Global reality check survey – your needs and priorities for future training

In the framework of UNITAR's 60th anniversary, we are launching a global reality check survey to understand your needs and priorities for our future training activities. At UNITAR we are committed to providing quality training, and your opinion is very important for us.

We would appreciate if you could take a few minutes to respond to this online survey.

The COVID-19 pandemic is exacerbating unemployment, poverty, and social inequality, particularly for women and youth, and hindering progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Entrepreneurship is central to addressing poverty and social inequity. Small and medium-sized enterprises contribute to 35 per cent of gross domestic product in developing economies and are an important source of employment for women and youth. Yet, these enterprises are among the first to be affected by
the pandemic.

Sustained and inclusive economic growth through entrepreneurship and private-sector development can drive progress, create decent jobs, and improve living standards.

People’s well-being is rooted in economic, social and environmental security.

Below are our projects to promote entrepreneurship and private sector development.

Entrepreneurship and social entrepreneurship have the potential to promote socioeconomic development and help the world “build back better.” When women have knowledge and skills in entrepreneurship, they can lead their own initiatives and businesses (social or commercial) and engage more meaningfully in their societies. Thus, this programme was exclusively designed for women entrepreneurs and leaders from the Horn of Africa, focusing on entrepreneurship, social entrepreneurship, leadership, and innovation, with the generous financial support of the Government and People of Japan.
