The review of the resident coordinator system: give UNDS reform a chance!

Weinlich, Silke (2021)
Externe Publikationen

These days, the United Nations (UN) General Assembly is tasked with fine-tuning a centrepiece of the reform: the strengthened Resident Coordinator system – key driver of a more cohesive UN Development System (UNDS) working towards a common agenda. Negotiations have yet to reach a break-through. Member states should do their part in supporting a more cohesive UNDS. They should improve the current funding model of the RC system and thereby support the repositioning efforts. Assessed contributions would be a clear sign that states step up to their collective responsibility.

Supporting South-South cooperation: three things the UN should keep in mind

Haug, Sebastian (2021)
Externe Publikationen

This week, the United Nations (UN) High-Level Committee on South-South Cooperation convenes in New York City, and virtually. For the first time in five years, member state representatives and UN officials gather in this setting to review and advise on how the UN system engages with South-South and triangular cooperation. This contribution discusses recent developments and suggests that delegates should encourage stakeholders to (1) be more explicit about what they mean by South-South cooperation; (2) carefully explore ways to expand UN engagement with triangular schemes; and (3) ask UN entities to focus more explicitly on what South-South stakeholders need and want.
