India and the United Nations initiated capacity-building projects across nine developing nations on Friday. The Ministry of External Affairs Secretary Tanmaya Lal launched this first phase under the India-UN Global Capacity Building Initiative. Nine partner countries will benefit from these development programs. The initiative targets Zambia, Laos, Nepal, Barbados, Belize, Saint Kitts and Nevis, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, and South Sudan. These projects advance South-South cooperation frameworks.
Four distinct projects address food security, healthcare systems, vocational training, and census preparation. UN Resident Coordinator Shombi Sharp joined diplomatic representatives at the launch ceremony. The program connects Indian institutions with Global South partners through knowledge exchanges and skills training. Officials from the Indian Technical and Economic Cooperation Programme will implement these initiatives. The collaboration leverages India's developmental experience to accelerate Sustainable Development Goals achievement across participating nations.
