United Nations partnership
UNDP in Uzbekistan and other UN agencies, present in the country, work to assist the Government in meeting the development challenges of Uzbekistan. UN Country Team (UN CT) does so through a set of projected development results, which are reflected in the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF).
The United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) is a common strategic plan for the United Nations in Uzbekistan over the period 2010-2015. It is the result of consultative process to analyze how the United Nations can most effectively respond to Uzbekistan’s national priorities and needs. It is guided by the commitments of the Millennium Declaration as well as by the national Welfare Improvement Strategy (WIS) 2008-2010 and other national documents. The UNDAF 2010-2015 identified four priority areas where the United Nations can make a contribution. These are:
UNDAF 2010-2015 has four main outcomes, which are: OUTCOME 1:Economic well-being of vulnerable groups is improved (residents of economically underdeveloped, mainly rural areas; women, particularly home-based workers; labour migrants and their families; children, particularly most-at-risk adolescents; the elderly; HIV- positive people; and people with disabilities).OUTCOME 2:Enhanced access to and utilization of relevant, quality essential social services (education, health, nutrition, STI/HIV/drug use prevention, social protection of children and Early Childhood Development).OUTCOME 3:Integrate the principles of sustainable development into country policies and programmes.OUTCOME 4:Effectiveness, inclusiveness and accountability of governance at the central and local levels enhanced.UN Agencies’ Cooperation The UNDAF outlines the UN strategy for Uzbekistan and how the UN agencies will work together in a collaborative and mutually supporting way, also in a focused, targeted manner according to the mandate of each agency. Almost all of the UNDAF outcomes are shared between at least two or more agencies. This not only allows for synergy between individual agencies, but also avoids possible duplication or unnecessary overlap. UN Theme Groups were created to coordinate operations of the UN agencies in Uzbekistan. The UN Theme Group on HIV/AIDS provides within each UNDAF outcome a structure enabling various agencies to coordinate United Nations support to the national response to HIV/AIDS and support an expanded multi-sectoral response to the epidemic. For more information see Joint Programme Project Document. Likewise, the UN Resident Coordinator System integrates and mainstreams human rights and gender concerns into UN programming through all five UNDAF outcomes and serves as the main cooperation strategy for the UNCT in the field of identification, implementation and monitoring of UN joint programming. The MDG team composed of national MDG experts provides specialized and expert advice in the identification of nationalized targets and indicators and at a later stage, of localization and monitoring of MDGs. The UNCT ensures that the work carried out by the MDG Team is streamlined into the UNDAF and through it into the country programmes, down to programme and project interventions for a full alignment of country programmes and national priorities with the MDGs.
