UNOPS team in China provides technical assistance and advisory services in the areas of project management, procurement, partnership development and institutional capacity strengthening. We work to support the Government of China, fostering global innovation and improving health, agricultural and food safety through the strategic support of projects.

UNOPS is working to upgrade agricultural and food industries using a range of techniques including capacity-building, promotion, and facilitating public-private partnerships contributing to the production of safe, trusted food in a clean environment.

We are also further helping create a global hub for innovation – a sustainable, equal and innovative ICT cluster. The Global Innovation Zone provides a forum and platform for creativity and new company creation.
