About the innovation community

The UNDP Innovation Community in Europe and Central Asia spans 18 countries and territories and collaborates to advance innovation for development.

We deploy systemic approaches and work across issues and sectors to accelerate the Sustainable Development Goals through digital transformation and emerging technologies, innovative finance, urban transformation, and advancing innovation ecosystems. 

Our work is anchored by the Innovation and Digital Team at UNDP Europe and Central Asia, which convenes and supports this regional community, provides strategic guidance and resources, and connects country-level practice with global learning.
