To help solve some of these critical challenges, UNDP has been actively and heavily engaged in helping transform various development sectors in Ethiopia.

The Accelerator Labs are UNDP’s new way of working in development to solve 21st century dynamic and complex development challenges. Together with core partners, the State of Qatar and the Federal Republic of Germany, 60 labs serving 78 countries will work together with national and global partners to find radically new approaches that fit the complexity of current local and global development challenges.

The labs will transform UNDPs collective approach by introducing new accelerated services and solutions backed by evidence, testing and dissemination within and across countries. Sense-making, collective intelligence, solutions mapping and experimentation will be part of the new offer from UNDP to governments.
