About UNSDCF

What is UNSDCF

The United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) 2023–2027 between the United Nations (UN) and the Government of Pakistan articulates the collective framework of UN support for Pakistan’s achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). It is nationally owned and reflects national development priorities. It is a compact between the UN and the Government of Pakistan to work together, and in partnership with others – including non-governmental organizations, academia, the private sector and development partners – towards an increasingly resilient Pakistan. A Pakistan where all people, particularly those most disadvantaged, enjoy rights, opportunities and well-being.

If the health of the Indus River Basin is restored and protected, and resources are equitably and efficiently

better equipped to adapt to climate change and mitigate its impact.
If there is sustainable, inclusive green economic growth and decent work, there will be equitable employment
opportunities, greater productivity, a sustainable business environment and the realization of workers’ rights.
If inclusive, accountable and efficient governance systems are in place, they will provide equitable service delivery, affordable and accessible justice systems, and enable people to be aware of – and obtain – their rights.
