United Nations Regional Bureaus

United Nations Regional Bureaus are divisions that organize the UN’s work around the world into geographic regions. They coordinate efforts, policies, and programs tailored to the specific needs of each area, such as Africa, Asia, or Latin America. These bureaus ensure effective communication between the UN and local governments, partners, and communities, helping address regional issues like development, peace, security, and human rights. By focusing on regional contexts, they facilitate targeted support, promote cooperation, and enhance the overall impact of the UN’s global mission.
