The United Nations Country Team (UNCT) is an inter-agency body which consists of the representatives of 24 UN funds, programs, and specialized agencies working in China.
Under the leadership of the Resident Coordinator, the UNCT provides overall leadership to the work of agencies in the country. It serves as a platform for individual agencies to formulate common positions on strategic issues, ensure coherence in action and advocacy, and to plan and deliver work together. The UNCT also partners closely with the government and other humanitarian and development actors.
