A major Public-Private Partnership project
The Diamniadio UNM is a project of the State of Senegal, represented by the Société de Gestion et d'Exploitation du Patrimoine Bâti de l'État (SOGEPA), under a Public Private Partnership (PPP) with the developer Envol Immobilier.

Envol Immobilier was responsible for designing, financing and building this large-scale project, making it available to the State of Senegal on a lease-purchase basis.

This project is part of the modernisation of the State's built heritage and the relocation of administrative services and public institutions to the Diamniadio Urban Pole.

Infrastructure to international standards
Built on a 13-hectare site made available by the Délégation Générale à la Promotion des Pôles Urbains de Diamniadio et du Lac Rose (DGPU), the MNU is designed to accommodate all 34 United Nations agencies present in Senegal, embodying the One UN vision.

Durable materials and a large reception capacity
The materials used meet the highest standards, guaranteeing durability over several decades.

All the technical equipment is highly efficient, reducing energy requirements and environmental impact.

The MNU can eventually accommodate more than 3,000 staff and 2,000 officials and visitors, providing a functional and welcoming space.
