UNIDO Annual Report 2014

Following the adoption of the Lima Declaration: Towards Inclusive and Sustainable Industrial Development by the fifteenth session of the General Conference in December 2013, UNIDO began the year 2014—its first full year under the leadership of the new Director General—with three critical management goals: the positioning of the concept of inclusive and sustainable industrial development (ISID) in all processes leading to the formulation of the post-2015 development agenda; the operationalization of the new mandate of ISID given by the Lima Declaration; and the strengthening of management operations to optimize efficiency and effectiveness.
