Relationship between stakeholders. All government institutions, as duty-bearers, are key partners for UN support to strengthen the Government’s adherence to its obligations and commitments under international conventions and other instruments of a binding or indicative nature. National civil society and international public, private and NGO sector stakeholders advance advocacy and accountability of the Government and the United Nations to meet global commitments. The key stakeholders for normative work, by category and role, are listed in Table 1 below. Table 1 – Key Stakeholders in the normative thematic area 5 Planned for 2018: ILO $550,000; OHCHR $250,000; UNDP $1mln; UNESCO $ 3,740,000; UNFPA $1,082,000; UNICEF $2.5mln; UNIDO $286,000; UNMAS $2,275,668; UN Women $1,365,843; UNEP under FSNL; IOM budgeted under Return & Reintegration; WHO budgeted under Health..
Relationship between stakeholders. Because of its intergovernmental nature with a mandate to support governments in areas that have political implications, the UN has built up years of experience in various countries and has access to global knowledge that it can bring to bear in support of the Government’s governance and rule of law programmes. The UN’s neutrality and the link between the UN’s programme and XXXXX’s political mandate, enables the UN to support the Government as it establishes a stable and legitimate state able to provide its citizens with security and a representative government which adheres to the rule of law and is able to deliver essential services. (For example, this link is made formal in the United Nations Electoral Support Project where UNAMA leads a combined effort in support of ensuring elections are Afghan led and Afghan owned, and are free, fair and inclusive.) The mission’s inclusion in one UN more broadly ensures that issues relating to support to the peace process, to establishing legitimate representative processes, and protecting human rights, for example, are integrated in UN agency programming. Moreover, the UN has the responsibility and legitimacy to support governments to adhere to international rights conventions. Finally, the UN has financial management and procurement mechanisms that can allow it to support government to access donor funding where the risks, political and in the form of the misappropriation of funds, are particularly high. The key stakeholders for Rule of Law, by category and role, are listed in Table 6. Table 6 – Key Stakeholders in Rule of Law Stakeholder Category Stakeholders Role National
