The United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) is the leading global authority on the environment. UNEPs mission is to inspire, inform, and enable nations and peoples to improve their quality of life without compromising that of future generations. UNEP works on delivering transformational change for people and nature by drilling down on the root causes of the three planetary crises of climate change, nature and biodiversity loss, and pollution and waste. UNEP employs seven interlinked subprograms for action: Climate Action, Chemicals and Pollutions Action, Nature Action, Science Policy, Environmental Governance, Finance and Economic Transformations, and Digital Transformations. UNEPs work is focused on helping countries transition to low-carbon and resource-efficient economies, strengthening environmental governance and law, safeguarding ecosystems, and providing evidence-based data to inform policy decisions. UNEP provides information and data on the global environment to stakeholders including governments, non-governmental organizations, and the public for them to engage in realizing the Sustainable Development Goals. UNEP is the co-chair and a founding partner for the Platform for Accelerating the Circular Economy, which is a public-private partnership of over 50 global organizations and governments seeking to support the transition to a global circular economy.
