In Development
For years I (@JTHundp) have been casting weekly e-mail messages to colleagues of the United Nations Development Programme (@UNDP) on topical issues of development, resilience and recovery in Nigeria, Syria, Ukraine and Yemen. Presented by a wannabee radio news-maker and anchor (OOG Omroep Groningen https://www.oogtv.nl/, The Netherlands), this podcast hopes to inform, inspire and stir the pot for UNDP colleagues and other humanitarian and development professionals.

Following the peace agreement for Yemen negotiated in Stockholm late last year, UNDP immediately established a sub-office in Al Hodeidah with programmatic interventions in peace-related areas of: local security, mine action, support to port management as well as in employment and livelihoods. In November 2019 Joerg Kuehnel and Agnes Kochan (from UNDP's Pakistan office) conducted a so-called After-Action Review and recommend improvements for UNDP's future SURGE practice.
