How the UN is supporting The Sustainable Development Goals in Seychelles

How the UN is supporting The Sustainable Development Goals in Seychelles The United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (formerly named United Nations Development Assistance Framework) is the most important instrument for planning and implementation of the UN development activities at the country level. In Seychelles, this document is known as the “Government of Seychelles and United Nations Strategic Partnership Framework (SPF) 2019-2023: Securing Human Development for Generations". The SPF outlines the nature and scope of the cooperation agreement between the Government of the Republic of Seychelles and the United Nations system. It summarizes joint collaboration in four strategic areas of work drawn from the National Development Strategy (NDS): (1) Enhancing opportunities for sustainable utilization of the blue economy, industrialization and agriculture development, (2) Environmental sustainability, resilience and disaster risk management, (3) strengthening human capital development through quality health care, education and promoting quality of life, and (4) promoting science, technology, innovation and data development to facilitate socio-economic development. Under each of these strategic areas of work, crosscutting areas address specificities in Governance, Gender Equality and Human Rights.
