UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF)

The UN Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) is a strategic planning document that guides the collective work of United Nations agencies within a specific country. It aligns UN activities with national development priorities, such as poverty reduction strategies, ensuring a coordinated and integrated approach. Central to the UNDAF is a Results Matrix, which serves as the UN’s operational plan, detailing expected outcomes and resource allocations. This framework replaces the need for separate agency plans, promoting efficiency and coherence in supporting national goals.
