UNDP Lao PDR Guided by the global UNDP Strategic Plan (2022 – 2025) and UNDP Country Programme for Lao PDR (2022 – 2026) UNDP in Lao PDR works closely with the line Ministries mass organizations civil society development partners and the private sector at both national and sub-national levels in pursuit of the national socio-economic development priorities defined in Lao PDR’s five-year National Socio-Economic Development Plan (NSEDP) and Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). The UNDP’s work is strongly focused on the provision of policy advice and technical support to the Government of Lao PDR in the design and implementation of national legislation and strategies across four broad Priority Pillars – (1) inclusive growth and reduced inequalities (2) UXO clearance and risk education (3) natural resources climate change and disaster risk reduction as well as (4) effective responsive and accountable governance. UNDP has a long history of working in Lao PDR. UNDP’s comparative advantage has been its ability to work closely with a very broad range of government and local-level institutions at all levels. The new UNDP country programme is aligned with the 9th NSEDP and is anchored in UNDP’s long-term partnership with the Government of more than three decades. The new programme builds on the achievements of the previous CPD that saw the incorporation of the SDGs into the national planning architecture. It will aim to support Lao PDR recover from the economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and continue its transition from LDC status with a particular emphasis on supporting inclusive growth and reducing inequality. The UNDP’s programming on effective responsive and accountable governance inter alia focuses on the provision of policy advice and technical support to the Government of Lao PDR to (1) enhance the rule of law access to justice and protection of human rights (2) strengthen people’s participation in decision-making through increased access to information and political representation (3) enhance public administration reform through institutional capacity-development and implementation of the Government’s decentralization policy (Sam Sang Directive). Being the largest global development knowledge network with particular institutional expertise on governance UNDP in Lao PDR co-chairs the Governance Sector Working Group (along with co-chairing the Public Sector Improvement Sub-Sector Working Group and Legal and Institutional Oversight Sub-Sector Working Group) of the Round Table Process a national mechanism to coordinate the implementation of the NSEDPs and SDGs across the governmental institutions development partners CSOs and the private sector. .

Women Members of Parliament staff and gender champions will be supported to mainstream gender equality and inclusion in all law-making oversight and representation activity. These interventions will ensure better and more inclusive decision-making on policy and investment for those left behind (or at risk of being left behind) by Laos’ development journey so far. Improved performance will allow the Assemblies to establish themselves build strong alliances with constituents and gradually expand the scope of their work to have more influence on policy and law-making. Such successful Assemblies create popular demand for increased formal powers which are then institutionalized and translated into increased influence for the legislative branch in Laos governance system. This will improve the governance of Laos at both central and provincial levels lead to better quality decisions and ultimately strengthen the alignment of the country’s development path with the achievement of the SDGs by 2030. Technical Assistance to the National Assembly and the Provincial People’s Assemblies is coordinated by the Internal Cooperation and Project Management Secretariat (ICPMS) an integral body of the National Assembly Chaired by the Deputy Secretary General.
