AIDED PROGRESS

Sustainable development is the bottomline of a new package by the UN Development
programme's (UNDP) Country Cooperation Framework
for Bhutan. The US $33 million-package will be used in
programmes for sustainable livelihoods, governance and
environment between the years 1997 and 2001. Under
these programmes, UNDP will focus on management and
decentralisation of development projects to assist the
government in planning, managing and implementing
development activities.
