We are on the ground in 166 countries, working with them on their own solutions to global and national development challenges. As they develop local capacity, they draw on the people of UNDP and our wide range of partners. In Ukraine, four development focus areas define the structure of UNDP's assistance activities. These include democratic governance ; prosperity, poverty reduction and MDGs ; local development and human security ; and energy and environment . In each of these thematic areas, UNDP tries to ensure balance between policy and advocacy work, capacity building activities and pilot projects.UNDP established its presence in Ukraine in 1993.
