The United Nations Resident Coordinator system encompasses all organizations of the United Nations system dealing with operational activities for development, regardless of their formal presence in the country. The RC system aims to bring together the different UN agencies to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of operational activities at the country level. Resident Coordinators, who are funded and managed by UNDP, lead UN country teams in more than 130 countries and are the designated representatives of the Secretary-General for development operations. Working closely with national governments, Resident Coordinators and country teams advocate the interests and mandates of the UN drawing on the support and guidance of the entire UN family.

United Nations Development Assistance Framework 2005-2009 in Armenia
This first United Nations Development Assistance Framework for Armenia is aimed at establishing a common framework for all UN Agencies operating in the country. The UNDAF defines the areas where the UN's collective, coherent and integrated interventions will make a significant and strategic contribution towards addressing the economic, social, governance and environmental challenges facing the country. To support the national goals embodied in Armenia's poverty reduction strategy (PRSP), the United Nations has developed an assistance framework for the five-year period from 2005 to 2009. The main aim of the United Nations in its UNDAF is to reduce economic, social and political inequality.
