Present in 170 countries, UNDP works on the world’s biggest problems: extreme poverty, climate change, good governance, renewable energy, crisis prevention, and women’s empowerment, among others. The UNDP Strategic Plan 2026–2029 focuses on four overarching goals: advancing prosperity for all by expanding equitable economic opportunities, strengthening effective governance to ensure accountable and inclusive institutions, boosting crisis resilience so countries can withstand and recover from shocks, and protecting a healthy planet through integrated climate and nature solutions. These goals are driven by three accelerators—digital and AI transformation, gender equality, and sustainable finance—which enable UNDP to support systemic, country‑led development pathways that leave no one behind. The Regional Hub for Latin America and the Caribbean supports 24 countries in LAC and frames its work under the Regional Program for LAC (2026-2029) through its country offices with governments to develop tailor-made solutions to development challenges and contribute to strengthening local capacities.

Within this portfolio, the LAC E&E is implementing a series of regional projects including the regional International Climate Initiative (IKI) funded project “Accelerating Access to Low-Carbon Urban Mobility Solutions through Digitalization” (ACCESS).
