About

United Nations Industrial Development Organisation (UNIDO), established on the 8th of April 1979, is a UN Organisation primarily associated with Sustainable Development Goal 9, Industry, Innovation, and Infrastructure, and is dedicated to promoting and accelerating inclusive and sustainable industrial development in the Member States. The Organisation has four focal points which are creating shared prosperity, advancing economic competitiveness, safeguarding the environment, and strengthening knowledge and institutions. 

East Asia and the Pacific is home to the world's fastest growing industries and advanced manufacturing hubs. However, it also includes small developing  nations that face major challenges in industrial development and environmental sustainability due to limited infrastructure and investments as well as recurring natural disasters.  UNIDO supports the region by implementing programs that promote extensive and sustainable industrialization, enhance resource efficiency, and strengthen industrial competitiveness. Furthermore, UNIDO also implements measures aimed at enhancing modern technology while expanding access to cleaner technologies.
