UN Jamaica Country Team Implements Reform
The UNCT and the UN RC report to the host government, in this case, the Government of Jamaica, on the implementation of the UN’s country programming framework.
The UN Resident Coordinator post is now independent, impartial and empowered to lead UN Country Team on joint coordinated action on the Sustainable Development Goals
The UN RC post is the highest-ranking member of UN Country Teams, reporting to the Secretary General and heading a new revitalized UN Resident Coordinator’s Office
The UN Resident Coordinator’s Office, which was once jointly administered by UNDP has been separated from UNDP and strengthened with five core functions to support the UNCT and the government advance action on the Sustainable Development Goals in line with national priorities
A reinforced Management and Accountability Framework will hold the members of the UN Country Team, including the Resident Coordinator, accountable for their contribution to the work of the team in support of Jamaica’s priorities related to Agenda 2030.
