Over the past 32 years, this collaboration has mobilized nearly USD 4 billion in public investments, delivering estimated savings of 20% and supporting progress toward the Sustainable Development Goals. In Ecuador, UNOPS works with national partners to enhance access to essential services, with a focus on health, urban mobility, and sustainable development, through public infrastructure modernization and the strategic procurement of goods and services.
