UNDP percaya bahwa kepemilikan program dan proyek yang kami dukung berada di tangan masyarakat Indonesia. Oleh karena itu, semua program UNDP secara aktif mempromosikan semangat saling menghormati, mendukung, dan bertanggung jawab serta menganut prinsip kepemilikan nasional sebagaimana tercantum dalam Komitmen Jakarta - deklarasi yang diajukan oleh pemerintah dan para mitra pembangunan pada tahun 2009 untuk meningkatkan efektivitas bantuan di Indonesia. Dalam semangat kepemilikan nasional, semua bantuan UNDP di Indonesia dilaksanakan oleh entitas nasional, termasuk kementerian/lembaga dan Kementerian Perencanaan dan Pembangunan Nasional, dan di tingkat daerah oleh pemerintah provinsi dan kabupaten serta kelompok masyarakat.
Sementara setiap program yang didukung UNDP memiliki tujuan yang spesifik dan beragam, pengembangan kapasitas adalah satu tujuan yang dimiliki oleh semua program UNDP di Indonesia dan di seluruh dunia. Pengembangan kapasitas mengambil banyak bentuk termasuk reformasi kelembagaan, pengembangan kepemimpinan, pendidikan dan pelatihan untuk anggota masyarakat seperti jurnalis dan komunitas perempuan. Sejalan dengan logika ini, para pakar UNDP bekerja berdampingan dengan para mitra di Indonesia antara lain untuk menguatkan kapasitas dalam hal-hal teknis, perumusan kebijakan dan perencanaan anggaran.
