A Cost Effective Choice for Implementation

Grants for capital and technical assistance

As a grant-based capital and technical assistance institution, UNDP/PAPP's work on behalf of the Palestinian people is not conditional, nor do funds contributed through UNDP/PAPP towards development need to be repaid by the Palestinian National Authority (PNA). UNDP/PAPP provides additional support from its resources to projects to improve performance and efficiency of implementation.

Transparency and accountability

UNDP/PAPP operates under international rules of financial management, control and auditing, and as an international public institution, its operations are fully transparent. UNDP/PAPP offers technical and managerial expertise, close cooperation with the PNA and civil society organizations, and cost effective implementation to those institutions which aim to foster the peace process and to develop the infrastructure, institutional capacity, economy and social sector of the occupied Palestinian territory (oPt).

Complementary funding

UNDP/PAPP often complements the financial resources of bilateral and other donors with its own resources to ensure quality and efficiency of delivery.
