For six decades, UNDP has shaped the progress of human development, working with its partners to lift millions from poverty and increase opportunities for all. Empowered by Member States with a mandate to work across the spectrum of human development, UNDP provides integrated support at scale to improve people’s lives worldwide. UNDP’s Strategic Plan  is grounded in the determination to eradicate poverty, the greatest global challenge, indispensable to the 2030 Agenda and the Sustainable Development Goals.

Through the Strategic Plan, UNDP will continue to support countries’ progress towards high human development, while protecting the planet. Four strategic objectives – prosperity for all, effective governance, crisis resilience, and healthy planet – define its strategic direction, powered by three accelerators: digital and artificial intelligence (AI) transformation; gender equality; and sustainable finance. All are underpinned by a commitment to human rights and to leaving no one behind.

Within UNDP, the Bureau for Policy and Programme Support (BPPS) unites world‑class policy expertise, flagship global programmes, and collaborative innovation and learning networks so UNDP is not only ready for the future — but helps build it with governments and partners. To support the achievement of the Strategic Plan, BPPS keeps UNDP at the leading edge of thought and practice, translating evidence into action and elevating solutions that work on the ground.

BPPS is where policy meets practice - for impact. From development to crisis contexts, BPPS helps countries navigate complexity, scale what works, and advance a more just, resilient, and sustainable future.

In response to the dynamic and rapidly changing development context, BPPS implemented a new structure in 2026 to strengthen its ability to plan, adapt, and execute its strategy in support of the achievement of UNDP’s Strategic Plan . A key component of this restructuring is the centralization of operational support functions in the Business Services Hub for greater cost and process efficiency, integrating digital solutions where possible.

The Business Solutions Hub provides support to BPPS Client teams and serves as the principal management adviser to the Directors and Deputy Bureau Director.

In this context, the Finance team of BSH supports BPPS management and Client teams by continuously ensuring strong accountability through informed decision making, effective financial management processes, and transparent financial reporting that complies with all corporate rules and regulations and required risk management thresholds.
