Department of Economic and Social Aff airs
The Department of Economic and Social Aff airs of the United Nations Secretariat
is a vital interface between global policies in the economic, social and environmental
spheres and national action. The Department works in three main interlinked areas: (i) it
compiles, generates and analyses a wide range of economic, social and environmental data
and information on which Member States of the United Nations draw to review common
problems and to take stock of policy options; (ii) it facilitates the negotiations of Member
States in many intergovernmental bodies on joint courses of action to address ongoing or
emerging global challenges; and (iii) it advises interested Governments on the ways and
means of translating policy frameworks developed in United Nations conferences and
summits into programmes at the country level and, through technical assistance, helps
build national capacities.
