Mobilize and leverage adequate resources
In 2022, and despite an unprecedented Humanitarian, political, economic and women’s rights crisis, UN Women ACO succeeded in both strengthening its existing partnerships and expanding its donors portfolio.
Over 110 million USD in commitments and contributions were raised from 18 donors, including 10 new donors (confirmed and prospective).
UN Women ACO has also explored non-funding and technical partnerships opportunities with non-traditional donors (mainly International Finance Institutions) , including with the World Bank, the Asian Development Bank and the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA).
This success results from a threefold approach:
Effective leverage of UNW’s coordination mandate and key role in several UN mechanisms, including its co-leadership of the Gender & Human Rights Strategic and Working Group (STWG), which is the UN’s main platform for human and women rights in Afghanistan comprised of over 20 different UN, Member States and International Finance Institutions (IFIs);
Clear and results oriented Resource Mobilization and partnerships approach, inclusive of an evidence-based mapping, targeted outreach plan, and prioritized engagement approach. The 2022 Resource Mobilization and Partnerships plan have guided the ACO’s outreach and engagement efforts and driven a targeted and therefore efficient partnerships approach;
Strong internal coordination and leverage of UNW internal partnerships expertise at country, regional and HQ levels. The ACO partnerships team has closely coordinated with partnerships focal points in RO and HQ to provide regular update on the partnerships needs, discuss potential engagement opportunities to leverage (e.g. annual consultations with major donors at HQ), and align on best practices
