Joint M&E Challenges
• Lack of M&E capacity in the UN system
• Maintaining the implementation, results and reporting chain
• Activity based reporting on JPC results
• Multiple reporting requirements
• Financial reporting
• M&E of CCIs
• Low priority attached with M&E
14
Way Forward• RBM Training in July 2010
• Development of Monitoring plans in 2010
• Joint reviews for reporting and analyzing joint results
• Single template for AA and Joint Reports in 2010
• DaO MIS functional by mid 2010
• Alignment with national M&E system
• More emphatic lobbying and sensitization

Process of Un-earmarked Allocations – - a recent example
• $6 million un-earmarked received in the One Fund through the Expanded Funding Window (EFW).
• UNCT / Joint Programme Co-chairs discussed and finalized the JP wise distribution of funds. The JP allocations were made, keeping in view the key national priorities at the moment.
• The allocation was discussed with the EAD to seek their consent.• The Co-chairs and the participating agencies in consultation with the
respective line ministries put together joint proposals for the JPC-wise allocation of funds.
• The joint proposals submitted by each JPC were reviewed and endorsed by the One UN Executive Committee comprising of the three members; Secretary EAD, UNRC, and DFID as the donor rep.
• The JP Co-chairs based on the decisions of the One UN Executive Committee sent a formal request (signed by both Co-chairs) to the UNRC for the release of funds accordingly.
• RC directed the Administrative Agent (UNDP) and the funds were transferred to the participating agencies as per the agreed upon allocations.
