ABOUT : 

Next Generation UNDP aims at creating new solutions, building collaboration platforms, and sparking new partnerships and instruments for development. These innovations are disrupting the way the Organization thinks, invests, manages, and delivers - so it can perform faster and better than ever to accelerate progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals.
UNDP prioritizes innovative approaches to development to reimagine sustainable development for the 21st century by accelerating learning on what works and what doesn’t when it comes to sustainable development, testing new ways of working to address social and environmental challenges, and creating a new capability for decision-makers to explore, experiment, and grow portfolios of mutually reinforcing solutions to tackle today’s challenges.
In line with this vision UNDP Armenia established a dedicated portfolio to advance innovative solutions, apply acceleration initiatives, explore impact investment and other non-conventional approaches to development.
The Programme Analyst position was created to manage the Country Office Innovation, Acceleration and Impact Investment Portfolio with a focus on the design and implementation of the experimentation, innovative and evidence-based policy making, new financing schemes and leveraging private and public finance for the SDGs.
