What we do
The United Nations system supports Moldova in tackling major development challenges as it implements its vision to be a prosperous and modern European country. The coordination of UN Agencies' work will be strengthened under the UN-Moldova Partnership Framework “Towards Unity in Action” 2013-2017, which will be implemented through a common action plan.
The UN Moldova Annual Reports are prepared by the UN's six inter-agency theme groups, highlighting key development trends, progress and results achieved with UN support.
How we work
 The member Agencies of the UN Country Team meet on a monthly basis under the leadership of the UN Resident Coordinator to coordinate support and discuss and decide jointly on programmatic and operational issues. Kaarina Immonen is UN Resident Coordinator in Moldova since June 2007.
The UN-Moldova Partnership Framework "Towards Unity in Action" 2013-2017 (English), (Romanian) outlines the UN work in the country.
Based on the lessons learned from an Evaluation of the current UN Development Assistance Framework (English) and a UN Country Analysis (English), (Romanian) the new partnership framework voices the collective determination of the UN to provide relevant support to Moldova’s national priorities where it can make the biggest difference, avoiding duplications and establishing synergies with ongoing interventions. It focuses on three thematic pillars that enhance and complement the national priorities: (1) Democratic Governance, Justice, Equality and Human Rights; (2) Human Development and Social Inclusion; and (3) Environment, Climate Change and Disaster Risk Management.
Through the new partnership framework, the UN will adjust to the rapidly changing global context of development cooperation by adopting a Delivering as One approach. In Moldova, this approach envisions an empowered UN Resident Coordinator and UN Country Team; greater programmatic coherence through a common UN action plan; one budgetary framework; complementary resource mobilization; common business practices; and increasingly speaking with a common voice.
The UN Country Team is committed to strengthen aid effectiveness and the principles agreed in the Paris Declaration and the Accra Agenda for Action, including strengthening national ownership and leadership, better aligning with national priorities and use of national systems when possible, and stronger harmonization among UN Agencies. At the national level, the UN is committed to implement the Moldova Partnership Principles, signed by over 20 development partners, through its Implementation Plan.
