Crisis Prevention & Response

Helping communities prevent crises and build back better.

UNDP works across the humanitarian-development-peace nexus, helping communities prevent crises, respond when they occur, and recover in ways that address root causes and build long-term resilience. We support early warning systems, provide emergency livelihoods, clear landmines, support peacebuilding, and help communities reduce disaster risk.
