Overview of the Process and Expected Outcomes Presentation to the UN CT By: UNAIDS UCC, {insert country name} UNAIDS Regional Support Team East and Southern Africa May 2006 Rapid mapping/inventory of UN human and financial resources devoted to support the response to HIV and AIDS in {insert country name}
Background and Objectives of Resource Mapping Exercise • Includehere the recommendation made specifically to the country to conduct assessment • Immediate objective of the exercise is to map UN technical staff and financial resources allocated to support the national response to HIV/AIDS in {insert country name}. • The findings will feed into the discussion of the UN CT on division of labour and contribute to formation of one joint UN HIV/AIDS programme and one Joint UN Team on AIDS.
Expected Outcomes of the mapping exercise • Enhanced capacity of UN agencies to track UN country-level resources • Report on UN HIV resources in {insert country name} (1) UN technical staff allocated to HIV/AIDS • Number of full-time staff; part-time staff and TA • Staff areas of expertise/skills: both generalist and specific skills related to HIV/AIDS that are available within agencies • % of agency technical staff working on HIV/AIDS (2) UN Financial Resources allocated to HIV/AIDS (Time series data): • Total UN Spending on HIV/AIDS • Agency/Organisation commitments and spending on HIV/AIDS • Resource contribution of the UN to each area of the NSP (Prevention, treatment, M&E etc.) • % of UN Agency’s total budget that goes to HIV/AIDS programmes • UN HIV/AIDS resources earmarked for HIV/AIDS for 2006 • Establish resource contribution of the UN to national AIDS spending (% of the pie) (3) To map geographical spread of UN supported agencies (Who, What, Where) • Power point presentation on UN HIV Resources
Methodology for conducting the resource mapping exercise • Resource mapping exercise will be facilitated by UNAIDS with TA from RST (M&E Advisor). • The exercise is based on an Assessment tool developed by the RST/ESA • Key Sources of data: • UN-ISPs • Previous and Current UNDAF • HIV/AIDS focal points completing the Assessment Tool in all UN Agencies/ Organisations in-country • Data Collection time-frame: 2 weeks
UNCT Guidance on the following: • Whether mapping should reflect resources spent on salaries and TA in area of HIV/AIDS - assist in reflecting the UN’s non-monetary contribution • Clear concept definitions: • Definition of a focal point person on full-time basis e.g.Focal point person on a full-time basis is contracted directly by the organization for the organization (should not include NGO staff) and allocates between 70% -100% of their time on HIV/AIDS. • Definition of a focal point person on part-time basis e.g. Focal point person on a part-time basis is contracted directly by the organization for the organization (should not include NGO staff) and allocates between 20%- 69% of their time on HIV/AIDS activities. • Definition of TA? • Definition of “indirect” support to HIV/AIDS • How to analyze/quantify value added of capacity building and training provided by UN in various areas • Agree on time series of data to be collected e.g. 2002. 2003, 2004 etc - align with previous UNDAF??
Proposed Next Steps • UN HIV/AIDS TWG meeting to discuss resource mapping exercise • UNAIDS UCC introduces the Resource mapping tool • TWG agrees on data collection methodology • TWG agrees on a schedule for mapping exercise – submission of data, data validation meeting etc. • UNAIDS UCC presents proposed schedule and definitions for consideration and approval by the CMT • HIV/AIDS Focal points hold internal consultations collect, validate (critical to get agency sign-off on data) and submit data to UNAIDS • UN TWG meeting to discuss preliminary findings and data gaps (with assistance of M&E Advisor ½ day) • UNAIDS synthesizes, packages data and prepares Power point (with assistance of M&E Advisor – 2 ½ days) • Circulate draft data and power point to UN HIV/AIDS TWG • UN TWG meeting to discuss and validate data • UNAIDS UCC prepares draft report (based on outline provided) • UNAIDS UCC shares report with UNCT • UN CT meeting to discuss findings of the mapping exercise
