Evaluation of the Development Coordination Office: contribution of the resident coordinator system to country-level programme coherence
Agency
United Nations Office of Internal Oversight Services

Overview

The Office of Internal Oversight Services (OIOS) has determined the extent to which resident coordinators have enabled greater coherence of United Nations country team programming at the country level in order to achieve the following two outcomes: (a) more coordinated United Nations operational activities for development; and (b) improved integrated United Nations policy advice to host Governments, in terms of relevance and effectiveness, to accelerate Member State progress towards the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals. For the evaluation, OIOS collected data using surveys, interviews, direct observation and document analyses. Two and a half years after the introduction of the reform of the resident coordinator system, the coherence of United Nations country-level programming has largely been achieved. United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Frameworks were highly aligned with national development needs and priorities and based on collective agency comparative advantages. Measures of programming coherence – including better United Nations country team engagement on outcome area planning, more efficient country team interactions and less programming duplication – were reported by government representatives, resident coordinators and country team members as having improved. The contributions of the resident coordinator system included independent leadership and an important convening role for the resident coordinator, the identification of programming result areas, the use of instruments introduced with the reform and a focus by resident coordinators on higher-level strategic issues. Country-level integration of non-resident agencies was still evolving.
