2013 – 2016 Intersessional Programme Design Process CEESP Steering Committee January 2011
The intersessional programme • Regulation 2: … “IUCN shallpursueits objectives through an integrated programme of activities, formulated, coordinated and implemented by the Members and components of IUCN ” • Programme ismandatedin out statutesand regulations • It is a union-widedesigned and implemented programme • Statute 20e:… [The functions of the World Congressshallbeinter alia..]....“to consider and approve the programme and financial plan for the perioduntil the nextordinary session of the World Congress” • The mandate to implement the content of anyspecificintersessional programme of workcanonly come from the Members
Trends in intersessional programming (ISP) • Before WCC 2 (Amman) ISP: • wasloose and unstructured – de facto severalprogrammingframeworks. • lacked synergies between IUCN components • 1998 / 1999 crisisled to first focused effort for a more structuredapproach • By WCC 3 (Bangkok) • agreed to operateunder a “one programme” framework • althoughprogress 2005 – 2008 sawincreasingdonor critique that IUCN wasunable to demonstrateresults and no cleardemonstration of conservation interventions thatimprovedhuman-wellbeing • By WCC 4 (Barcelona) • shift to results-basedprogramming • greateremphasis on adhering to value proposition • significantlysharper programme focus • re-organised programme structure

Preparation of 2013-16 component plans • Each component of IUCN prepares a component programme plan, following the same basic rules: • The document must contain a clear situation analysis (diagnosis) and justification for the results which are proposed; • The proposed results should align with the Global Programme Areas and Results; • The results must actually be results-based, indicating a clear change in policy, governance or behaviour in an intended audience (policy platform, government, person or organization); • The results must specify targets and indicators of success.
Identifying means to achieve ends • The means (or sub-results) shows how the result will be achieved. • In IUCN’s case, this is a combination of different aspects of the value proposition and other strategies commonly used: • Trusted knowledge, but also what kind of knowledge, packaged in what way? • Convening and partnerships: who can IUCN bring together, particularly those who would not normally convene? • Global to local to global reach: how can IUCN leverage its reach, its experience outside of this region, to bring to bear on the issue? • Standards and practices: deployment of tied and tested tools and approaches • Also • Empowerment and capacity building
Indicators of success • A well formed result will immediately suggest an indicator • Indicators should be: • S - specific • M - measurable • A – achievable and appropriate • R – realistic and reliable • T – time-bound • IUCN often focuses results on policy changes, so it is important to identify indicators that capture: • The qualitative change in the policy that IUCN wants – e.g. Does it refer to IUCN positions or advice regarding biodiversity conservation?
Leverage the existing network model for IUCN’s thematic work Capacity Building (CEC) Gender REDD Co-ordinator • ImplementationNetworks • Vehicle for delivery of thematic (sub)-results, e.g. REDD, EbA, Policy, Gender, Social Safeguards • Designed to implement the one programme across Commissions, National Committees, Secretariat Core Group • Climate Change Core Group • 8 people: Commissions, Council, Regional and HQ Secretariat, • Function:- Overalladvice & quality assurance on programme alignment and delivery Implementing Networks
Timelines and deliverables • A CEESP representative attends programme writing week (24th Jan) • Make sure that CEESP successes are recognised and reported in the 2009 – 2010 IUCN programme report • Map ongoing activities in CEESP and identify institutional partners with similar needs / priorities in other commissions / secretariat regions and global thematics • Identify list of 6 to 10 candidate results justified by alignment with global results (2013 – 2016) – optimise synergies where possible. • Draft of the CEESP 2013-16 component Programme is available for discussion by April • Use opportunity of the Regional Conservation Forum to reinforce mapping process and result identification process • Finalise the CEESP “2013 – 2016” component programme by October
