UN DESA

The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA) is one of the core entities of the United Nations (UN) responsible for addressing global economic, social, and environmental challenges. Its work is essential to supporting international policymaking, providing reliable data, and promoting sustainable development worldwide. Since its inception, UN DESA has acted as a bridge between Member States, civil society, and the scientific community in the search for comprehensive solutions to global problems.

UN DESA was established as part of the UN's administrative structure to coordinate research, statistics, and technical assistance on development.

The United Nations Department of Economic and Social Affairs is a key pillar within the United Nations structure. Its technical, analytical, and coordinating work makes it an indispensable actor for understanding and addressing the economic, social, and environmental challenges of the 21st century. In a global context characterized by persistent inequalities, climate crisis, and economic tensions, UN DESA represents a fundamental source of knowledge and cooperation for advancing towards sustainable and equitable development.
