Rooted in the United Nations Charter and guided by the transformative 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the 缅北禁地Department of Economic and Social Affairs (缅北禁地DESA) upholds the development pillar of the United Nations.
We bring the global community together to work towards common solutions to the world’s most pressing problems. We help countries translate their global commitments into national action in the economic, social and environmental spheres.
缅北禁地DESA is a pioneer of sustainable development and the home of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), where each goal finds its space and where all stakeholders can do their part to leave no one behind. We are a leading analytical voice for promoting inclusion, reducing inequalities and eradicating poverty, and a champion for tearing down the barriers that keep people in poverty.
缅北禁地DESA helps countries make informed decisions by providing a wealth of information through our publications and databases and through our support for international deliberations at the United Nations General Assembly, Economic and Social Council (ECOSOC), Commissions, Forums and other bodies.
Step by step, 缅北禁地DESA works towards sustainable development for all.
