Jennifer Colville manages the United Nations Development Programme’s (UNDP) regional innovation portfolio in the Arab States. UNDP’s activities in the region are a response to geographical dynamics, with a specific focus on: resilience building as countries emerge from conflict; youth employment, particularly for young women; and climate change, particularly water management in response to the region’s high level of water scarcity. Jennifer talks with the OFID Quarterly’s Steve Hughes about innovation and shares an example project to demonstrate its importance and relevance.
