Established on 9 August 1973, the United Nations Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) is one of five regional commissions of the United Nations, which were created to fulfill the economic and social goals set out in the Charter by promoting cooperation and integration between countries in each region of the world.
 
ESCWA is mandated to support the economic and social development of its 20 member States, promote regional integration, and represent the concerns of those States on the global stage. It analyses socioeconomic conditions, links development knowledge to policy, and advises member States on how best to achieve inclusive and sustainable development.
 
ESCWA brings together policymakers, researchers, experts, and government and intergovernmental bodies to create consensus. On the ground, the Commission provides targeted advisory services to member States.
