One Programme Vision: one common programme of support to the national development agenda, inclusive of the contribution of all UN agencies, which is aligned with national priorities and supports attainment of national and international development goals The One Programme: Should demonstrate the ability of the UN to adapt to the DBS environment Should be realistic and not be too ambitious - focus on strategic sub-set of achievable results Should not be “fund-driven”

One Programme (cont.) UNDAF: the Strategic Framework Consists of four pillars of cooperation, including all UN agencies: Governance, Human Capital, HIV/AIDS, Economic Development All UN agencies are committed to the achievement of the full UNDAF Delivering as One: Operational Plan of the UN System in Mozambique, Aims to: Ensure attainment of all the results contained in the UNDAF, and Pave the way for a reformed UN under the next cycle, by focusing on a strategic sub-set of UNDAF outputs that best illustrate the added value of the UN in the new aid environment and in the overall development context of Mozambique

Eight areas of UN comparative advantage identified in the UNDAF:  advocacy for UN core values, including human rights, gender equality and the MDGs;  normative and technical advisory services;  strengthening of national capacity at both central and decentralised levels;  support to national scale-up of evidence-based programmes;  implementation services;  support to national humanitarian response;  bringing the voice of civil society to the table;  building partnerships between all stakeholders.

Key Principles for Joint Programmes The joint programmes (JPs) under the selected outputs should reflect a combination of the four focus areas and demonstrate how the UN family will work together more coherently and effectively in these four areas to achieve results the JPs should build on existing activities/programmes; the JPs should, as far as possible, fall under one primary UNDAF pillar; the JPs should address a number of UNDAF outputs selected as priority outputs of the One Programme the JPs should, in principle and to the extent possible, be at least one third funded; the JPs should include three or more agencies.
