Some Famous People called John Hendra

John Hendra

John Hendra recently established his own consulting practice after retiring from a dynamic 32 year United Nations career as a development leader in both Headquarters and the field. Hendra recently served as a member of the High-Level Group to review the governance of The Commonwealth and is currently serving on: the Advisory Council to Canada's Development Finance Institution (FinDev Canada); on the board of Women Deliver Canada; and as an Associate Researcher with the German Development Institute (GDI).

Most recently, he served as UN Assistant Secretary General (ASG) and Senior UN Coordinator helping the UN Development System (UNDS) become more "fit for purpose" to support implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, including through the 2016 GA Resolution on the Quadrennial Comprehensive Policy Review (QCPR), the policy framework set out by Member States to guide the UNDS' support to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). In this role, he served as the UN Development Group ASG Co-Chair of the QCPR Coordinating Team, working directly with the UN Deputy Secretary General, Amina Mohammed, on the development of reform proposals for the UNDS.

As such, he played a key role in the preparation of UN Secretary-General Anotonio Gueterres’ two seminal reform reports on “Repositioning the UN Development System to Deliver on the 2030 Agenda” - Ensuring a Better Future for All (July 2017) and Our Promise for Dignity, Prosperity and Peace on a Healthy Planet (December, 2017). He also substantively supported the intergovernmental negotiations in the UN General Assembly on the repositioning of the UNDS which resulted in the landmark GA Resolution (72/279; May 2018) which has ushered in perhaps the most comprehensive reform of the UN Development System in decades. Over this period he also provided advisory support to the UNDG, to individual UN Agencies and to UN Resident Coordinators and UN country teams.

Prior to this position he served from 2011 to 2014 as UN assistant secretary-general and deputy executive director, policy and programme, at the United Nations Entity for Gender Equality and the Empowerment of Women (UN Women). He was appointed by the United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon on 11 March 2011. Hendra has also been closely involved in the process of formulating the 2030 Agenda, including as a member of the Informal Senior Coordination Group (2012-2014) and as co-chair of the UN Development Group's MDG Task Force. He also recently served as Co-Chair of the UN Leadership Group.
