This Guidance Note is part of a package of operational guidance material related to the UNDP Social and Environmental Standards (SES). Each of the guidance notes follows a similar structure to facilitate the ease in which users can find the information or guidance they are seeking. The package of guidance notes will develop over time and will include specific guidance on each of the SES Overarching Principles, Project-Level Standards, and elements of the Project Delivery Process (see key SES elements below).
