Strategic Plan Outcomes: Definition & key features The HIGH LEVEL RESULTS of UNCT action • Changes in institutional performance or behaviours • Strategic contribution to Government priorities • Focus on key priorities… No of outcomes depends on: • Challenges • UNCT comparative advantages • Alignment/ support of key stakeholders • Reflect a choice about strategy or policy Debatable & controversial.
Typical pitfalls • 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
Typical pitfalls • 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
