UNDP is committed to helping Nepal build back better. With many years as Nepal’s development partner and employing its wealth of lessons learnt from its work in other crises, UNDP is helping Nepal to develop a long-term recovery framework that emphasizes resilience. Existing programmes have been restructured to address urgent needs that emerged following the disaster such as change to sensitive ecosystems like Lake Imaja, and will include scaling up renewable energy alternatives for some of Nepal's most vulnerable people, building a culture of disaster risk awareness and helping to ensure all reconstruction is done with a build back better approach. UNDP works under the leadership of the Government of Nepal and closely with the UN and other development partners. UNDP is assisting the Government of Nepal to respond to the devastating earthquakes. With a comprehensive programme spanning three years, under the leadership of the government of Nepal, UNDP focuses on four main areas of work: assisting the Government in its recovery planning and implementation, revitalizing livelihoods and supporting the economic recovery of communities, restoring local governance system and public service delivery, and helping to build a disaster resilient Nepal. UNDP links early recovery work with long-term develop- ment and is co-leading the Early Recovery Cluster under the leadership of the Ministry of Federal Affairs and Local Development and the Ministry of Urban Development.
