  1. Results-Based Management (RBM) and the UNDAF Results Matrix

  2. 2 Mandatory Steps 1. Road Map 3. Strategic Planning

  3. 3 RBM in practice 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map In your table groups, discuss and agree… What are the 3 main issues you are facing in understanding or applying RBM? - one concern per card Pink

  4. 4 Strategic UNDAF 3. Strategic Planning • Clearly linked to and based on the analysis; • Based on comparative advantages; • Focused on a relatively few issues to provide critical mass of support – succinct, analytical • Results well crafted and measurable; • Manageable in terms of capacity to deliver and in terms of numbers of indicators; • Your ideas?

  5. 5 Types of Change 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map Changes in the lives of people Impact Institutional Change and institutional performance ... Behavioural change:, practices (individual level) Outcome Output Operational Change: products and services - knowledge, skills, capacities

  6. 6 Results-Chain 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map effectiveness efficiency Inputs Activities Outputs Outcomes Impact Indicators Assumptions/Risks

  7. 7 Linkage between HRBA and RBM 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • Outputs – capacities of rights holders and duty bearers improved • Outcomes – behavior/performance of duty bearers in fulfillment of rights improved • Impacts – Rights are realized

  8. 8 Typical pitfalls 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • Wordy (..and no change language) To promote equitable economic development and democratic governance in accordance with international norms by strengthening national capacities at all levels and empowering citizens and increasing their participation in decision-making processes • Too ambitious Strengthened rule of law, equal access to justice and the promotion of rights • Containing multiple results The state improves its delivery of services and its protection of rights—with the involvement of civil society and in compliance with its international commitments

  9. 9 Typical pitfalls 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • Wordy (..and no change language) To promote equitable economic development and democratic governance in accordance with international norms by strengthening national capacities at all levels and empowering citizens and increasing their participation in decision-making processes • Too ambitious Strengthened rule of law, equal access to justice and the promotion of rights • Containing multiple results The state improves its delivery of services and its protection of rights—with the involvement of civil society and in compliance with its international commitments

  10. 10 Typical pitfalls 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • Wishy-washy, not a result (ie. Support provided to improve..) Support to institutional capacity building for improved governance • So general, they could mean anything To promote sustainable development and increase capacity at municipal level • Overlapping with National goals/ MDGs (impacts) Substantially reduce the level of poverty and income inequality in accordance with the MDGs and PRSP • Confusing means and ends Strengthen the protection of natural resources through the creation of an enabling environment that promotes sound resources management

  11. 11 Examples of Results Statements 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • At the UNDAF Outcome Level: • By 2013, citizens in focus districts have greater access to high quality Emergency Obstetric Care. • Government has policies and institutions in place to realize its gender equality commitment. • Vulnerable population in food insecure districts have better access to food; • Greater access and equity in health services for adolescent and vulnerable groups.

  12. 12 More Examples… 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map At the Output level: • Improved human and technical capacity to provide comprehensive Emergency obstetric care by municipal health authorities. • Rural medical centers have Emergency Obstetric Care Kits in stock. • Strengthened national capacity to develop and implement a human resource development plan for safe motherhood. • Increased number of development strategies (PRSP, SWAPs) incorporate gender equality in line with national commitments to women’s empowerment (i.e. MDGs), Human Rights and regional human rights commitments.

  13. Assumption: A Definition 13 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • A necessary condition for the achievement of results at different levels. • Part of the cause-effect logic • Stated as though it is actually the case • Can help identify additional results or outputs

  14. Risk: A Definition 14 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map • A potential event or occurrence beyond the control of the programme that could adversely affect the achievement of the desired results • A threat to success • Not just the negative of an assumption • A trigger for reconsideration of strategic direction

  15. Assumptions and Risks 15 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map Increased standards of living among fishing communities Rate of fishing is sustainable then Inflation reduces value of income Family & company incomes increase from previous year and if if then There is good distribution system and if Unable to comply with international food regulations if

  16. 16 Management Aspects 3. Strategic Planning • Monitoring and annual review at the output level to ensure we making progress toward the outcomes • Assessment, MTR (where applicable) and Evaluation at the Outcome level • Using good, cost effective practices to leverage government and donor resources • Reporting on results not just activities

  17. Formulating the UNDAF Matrix

  18. 18 UNDAF Results Matrix 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map

  19. 19 UNDAF Results Matrix 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map

  20. A Country Analysis -> UNDAF 1a -> CPDs -> CPAPs/Ag. Programmes-> AWPs 20 Results Flow 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map B Country Analysis -> UNDAF 1a -> CPDs -> UNDAF Action Plan-> AWPs C Country Analysis -> UNDAF 1b -> CPDs -> CPAPs/Ag. Programmes-> AWPs D Country Analysis -> UNDAF 1b -> CPDs -> UNDAF Action Plan-> AWPs

  21. 21 UNDAF Action Plan 3. Strategic Planning 1. Road Map Key Features: • Complements UNDAF with a common operational plan • Specifies strategies used to deliver UNDAF results • Replaces Country Programme Action Plans • It’s voluntary

  22. 22 UNDAF Action Plan 3. Strategic Planning • Sets out how the UNCT will provide support from all members of the UN family that have a role to play in the country. • Brings all UNCT members together under one nationally-owned strategy that draws on the full range of UN expertise. • Jointly prepared by the Government and the UNCT by taking national priorities and identifying where the individual skills, assets, knowledge and other UN system resources can best support those priorities • Makes the UNDAF operational • Can combine both individual agency programmes and joint programmes.

  23. 23 Outcome Only Option 1a 3. Strategic Planning Strategic Focus / Accountability / Concise Format / Validity: Issues to consider No substitute for outputs No substitute for prioritization Risk of disconnected results chain

  24. 24 Option 1a 3. Strategic Planning Outcome Only + UNDAF Action Plan Outcome Only + CPAPs This scenario represents the least intensive form of UNCT joint programming Issues to consider: Risk of disconnected results chain: Robust monitoring: Transaction costs: • Transparency • Accountability • Simplification • Coherence • Enhanced Monitoring • Predictability Issues to consider: • Seamless process • Commitment to UN coherence • Transaction costs

  25. 25 This option represents the conventional format of the UNDAF results matrix‘Transparency + AccountabilityPrioritization Transaction Costs 3. Strategic Planning CPAPs (or equivalent) UNDAF Action Plan Duplication: • Risk of disconnected results chain

  26. 26 Should my UNCT consider adopting an UNDAF Action Plan? 3. Strategic Planning • Is the Government taking the lead in requesting and owning the process? • Is the UNCT fully on board and ready to commit agency resources and time to making it happen? • Are the Regional Office and/or HQ in the loop and ready to provide the necessary support? • Is there adequate capacity in the RC office to manage the transition? • Who are the Resident Donors in-country? Are there any strong supporters of UN coherence • Are there any other in-country experiences in coordination which can offer insight

  28. 28 Common Budgetary Framework 3. Strategic Planning • Is the financial mechanism that supports the UNDAF Action Plan • Creates a holistic financial picture of available and required resources in support of the UNDAF Action Plan • Forms the basis of the DaO/One UN Fund by identifying funding gaps and pools “supplementary resources” in support of the UNDAF Action Plan • Provides a basis for allocating resources, setting priorities and mobilizing resources to cover any gaps in funding

  29. 29 Common Budgetary Framework 3. Strategic Planning UNDAF Action Plan Existing Funding (core / assessed) Existing Funding (non-core / extra budgetary) Funding Gap
