UNDP’s Global Programme on Strengthening the Rule of Law and Human Rights for Sustaining Peace and Fostering Development seeks to underpin broader UN efforts in achieving lasting peace and sustainable development. The programme seeks to contribute to establishing a culture of respect for the rule of law and embedding human rights principles in UNDP’s work to build integrated and sustainable solutions for people and planet. As the Decade of Action for achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals has commenced, creating peaceful, just, and inclusive societies has never been more crucial.
