| Contesto |
The UN development system (UNDS) comprises thirty-seven funds, programmes and specialized Agencies. Further reform steps are needed in order to adapt the work and functioning of the UN development system to the changing development landscape and the challenges the world is facing today. Strengthening UN coordination, through Delivering as One, shall reduce the fragmentation of the UN operational activities and thus increase the impact for the people on the ground. The main normative instrument for reforming the UN development system is the quadrennial comprehensive policy review (QCPR). Its full implementation shall contribute to allow the UN operational system to operate in a more coherent, effective and efficient manner to yield better development results. |
| Obiettivi |
Switzerland wants to foster development impact of UN development assistance through improved coherence, efficiency and effectiveness of the UN development system. This shall be achieved as a result of the full and timely implementation of the mandates contained in the Quadrennial Comprehensive Policy Review (QCPR). |
| Gruppi target |
The main partners are the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs (UN DESA), UN inter-agency bodies such as the UN Development Operations Coordination Office (UN DOCO) (inter alia through the United Nations Country Coordination Fund UNCCF) and the Chief Executive Board CEB with one of its three pillars, namely the UN Development Group (UNDG). The proposed support eventually benefits the United Nations development system (UNDS) as a whole, in particular SDC’s priority Funds and Programmes UNDP, UN Women, UNFPA and UNICEF, and thus the recipient (countries and individuals) of support from the UNDS. |
