Improved management of financial and human resources in pursuit of results

There has been a significant probress on the implementation rate of the regular resources as of December 2023. Out of the US$1.4m regular resources budgeted for, US$1.1m has been utilised, having 77% implementation rate. However a significant amount of payroll costs has not been posted (US$130k). The CO will not meet the 100% implementation rate on regular resources because the the period, one position has been vacant thus for Programme Management Specialist hence these funds have not been utilised. In addition, 2 staff under IB were on detailed assignment hence the amount was not utilized. Implementation rate for the Country Office for the year is currently at 36.46% with Utilisation of 52.65%. Despite aadvancing significant amount to Women Resilient to Disaster partners, the significant progress was due to liquidation of outstanding advances especially for the Spotlight Initiative and UBRAF Project. However we anticipate the implementing rate of other resourses to be higher than that reflected as some costs, like payroll for staff funded by non-core have not been fully posted. Postings for payroll cost is continuing and once finalised, the implementation rate will change.
