Assistance Strategy
Based on the One Budgetary Framework the Mozambique One UN Fund has been established with a two-fold objective: to support the coherent resource mobilisation, allocation and disbursement of donor resources to the joint programmes identified in the Delivering as One: Operational Plan for the United Nations in Mozambique, 2007-2009 (the One UN Plan), and to provide support to the One UN Change Management initiatives necessary to operationalise the One UN including providing funding for the implementation of the Communicating as One strategy.
Bridging the funding gap in joint programmes
The Mozambique One UN Fund is a vehicle for new resources pooled by donors to support the unfunded part of the joint programmes introduced in the One UN Programme: Operational Plan of the UN system in Mozambique (2007-2009). The financial resources required for the eleven Joint Programmes are summarised in the Operational Plan with details on the funding available for each Joint Programmes as well as the remaining financial resources requirements, with a breakdown per UNDAF pillar and per UN Agency.
Supporting the change management process
Transformation requires resources, both human and financial. Adequate resources are required to support the coordination of the 'Delivering as One UN' pilot. A portion of the funds allocated to the Mozambique One UN Fund will be earmarked for this purpose, and to specifically support interventions outlined in the Implementation Plan. These resources will serve to support One Office and common service initiatives, allocate funding for staff to empower RCO office in the transition period, and fund the implementation of the Delivering as One UN Communication Strategy, which has been developed to support the implementation of the Delivering as One UN Plan, and ensure a continuous and systematic sharing of information.
