Implementation Guidelines for MDG Achievement Fund Joint Programmes
Summary
The following MDG-F guidelines were drafted in response to the demand from UN participating organizations and their national counterparts, to consolidate experiences on joint programmes and provide guidance on joint programmes and implementation at the national level. The guidelines reflect lessons learned from our partners at the country level (including national governments at the central, regional and municipal levels, UNCT, UN agencies, civil society organizations) as well as the philosophy of the Fund, and ultimately aim to guide the implementation of MDG-F financed joint programmes. At the centre of this exercise is the ambition to improve the ability of the UN to deliver results that support national development outcomes, while placing greater emphasis on government leadership and commitment.
