Background

Diversity, Equity and Inclusion are core principles at

UNDP:
we value diversity as an expression of the multiplicity of nations and cultures where we operate, we foster inclusion as a way of ensuring all personnel are empowered to contribute to our mission, and we ensure equity and fairness in all our actions.
Taking a 'leave no one behind' approach to our diversity efforts means increasing representation of underserved populations. People who identify as belonging to marginalized or excluded populations are strongly encouraged to apply.

Learn more about working at UNDP including our values and inspiring stories.**Viet Nam is also among the 10 countries most affected by disasters and climate extreme events over the period The successive floods and storms in central Viet Nam in 2020 caused an estimated loss of 1.5% of the GDP.

Every year, Viet Nam generates approximately 3.9 million tons of plastic waste, with only 33% being recycled.

Mismanagement of plastic waste, whether due to inadequate collection or improper disposal, results in pollution of both land and marine environments, adversely affecting ecosystems and human health.

Since 2020, Viet Nam has set out on an ambitious transformation agenda towards a Circular Economy (CE).

The country has integrated its definition of CE in the draft Socio-Economic Development Strategy and the Revised Law on Environmental Protection (LEP) 2020, which marks a cornerstone in the inclusion of CE principles in policy frameworks.

Following the LEP, Decree 08/2022/ND-CP outlined CE principles and stakeholders' s responsibilities in driving the transition towards CE in Viet Nam.

In line with the UN's One Strategic Framework for Sustainable Development Cooperation for Viet Nam for the period , the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP)'s Country Programme Document (CPD) in Viet Nam covers three important areas: 1) Climate Change, Disaster Resilience and Environmental Sustainability; 2) Shared Prosperity through Sustainable Economic Transformation; and 3) Governance and Access to Justice.
