The second part is focused on the fieldwork and the project management of the United Nations, through country cases, and analysis of projects and programs, in order to understand the constraints of a real-effectiveness of UN interventions in the developing countries, providing finally, some insights on the new lines of action that guide the United Nations in promoting development.
