UNOPS project
portfolio in the Philippines encompasses a myriad programmatic areas and sectors. By tailoring its support to the need of
partners, UNOPS provides professional, cost-effective sustainable services
across three main areas: Project Management, Infrastructure, and Procurement. Across all projects, UNOPS identifies and
targets key areas of need to develop capacity, promote sustainability and
gender equality, and increase the efficiency and impact of projects while
always upholding and supporting national ownership. The key aim of UNOPS is to provide excellence
in service delivery while simultaneously enhancing the competency and capacity
of development partners to ensure post-project sustainability.
