This document provides a final report on a UN consultancy to support Fiji's institutional capacity for implementing and monitoring its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). Key challenges identified include a lack of SDG data for Fiji and no formal process for approving a Sustainable Development Coordination Committee. The consultancy proposed workshops to share best practices and develop an action plan. Key recommendations are to standardize SDG reporting templates, formalize intergovernmental reporting mechanisms, leverage independent oversight, adopt digital solutions for SDG data, and develop a multi-stakeholder inclusion strategy. The workshops will help Fiji adapt learning to strengthen its "Whole of Government" SDG system and institutional effectiveness, accountability and inclusiveness. The outcome
PRESENTATION for UN DESA Water Energy SDGs Interlinkages Evaluation Report Ju...Aashish "Aash" Mishra
This evaluation report summarizes the findings of an evaluation of the Sustainable Water and Energy Solutions project. The evaluation assessed the project's approach, methodology, effectiveness, efficiency and sustainability. Overall, the project was found to be highly relevant and effective in establishing partnerships, building capacity, and enhancing knowledge sharing. However, it faced some challenges with delays, integrating gender considerations, and clearly defining outcomes. The report provides recommendations on how future projects can improve planning, governance, resource mobilization and periodic evaluations to ensure goals are met. Continuing the partnership between UN DESA and Itaipu Binacional could leverage their respective expertise to further support sustainable development.

Writing2 AMishra World Bank Policy Advisory Note: India - Maharashtra Housing...Aashish "Aash" Mishra
The document provides a summary and analysis of the Government of Maharashtra's "Draft State Housing Policy" from November 2006. It discusses the policy's goals of improving housing and tenure security for slum communities. It analyzes specific sections of the policy related to slum upgrading, redevelopment, and tenure reforms. It notes both positive aspects, such as improving infrastructure and housing quality, but also ambiguities around resettlement, tenure transfer models, and lack of individual home ownership options. It recommends alternative approaches that emphasize more equitable resettlement with improved compensation, as well as tenure models that provide individual home deeds and mortgages to support home ownership.
