Background
As a trusted multilateral partner serving 177 countries and territories around the world, UNDP is uniquely positioned to help advocate for change, connect countries to the knowledge and resources they need to develop and to coordinate the efforts of the United Nations at the country level.
The Results-Based Management (RBM) strategy of the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) is a comprehensive approach to planning, implementing, monitoring, and evaluating development programmes, portfolios, and projects. RBM focuses on achieving measurable results and impacts by improving, with other internal interventions, the organization’s effectiveness, accountability, and ability to be agile and anticipatory in achieving greater development impact.
There are three areas of focus for the RBM Strategy:
• To provide guidance in the RBM approach of UNDP on a digital platform,
• To update and integrate the PPM policies with the RBM approach as required,
• To provide practice building through a dedicated RBM Hub.
The Strategic Plan (2022- 2025) commits UNDP to “investing in enabling capacities and approaches that can scale up development impact… to build the agile, anticipatory organization its partners expect”. The Strategic Plan further commits UNDP to: “Impact measurement: traditional, linear results-based management has not evolved to measure new ways of working and the outcomes of a portfolio approach. Work is underway to develop systems of monitoring, evaluation, and results measurement better suited to these new ways of working, that value learning as results, and can track transformative change and its enablers, like changing social norms, over longer timespans.” (Para 82)
The upgrade of the RBM strategy, with UNDP investments in People, Digital, Knowledge, Enterprise Risk Management, and Quantum amongst others, will be a significant drive towards achieving this vision in UNDP and, through a holistic approach for all six areas of investment, transforming UNDP into a more agile and anticipatory organization geared towards development impact.
The roll out of the RBM Strategy calls for a rigorous engagement approach which this internship opportunity will coordinate.
