About

The United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in Côte d’Ivoire invites expressions of interest from qualified organizations to serve as implementation partners for its 2026–2030 Country Programme. This initiative aims to advance digital inclusion, strengthen sustainable development, and build climate resilience across communities. Program priorities include expanding access to digital public services through decentralization and citizen training, enhancing local governance and localization of the Sustainable Development Goals, and promoting social and economic inclusion for women, youth, persons with reduced mobility, and other vulnerable groups. The programme also emphasizes innovation for sustainable growth, supporting circular economy practices, reforestation and restoration of degraded landscapes, renewable energy access in rural and peri-urban areas, and green entrepreneurship led by youth and women. Selected partners will receive funded contracts to plan, implement, monitor, and report on community-level interventions in alignment with national development priorities. The initiative places strong emphasis on inclusive development, ensuring that vulnerable populations benefit directly from digital transformation and climate-resilient growth.
