UNIDO(United Nations lndustrial Development Organization) is one of the specialized agencies of the united Nations(UN), headquartered in Vienna, Austria. The organization was originally established as a UN department in 1966, and later became the 16th specialized agency of the UN in 1985.

UNIDO's mission is to help developing countries and countries with economies in transition in their fight against marginalization in today's globalized world. As part of the UN common system, UNIDO has responsibility for promoting industrialization throughout the developing world, in cooperation with its 173 Member States.

Dr.Kandeh Yumkella, the Director-General of UNIDO,reported in his "UNIDO Strategic Long-term vision Statement" that, in order to deal with the future challenges, the activities of UNIDO need to focus on the following three areas:
1.Poverty alleviation through productive activities;
2.Trade capacity-building;
