The United Nations Office at Nairobi (UNON) serves as the UN’s presence in Africa, established by the General Assembly in 1996 and based in Nairobi, Kenya. It operates as the representative office of the Secretary-General in the region, handling liaison and representation with permanent missions, the host country, and various governments and organizations within Nairobi, as well as coordinating with other UN entities in Kenya. The office functions within the non-profit sector, focusing on facilitating cooperation and collaboration across intergovernmental and non-governmental actors to support UN programs in the area. UNON is led by a Director-General at the Under-Secretary-General level and maintains its role through relationships with a range of partners, including state actors and regional bodies. Recent developments include workforce expansion at the Nairobi duty station, alongside ongoing partnerships and MOUs with regional organizations and entities to advance shared objectives in governance, development, and environmental initiatives in Africa.
