UNDP is thrilled to announce the Undergraduate Essay Competition 2025. Students are invited to participate in this UNDP Essay contest by sharing their ideas and suggesting ways that how tax laws in Nigeria can help the country to move closer to achieving the SDGs. United Nations Development Program (UNDP) is committed to generate new ideas and increase public awareness to support the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
UNDP ensures a future that provides equality, dignity, and opportunity for everyone. It also tries to improve the lives of Nigerians, especially the most marginalized and underprivileged people. UNDP is an international organization which collaborates with the federal government of Nigeria, development partners, UN agencies, civil society, and local communities. They all work together to identify local solutions to meet national and international development challenges through a variety of interventions.
This international essay contest’s primary goal is to engage undergraduate students in critical thinking about how commerce, taxes, and sustainable development are related to one another. By participating in this international competition, students will get a greater understanding of public finance and how it affects the social, economic, and environmental aspects of sustainable development.
