UNDP online portal – open access development data
Article Type: News from the net From: International Journal of Sustainability in Higher Education, Volume 14, Issue 2
The UN Development Programme (UNDP) has launched a new online portal allowing users access to data on its work in 177 countries and territories, in an effort to fulfill its transparency commitments. This open access initiative aims to allow the public to track UNDP investments in poverty and sustainable human development for all. The initiative will also enable UNDP partners to manage their resources more effectively. The online portal includes programmatic information on activities, expenditures, income and results on 6,000 active UNDP projects, as well as projects that closed in 2011. Users can sort data based on focus areas, funding sources and locations. It can be seen at: http://open.undp.org/
