Through upstream policy advice, rigorous use of data and evidence to inform key decisions, and strengthened partnerships, UNFPA aims to tackle the critical obstacles impeding progress towards the SDGs. By addressing these systemic challenges, we can unlock the region’s potential for economic prosperity, sustainable development, and more equitable societies.
