Day 2.3 - SWA’s role in improving aid effectiveness in the WASH sectorsanitationandwater4all
This document discusses strengthening country processes to improve aid effectiveness in the WASH (water, sanitation, and hygiene) sector. It provides examples from Liberia and Niger of strengthening sector policies, coordination, financing, and monitoring. Lessons are drawn from the education and health sectors, such as using compacts to outline mutual accountability and linking partnerships to aid effectiveness principles. A funding cliff is predicted for 2015 as available financing declines sharply without sustained commitments. The role of the Sanitation and Water for All partnership in addressing these challenges is highlighted.

This document discusses approaches to results-based management (RBM) among development cooperation providers. It finds that while providers have varying RBM approaches, they face similar challenges that can be addressed through sharing good practices. The document recommends that RBM systems fully link development cooperation results to broader development results, avoid isolating cooperation results, and ensure country ownership of results information. It suggests using the UN's Sustainable Development Goals as a common framework to address these issues and better demonstrate contributions to development outcomes.
The document discusses using reporting to stakeholders as a way for business schools to stimulate learning about global responsibility. It provides three key points:
1) Audencia has made global responsibility a commitment integrated into its mission, research, teaching, corporate relations and management through initiatives like signing the UN Global Compact and PRME.
2) Audencia believes networks with other institutions and stakeholders are beneficial for sharing knowledge about developing responses to environmental and social issues.
3) The document advocates for transparent reporting to create trust with external stakeholders and trigger internal reflection and learning about progress implementing PRME commitments and improving practices for global responsibility.

Introducing the Global Livestock Advocacy for Development projectILRI
This document introduces the Global Livestock Advocacy for Development (GLAD) project, which aims to increase funding for the livestock sector in developing countries from 0.1% to higher levels of official development assistance. It does this by developing evidence-based messages about livestock's contributions to sustainable development and engaging stakeholders through advocacy events and media outreach. The document outlines initial insights from a media audit and stakeholder interviews that revealed negative perceptions of livestock. It then presents the project's hypothesis, goals, approach, activities conducted so far, and priorities to enhance livestock awareness and build communication capacities among partner organizations.
The document summarizes the key findings and conclusions from an evaluation of the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness from 2005. Some of the main points include:
1) While progress has been made on some targets, only 1 of 13 targets was met at the global level by 2010. Country ownership advanced the most while mutual accountability made the least progress.
2) The principles of the declaration remain relevant but have been implemented unevenly. Greater political commitment is still needed in many countries.
3) The evaluation found some positive contributions from aid reforms but also limitations when faced with entrenched issues like inequality. No single aid delivery method was found to be best.

Lecture fsw 2013 short version stakeholders and participationHenk Massink
This document discusses stakeholder participation in river basin management. It outlines the reasons for stakeholder participation, including bringing local knowledge, financing, manpower, and initiatives. Key elements of integrated water resources management that involve stakeholders are coordinating different groups, focusing on both economic and environmental concerns, using scientific data, and ensuring proper governance. The Water Framework Directive also mandates participation. Stakeholder analysis involves identifying and categorizing stakeholders, assessing their power and interests, identifying assumptions and risks, and determining appropriate levels of participation. Challenges to participation include issues around representation, accountability, scale, timeframes, and jurisdiction.

NAP Expo 2015 Session VII, IV Regional approaches & NAPsNAP Events
Regional approaches to climate change and disaster risk reduction (DRR) are beneficial for Pacific island countries due to limited national capacity, separate coordination of climate change and DRR efforts, and overlap between the two issues. A regional approach allows for greater efficiency, coordination, optimal use of resources, and stronger governance. National Adaptation Plans (NAPs) provide an opportunity for countries to systematically address development and risk management challenges in an integrated way within their national context using both overseas development assistance and climate financing. Linking NAPs to joint national action plans (JNAPs) through national task forces, representation from NGOs and civil society, and established consultation processes can leverage tools like NAPAs and national communications.

Introduction to the Targeted Topics Forum & NAP Global NetworkNAP Global Network
This document outlines the objectives and structure of the Targeted Topics Forum on Coordinating Climate-Resilient Development. The forum aims to: 1) develop strategies for high-level political support for mainstreaming climate adaptation; 2) gain practical knowledge on integrating adaptation into sectoral planning; and 3) identify roles of different actors to coordinate adaptation actions. It consists of three components: a steering committee of 11 countries, a secretariat, and global participation of donors and practitioners. The goal is to enhance bilateral support for national adaptation plans through improved coordination, leadership, learning, and exchange.
The document discusses plans to develop Joint Adaptation Standards (JAS) to improve advocacy for pro-poor adaptation policies. It aims to develop the JAS through a participatory process, introduce them to adaptation practitioners, and strengthen advocacy capacity. The JAS will be tested by civil society networks in 5-7 countries to assess national adaptation policies and inform advocacy efforts. The goal is to finalize the JAS based on lessons learned and launch them at COP20 in Paris.

Ta1.01 chinganya.wdf capacity building for moderization of institutions1Statistics South Africa
This document discusses capacity building for modernizing institutions and governance. It outlines several issues to consider, including increasing demand and use of data, fostering strong institutions and data processes, effective governance structures, building partnerships, and establishing multi-year financing. Capacity building aims to enhance skills, abilities, resources, strengthen understandings and relationships, and address values and conditions to support sustainable development. It works best when locally driven with a long-term focus on building local capacities and ongoing learning through adaptation. Program activities that are results-oriented, cost-effective, support ownership, and stimulate regional interaction through peer learning are an effective means for capacity building.

Combined Illegal, Unregulated and Unreported (IUU) Vessel List.Christina Parmionova
The best available, up-to-date information on all fishing and related vessels that appear on the illegal, unregulated, and unreported (IUU) fishing vessel lists published by Regional Fisheries Management Organisations (RFMOs) and related organisations. The aim of the site is to improve the effectiveness of the original IUU lists as a tool for a wide variety of stakeholders to better understand and combat illegal fishing and broader fisheries crime.
To date, the following regional organisations maintain or share lists of vessels that have been found to carry out or support IUU fishing within their own or adjacent convention areas and/or species of competence:
Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR)
Commission for the Conservation of Southern Bluefin Tuna (CCSBT)
General Fisheries Commission for the Mediterranean (GFCM)
Inter-American Tropical Tuna Commission (IATTC)
International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT)
Indian Ocean Tuna Commission (IOTC)
Northwest Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (NAFO)
North East Atlantic Fisheries Commission (NEAFC)
North Pacific Fisheries Commission (NPFC)
South East Atlantic Fisheries Organisation (SEAFO)
South Pacific Regional Fisheries Management Organisation (SPRFMO)
Southern Indian Ocean Fisheries Agreement (SIOFA)
Western and Central Pacific Fisheries Commission (WCPFC)
The Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List merges all these sources into one list that provides a single reference point to identify whether a vessel is currently IUU listed. Vessels that have been IUU listed in the past and subsequently delisted (for example because of a change in ownership, or because the vessel is no longer in service) are also retained on the site, so that the site contains a full historic record of IUU listed fishing vessels.
Unlike the IUU lists published on individual RFMO websites, which may update vessel details infrequently or not at all, the Combined IUU Fishing Vessel List is kept up to date with the best available information regarding changes to vessel identity, flag state, ownership, location, and operations.
