Bangladesh’s Permanent Representative to the UN, Ambassador Muhammad Abdul Muhith, has been elected as the Vice President of the UNDP/UNFPA/UNOPS Executive Board for 2023 on Tuesday (10th January). The Kenyan ambassador was chosen to lead the board as president. The ambassadors of Costa Rica, Ukraine, and Turkey are the other vice presidents. Bangladesh can now collaborate closely with the other board members and the leadership of these three crucial UN agencies to shape their strategic direction.

The specific mandates of the UNDP, UNFPA, and UNOPS are to promote the UN’s development agenda on the ground and achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The largest UN organization, UNDP, focuses mostly on eradicating poverty and promoting sustainable development. While UNOPS works on topics that stretch across peace, development, and humanitarian challenges, the UNFPA focuses on population and family planning issues.
