it works, using limited resources effectively, preventing corruption and ensuring that aid reaches those who need it most.
To build the sustaibnmable and resilient infrastructure needed to ensure a better future for people by 2030, UNOPS is strengthening collaboration, bringing the private sector, aid agencies and Governments together. Moreover, UNOPS assists Governments in developing efficient implementation of procurement projects, by promoting the modernization of public management and ensurethat every budget is spent in accordance with needs. Eradicating corruption from bidding processes produces an economic transformation that also helps tackle inequalities and ensure that public money is spent for the people it aims to serve.
