In 2019, we strengthened our partnerships and deepened our work across Europe and Central Asia, the Middle East and North Africa, Sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America and the Caribbean, and the Asia-Pacific region. It illustrates some of our innovative approaches to new and emerging security challenges that characterize many of these regions, especially in states marked by conflict and fragility.
Thanks to our strong strategic relationships with bilateral partners and multilateral organizations such as the United Nations, the European Union, the Organization for Security and Co-operation in Europe, and the African Union we were able to carry out a variety of initiatives to improve and harmonize their SSG/R programming, particularly in the context of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.
