The United Nations country team (UNCT) consists of all of the United Nations Agencies, Funds and Programmes present in a country. Its activities are coordinated by a Resident Coordinator (RC). RCs can concurrently serve as Humanitarian Coordinator (HC) responsible for coordinating the activities of the humanitarian country team. In the context of countries in which a structurally-integrated mission (whether peacekeeping or political) is deployed, one of the deputy heads of the mission concurrently serves as RC (and possibly also as HC).

Following the implementation of the development system reform, the Resident Coordinator System is now part of the United Nations Secretariat, and the work of RCs is coordiated by the Development Operations Coordination Office (DOCO).
