Uniting UN’s Economic Expertise
Leveraging the UN system
PAGE is at the forefront of advancing a fair and green economic transformation, strengthening collaboration and impact across the UN System. By leveraging the collective intelligence of the UN and beyond, PAGE prioritizes an upstream policy focus, shaping strategies that influence high-level decision-making and sustainable development globally.
Central to PAGE’s approach is supporting the offices of UN Resident Coordinators (UNRCOs) in strengthening capacities, encouraging South-South Collaboration, and facilitating peer-to-peer learning. This effort is enriched by the active involvement of PAGE agencies and strategic partners, who bring diverse perspectives and expertise. Gender considerations are integral to PAGE’s strategy, ensuring that policies are inclusive and leave no one behind.
Through these collaborative efforts, PAGE plays a pivotal role in shaping the international policy debate, driving forward the agenda for a sustainable, inclusive, green, and circular economy worldwide.
PAGE
PAGE improves cohesion and impact across the UN system in advancing the green economic transformation. In partnership with the UN Development Coordination Office (DCO), PAGE facilitates thematic global dialogues and targeted training programs for UNRCOs and other key stakeholders. Each activity is strategically designed to align with the PAGE Strategy Update, reinforcing PAGE’s commitment to a unified and effective approach to sustainable development.
Thematic dialogues
As part of its global support, PAGE, in collaboration with the UN Development Coordination Office (DCO), organizes the “One UN for Accelerating a Fair and Green Economic Transformation” Dialogue Series. Targeted primarily at RCO economists, these dialogues play a pivotal role in shaping international policy discussions on the inclusive green economy transition, especially amid global challenges. The dialogues align closely with PAGE’s updated strategy, emphasizing upstream policy approaches, South-South collaboration, strategic partnerships, and gender equality as essential for a fair and green transition.
Targeted trainings
PAGE and UNDCO provide a series of moderated in-depth online trainings on green economic transformation for PAGE and non-PAGE partner countries, targeting Government officials (in particular from Ministries of Economy, Finance, Labour and Development Planning), representatives of national think tanks and academic institutions, as well as RCO economists and other relevant stakeholders. The RCO Economists play a critical role in the programme as they help to identify country demand, coordinate with key national stakeholders and facilitate learning on site.
