  6. Financing the One Programme Earmarked Donors’ Contributions Un-earmarked Donors’ Contributions JO AGENCIES’ HQs Transition Fund Joint Office Funds Other UN Agencies’ Resources ONE PROGRAMME Joint Office Activities

  7. The Transition Fund is the basis for mobilizing resources for the One Programme • Initial Contributions: • - Austria: 387 thousand USD-Spain: 4 Million USD- Norway: 1,4 Million USD Un-earmarked Donors’ Contributions Transition Fund 5,837,000 USD Expanded Window 2009 Spain United Kingdom Norway 1,018,000 USD

  8. Delivering as One: Issues • In 2009, the key priority was for the One UN Programme to be fully operational. While the Programme retained its focus on strengthening strategic support to the Country’s graduation process, it also paid special attention to the impact of the financial crisis on the country. • Steering Committee (Gov. Sivil Society, Municipalities and UN RC +2 No Donors = Most Vulnerable needs Special attention ( ex. WB + ADfB) • Being a late-starter among the pilots, DaO in CV is trying to make optimal use of the experience of the other Delivering as One pilot countries in aspects such as reporting, M&E framework and communication strategy. • The most significant result so far is the fact that 21 UN Agencies have come together under the DaO to bring additional resources and expertise to national priority objectives such as trade promotion, economic transformation and human security concerns such as combating narco-trafficking. This strong effort is expected to deliver concrete advancements in terms of development results from 2010.

  9. Delivering as One: Issues • The “Participating Agency” model implemented in the Delivering as One in Cape Verde has demonstrated its validity throughout the first year of the One Programme. The distinction between Resident and Non-Resident Agencies in the Country has been removed and replaced by the inclusive concept of “Participating Agency”, • out of 9 Sub-programmes, three are led by Agencies without a permanent presence in the Country (UNCTAD, UNIDO and UNESCO respectively), one is under the leadership of UNODC which has a National Programme Adviser and UNIFEM is leading (through a National Gender Adviser) together with OHCHR the cross cutting issues on Gender and Human Rights.

  10. Delivering as One: ISSUES • So far more coherent results in support of national priorities have mainly been achieved through the One Programme under the Joint Office, • Permanent Dialogue between Government and RC • National Ownership in the conception Work annual Planinng • The Integrated Framework has also been a good example of more coherent • programming under the broader Delivering as One, with the production of a • Joint Diagnostic Study on Cape Verde’s integration in the world economy.

  11. Challenges • Many Non Residents agencies • To Consider the Vulnerability of Cape Verde (7th most vulnerable in the World) • Limited access to funding (Expanded Window) • Phasing out of WFP • Coordination and harmonization of management instruments • Delays in fund disbursement • Monitoring and Evaluation
