Government of Uganda, hereinafter referred to as “the Government” and the United Nations Population Fund, herein referred to as “UNFPA” being in mutual agreement to the content of the Country Programme Action Plan (CPAP) and to the outlined responsibilities in the implementation of the Country Programme; and Furthering their mutual agreement and Cooperation for the fulfilment of the Programme of Action of the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development (ICPD), ICPD + 5, other related conferences, and the Millennium Development Goals (MDG); Building upon the experience gained and progress made during the implementation of the of the GoU – UNFPA Fifth Country Programme (CP5), Entering into a new period of cooperation, which is based on the recently approved Country Programme Document, the United Nations Development Assistance Framework, the Common Country Assessment and Uganda‟s Poverty Eradication Action Plan: Declaring that these responsibilities will be fulfilled in a spirit of friendly cooperation; PART I BASIS OF RELATIONSHIP Resolutions 2211 (XXI) of 17 December 1966, 34/104 of 14 December 1979, and 50/438 of 20 December 1995 of the General Assembly of the United Nations and the standard letter of agreement between Government of Uganda and UNDP of 29 April 1977 provide the basis of the relationship between the Government and UNFPA This Country Programme Action covering the period from January 2006 to 31 December 2010 is to be interpreted and implemented in conformity with these resolutions The Country Programme Action Plan consists of 10 parts wherein the general policies, priorities, objectives, strategies, management, responsibilities and commitments of the government and UNFPA are described, and two annexes PART II SITUATION ANALYSIS Uganda participates and is signatory to both the International Conference on Population and Development Programme of Action (ICPD PoA) and the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) The country has developed the Poverty Eradication Action Plan (PEAP) as the medium term development framework with a goal of reducing the population below poverty line from present 38% to 28% by 2014 The country is member of the East African Community (EAC) and the African Union (AU) and participates in initiatives such as New Partnership for African Development (NEPAD), African Growth and Opportunities Act (AGOA) and Everything But Arms (EBA) Uganda‟s population grew from 6.5 million in 1959 to 24.4 million in 2002, and is currently projected at 26.7 million At the current growth rate of 3.3% per annum, which is among the highest in the world, the population is projected to reach 54.8 million by 2025 and 103 million by 2050 (UN 2002) The rapid population growth is attributed to the high total fertility rate at 6.9, high unmet need for family planning at 35% and the resultant population momentum The population is mainly rural (88%) and youthful, with 52% below 15 years and 20% aged 15 – 24 years Uganda remains one of the poorest countries of the world ranking 144th out of 177 least developed countries according to the 2005 Human Development Report As measured by income poverty, the proportion of the population living in poverty is not only high but also increasing Poverty declined from 56% in 1992 to 44% in 1997/8 and to 34% in 2000 but rose to 38% between 2000-2003 Inequality as measured by Gini-coefficient also rose markedly from 0.39 to 0.43 between 1999/2000 and 2002/3 Poverty rose in almost all regions of the Country with a particularly sharp rise in the East The North remains the poorest region in the country (MFPED, 2004) Findings from the Participatory Poverty Assessment (PPA) II, show that women and child headed households are poorer than male-headed households and poverty is concentrated among disadvantaged groups including orphans and vulnerable children, the elderly, the disabled, the chronically ill and the displaced (MFPED 2003) Northern Uganda has since the mid -1990s experienced violent conflicts and insurgency due to rebel activity particularly in the sub-regions of Acholi, Madi, West Nile as well as Teso and Lira This has adversely affected economic productivity and general livelihood in the affected regions Although considerable progress has been registered in women emancipation including participation in leadership where women account for 40% of elected positions in local government and 28% of Parliament, gender disparities still persist This in part is due to lack of capacity to mainstream gender in programming, inadequacy of gender desegregation, gaps in legal framework for addressing gender based violence and inadequate participation of girls in education and SRH services Sexual and gender-based violence (SGBV) is common and highest in conflict-affected areas where rape, abductions and the exchange of sexual favours for basic necessities are prevalent For instance, girls who live in IDP camps are highly vulnerable to rape as they move around in search of food, water and firewood Moreover, sexual slavery and transactional sex among adolescent girls and women at home and in schools have increased the risk to physical trauma, STIs including HIV infection and early pregnancy Community and social support systems for IDPs are over-stretched or have collapsed, making the poor, women and children more vulnerable to socio-economic difficulties Relevant institutions have limited capacity to provide the necessary psychosocial support for victims of SGBV The health sector continues to be characterised by inadequate and low-skilled human resources, poor infrastructure, inadequate equipment and supplies, and a poor referral system As a result, sector indicators remain undesirable with maternal mortality ratio at 505 deaths per 100,000 live births, the infant mortality is 83 per 1000 live births and 38% of all infant deaths are neonatal deaths Life expectancy at birth is only 45.4 years for males and 46.9 years for females Access to and utilization of health services, notably for reproductive health is low as reflected in the low skilled attendance at childbirth (38%) and high unmet need for Emergency Obstetric Care (EmOC) at 95% among others Despite knowledge on contraception being very high at 96%, the contraceptive prevalence rate only increased from 5% in 1989 to 23 % in 2001, with only 48% of the married women having spousal approval of the use of family planning Knowledge on contraception among adolescents aged 15 – 19 years is 92% for girls and 96% for boys Despite this, the contraceptive prevalence among girls in this age group is only 9% Uganda has had several initiatives focusing on young people However, there is still limited access to adolescent sexual and reproductive health information and services Social, economic and cultural factors still play a significant role in influencing the behaviour and practices of young people Teenage pregnancy rate of 31% remains one of the highest in sub-Saharan Africa, contributing to maternal mortality and morbidity, including obstetric fistula Female genital mutilation/cutting is still existent among the Sabiny and other communities Uganda has registered considerable progress in the fight against HIV/ AIDS as evidenced by reduction in prevalence rate from 18% in 1992 to 7% in 2005 About 1.1 million Ugandans are estimated to be currently living with HIV The predominant mode of infection remains unprotected heterosexual transmission followed by mother to child transmission (MTCT) Women and young people, especially girls, are most vulnerable with 55% of those infected being women and a prevalence rate of 4.9% among young people Awareness of HIV/AIDS is universal but knowledge on prevention of HIV infection is not as high (86.6%) Condom use is a well-known method of preventing HIV infection, but only 7% of women and 12% men use condoms Socio-cultural practices and tradition contribute to the high incidence The epidemic has contributed significantly to an increase in orphan-hood currently standing at 1.8 million The decentralized system of governance and sectoral development frameworks provide opportunities to integrate population issues in development taking advantage of a wealth of data collected in the recent past However, most of the existing surveys provide only national and regional level information and may not be adequate for programming at district and lower levels Data management systems such as the Health Management Information System (HMIS), Logistics Management Information System (LMIS); Education Management Information System (EMIS); Local Government Information Communication System (LOGICS) are often not very comprehensive and standardised Civil registration is generally poor with only 4.2% of the children registered and only 20% of them having a birth certificate PART III PAST COOPERATION AND LESSONS LEARNED The United Nations Population Fund support to Uganda started as far back as 1975 through the project approach The cooperation between Government of Uganda and UNFPA based on programme approach began in 1985, and since then five Country Programmes have been implemented The most recent covering the period 2001 to 2005 was intended to support Uganda towards achieving targets set in the ICPD POA, Convention on Elimination of all forms of Discrimination Against Women (CEDAW) and the Millennium Declaration Its goal was to contribute to a better quality of life for Ugandans through improved reproductive health, sustainable population growth and development, enhanced gender equity and equality, and the empowerment of women The Programme focused on three thematic areas, Reproductive Health (RH) including Family Planning and Sexual Health; Population and Development Strategies (PDS); and Advocacy The RH Sub-programme covered 24 out of the then 56 districts in the country It expanded the emergency obstetric referral system from to the current 16 districts In collaboration with other partners, particularly DELIVER, the programme improved mechanisms for forecasting, procurement and distribution of contraceptive commodities The Programme expanded reproductive health services and information for young people from 12 to 24 districts through two programmes, African Youth Alliance (AYA) and Programme for Enhancing Adolescent Reproductive Life (PEARL) Efforts to eliminate Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting (FGM/FGC) in the then Kapchorwa district (REACH) resulted in the formulation of community bylaws to end FGM/FGC in out of 16 sub-counties Based on a needs assessment on obstetric fistula, UNFPA procured specialised equipment for regional hospitals and initiated training of doctors and nurses to support fistula patients The programme also built skills for different categories of health service providers through pre-service and in-service training Despite these efforts, there are still gaps in RH service delivery, particularly EmOC and Reproductive Health Commodity Security (RHCS) The PDS Sub-Programme covered all the districts and led to successful completion of the 2002 national population and housing census; strengthening of district planning units to integrate population factors into development plans; revision of the national population policy; the finalization of the adolescent health policy and; establishment of a monitoring and evaluation system The Advocacy Sub-Programme had a national coverage and resulted in improved partnerships with legislators, NGOs, media houses, cultural and faith-based institutions; establishment of Goodwill Ambassadors and the population and media network; and development of the national media advocacy strategy The Programme increased support for population issues in the media and among political, district, religious and cultural leaders Under the Programme, a number of lessons were learnt Partnerships with political institutions, Goodwill Ambassadors, the media, civil society and cultural and faith-based institutions ensure credibility and greater acceptance of sexual and reproductive health information and services, particularly for young people The innovative EmOC referral system (RESCUER) greatly contributed to reduction of maternal deaths However, the capacity of districts to sustain such a system remains inadequate The pilot Fistula project has provided hope for women who have been repaired and received treatment Nurses and Doctors have been trained on Fistula repair and counselling while hospitals have been equipped with Fistula repair equipment Maternal death audit, particularly the community verbal autopsies resulted in increased male involvement in early referral of obstetric emergencies and opens up a dialogue between health workers and communities on reproductive health issues Community based distribution of contraceptives significantly contributes to acceptance of family planning It also requires incentives for its sustainability A wide range of FP methods including long-term and permanent methods attract more clients as compared to fewer methods Political support is critical for success of FP and therefore advocacy and policy dialogue is an essential ingredient for a successful FP programme Uncoordinated and overlapping programmes takes time away from service provision and therefore a national training plan would be essential in coordinating and harmonising training programmes Regular and routine technical support supervision especially after training is critical for improved performance of the trained health providers Empowerment of young people to participate in the design, implementation and evaluation of their sexual and reproductive health programmes tremendously contributes to raising their voices, addressing their real needs and achieving greater results A fair mix of information and services enhances young people‟s utilisation of health services FGC/M “surgeons” who have denounced the practice are an effective medium for de-campaigning against FGC/M For effective implementation of the population programme, it is critical to develop systems and tools such as the M&E system, training manuals, standards and protocols at the beginning of the programme Building institutional and technical capacity of implementing partners is essential for effective programme implementation and management Focus on advocacy as a strategy in support of RH and PDS promotes creation of a supportive environment critical for achievement of desired outcomes Closer linkage of Reproductive Health and HIV/AIDS programmes creates synergy and also ensures increased funding for underserved RH programmes Inclusion of a specific Gender component, which includes SGBV and gender mainstreaming, is essential for ensuring a gender focus of all programmes at the design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation Documentation of lessons learned and best practices facilitates sharing of experiences and replication of programmes Understaffing at the UNFPA Country Office is a constraint to programme implementation and management and participation in policy dialogue Regular orientation of implementers in UNFPA‟s programme and financial policies and procedures ensures adherence to UNFPA‟s programme management All these lessons will be utilized in the design and implementation of the 6th Country Programme PART IV PROPOSED PROGRAMME The Country Programme Action Plan (CPAP) builds on the Country Programme Document for Uganda (DP/FPA/DCP/UGA/6) approved by the Executive Board of the United Nations Development Programme and the United Nations Population Fund The CPAP also builds on the concepts and commitments outlined in the United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) jointly determined by the resident UN partners in Uganda in close partnership and with the support of the Government of Uganda The Programme responds to national priorities, which have been articulated in the PEAP under five pillars namely, 1) Economic Management; 2) Enhancing Production, Competitiveness, and Incomes; 3) Security, Conflict Resolution, and Disaster Management; 4) Good Governance; and 5) Human Development The United Nations System (UNS) through the CCA identified four areas of cooperation on the national medium-term development priorities contained in the PEAP The UNDAF further articulated these areas of cooperation under five outcomes namely: (1) increased opportunities for people, especially the most vulnerable, to access and utilize quality basic services and realize sustainable employment, income generation and food security; (2) Good Governance, accountability, and transparency of Government and partner institutions improved at all levels (3) The promotion and protection of human rights, especially of the most vulnerable is strengthened; (4) individuals, civil society, national and local institutions are empowered and effectively address HIV and AIDS, with special emphasis on populations at higher risk; and (5) people affected by conflict and disaster, especially women, children and other vulnerable groups, effectively participate in and benefit from the planning, timely implementation, monitoring and evaluation of programmes The GoU/UNFPA 6th Country Programme is designed to contribute to four UNDAF outcomes, while ensuring linkages with the Multi Year Funding Framework (MYFF) The MYFF is UNFPA‟s medium term plan for the period 2004-2007 that specifies the organizational results with the aim of strengthening the Fund‟s contribution to the implementation of the PoA of the ICPD in the context of poverty reduction and in line with UNFPA‟s New Strategic Direction The MYFF outcomes are: 1) A policy environment that promotes reproductive health and rights; 2) Access to comprehensive reproductive health services is increased through improved systems and services; 3) Demand for reproductive health is strengthened; 4) Utilization of age and sex disaggregated population-related data is improved; 5) National, sub-national and sectoral policies, plans and strategies take into account population and development linkages; and 6) Institutional mechanisms and socio-cultural practices promote and protect the rights of women and girls and advance gender equity The CPAP takes into consideration the experiences of the Fifth Country Programme (2001-2005) It takes note of the national reform processes, following particularly the decentralization, emphasising a district specific approach The partnership evolved under the 5th Country Programme will continue to be strengthened and intensified especially in 33 districts, twelve of which are in the conflict affected Northern Region and have the poorest RH indicators The goal of the 6th Country Programme is to contribute to poverty eradication and a better quality of life for the people of Uganda by improving sexual and reproductive health and rights; ensuring sustainable population growth and development; and enhancing gender equity and equality Areas for joint programming with partner agencies include interventions in: HIV/AIDS, emergency obstetric care, sexual and gender-based violence, adolescent reproductive health programmes, and data collection, dissemination and analysis The country programme has three outcomes under three components: Reproductive Health; Population and Development; and Gender Reproductive Health component The outcome of this component is: men, women, young people and other vulnerable groups have access to and utilize comprehensive sexual and reproductive health information and services, including HIV/AIDS prevention This outcome contributes to UNFPA‟s MYFF outcomes 1, and 3; UNDAF outcomes 1, 3, and The programme component is designed to respond to the health sector priorities of the Government of Uganda as articulated in the second Health Sector Strategic Plan (HSSP II) outcomes, through core interventions outlined in Clusters and It is in line with the Strategy to Improve Reproductive Health in Uganda and the HIV/AIDS National Strategic Framework, among other national frameworks Under this component, UNFPA will continue to strengthen the MOH, other relevant sectoral ministries, NGOs and CBOs in the provision of integrated RH services including safe motherhood, HIV/AIDS prevention, ARH services and family planning in selected project sites The programme will endeavour to ensure integration of RH programmes with the multi-sectoral HIV/AIDS programmes Integrated RH services will be availed to men, women and young people, particularly the vulnerable groups including those affected by conflict and other emergencies as well as those at high risk of HIV/AIDS This will be achieved through three deliverable outputs, which have been discussed in the proceeding section Output 1: Increased availability of comprehensive sexual and reproductive health services, particularly family planning, emergency obstetric care, antenatal care, STI/HIV/AIDS prevention and adolescent-friendly health services, emphasizing reproductive health commodity security and the needs of people affected by conflict Key strategies to be employed to achieve this output are: Developing systems for improving performance and quality of service with a major focus on institutional capacity building, particularly at District and Sub-District levels; and Promoting, strengthening and coordinating partnerships with the Ministry of Health, selected NGOs and CSOs The output will be achieved through joint programming with UNICEF, WFP and WHO Major Activities: Provide Emergency Obstetric Care (EmOC) The programme will support the rolling out of EmOC Services at HC III, HC IV and hospital level including the establishment of maternal death reviews in selected districts as specified in HSSP II It will put in place obstetric emergency referral system in line with the National Road Map for Maternal and Newborn Health, equip health facilities, provide support for on job performance improvement/enhancement and strengthen partnerships between EmOC stakeholders including the private sector On the basis of lessons learnt from the RESCUER Programme implemented during the 5th Country Programme and in collaboration with partners, UNFPA will support the design of more cost effective ways of revitalizing, maintaining and scaling up of the RESCUER Programme while ensuring its sustainability It would also upscale Fistula activities in public and Private Not For Profit referral hospitals as well as set up one Fistula repair centre to train doctors and nurses The programme will focus on prevention and develop curriculum for training in obstetric fistulae Provide antenatal care and post-natal care: The programme will work with partners to scale up antenatal care by ensuring that pregnant women receive Goal-oriented Antenatal Care and after delivery, women receive quality postnatal care Under the goal oriented ANC, focus will be on increasing access to services and ensuring availability of essential equipment and supplies Support Reproductive Health Commodity Security and Provide Family Planning Services: The programme will support improved Reproductive Health Commodity Security through a functional RHCS coordination mechanism with an agreed national strategy and operational plan as well as ensure a functional Logistics Management Information System The programme will support the work of the Reproductive Health Division to plan, manage and coordinate the forecasting (through Country Commodity Manager), procurement and distribution of contraceptive commodities including the procurement of contraceptive commodities and RH supplies The programme will work with partners to revitalize Family Planning through various interventions to ensure that women, men and young people receive the relevant and appropriate information on family planning as well as contraceptives of their choice, including permanent methods to enable them postpone, space and limit pregnancies as desired The programme will ensure provision of quality FP services in selected districts UNFPA will work with other partners to ensure contraceptive commodity security at all levels Provide post abortion care: The programme will work towards reducing unwanted pregnancy and unsafe abortion through revitalization of family planning and post abortion care in particular It will further ensure that those women who suffer complications of unsafe abortion receive prompt treatment through post-abortion care as well as strengthen post abortion family planning counselling Provide STI/HIV/AIDS and other reproductive tract infections services: The programme will support IEC and community mobilization with emphasis on the Abstinence, Be faithful, and Condom use (ABC) principle PMTCT services will be made accessible for pregnant women who will be supported through antenatal and family planning clinics with special focus on conflict areas STI prevention will be integrated into family FP through counselling and discussion on sexuality and partner relationships Provide Sexual and Gender Based violence (SGBV) services: The programme will support partners to initiate SGBV treatment, counselling and referral services for survivors The services will be linked to activities implemented under the gender component and will among others include provision of emergency contraception, post abortion care, treatment of STIs, and postexposure prophylaxis for HIV infection after rape, screening and treatment of cervical cancer, prevention of primary and secondary infertility, and treatment of gynaecological conditions The services will involve community participation, and will contribute to improved user provider relations, men‟s participation, and women‟s empowerment to make reproductive health choices Provide Adolescent Sexual and Reproductive Health (ASRH) services: The programme will support interventions aimed at reducing teenage pregnancy rates and provision of integrated ASRH services based on good practices and lessons learned from AYA and PEARL projects of Human Resource The UNFPA country office in Uganda consists of a Representative, a Deputy Representative, an Assistant Representative, an Operations Manager, a National Programme Officer, and support staff Programme funds will be earmarked for four National Programme Officers and seven Programme and Administrative support staff within the framework of the approved country office typology National Project Personnel may also be recruited to strengthen Programme implementation At the request of Government, the UNFPA Country Technical Services Team based in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia will provide technical backstopping International and national consultants may be recruited to provide specific technical assistance Resource Mobilization UNFPA will assist government in lobbying for additional resources for the implementation of the country programme Implementers will lobby for an increase in budgetary allocation for Population, Gender and RH programmes Districts and community will be mobilized to make contributions for program implementation These contributions will be in cash or in-kind in form of personnel and time These contributions will enhance community participation, program sustainability and ownership PART VII MONITORING, ASSURANCE AND EVALUATION Monitoring and evaluation of the CP6 will be anchored on Result-Based Management and aligned to the UNDAF M&E Framework, the CPAP Results and Resource Framework, National Integrated Monitoring and Evaluation System under the Prime Minister‟s Office and the PEAP Monitoring Framework The CPAP Results and Resources Framework (RRF) will be a core component of the M&E Framework The CPAP RRF contains outcome and output indicators, baselines and targets, implementing and operational partners and indicative resources per output The CPAP RRF will be the basis for assessing achievement of results at various levels The M&E Framework will provide a rational measure for tracking of progress of the entire 6th Country Programme This Framework contains crucial pillars for monitoring and evaluation of the 6th CP including a baseline survey, field monitoring and reporting, coordination, research, annual CPAP reviews and, the end-line survey The M&E database that was established in the 5th CP, will be reoriented to meet the 6th CP information needs, and updated regularly A baseline survey will be conducted for the Programme to provide benchmarks upon which targets will be drawn and progress measured The Survey will be national in scope, but will also target specific districts or responding units to capture detailed data for some of the components of the Programme Formative research will be carried out in order to guide specific interventions including development of BCC and advocacy messages for specific target audiences Operational research will also be carried out to support delivery of specific interventions including integrated package of RH services in specific districts Periodic field visits will be carried out to identify technical and or operational strengths and weaknesses; identify technical issues for backstopping missions, share experience with other projects 18 in the Programme, and avoid duplication with activities of other agencies in the same area Quarterly Programme component meetings as well as bi-annual M&E coordination meetings will be held The findings from field visits as well as progress reports presented at various meetings will feed into the Annual CPAP Reviews Annual CPAP Reviews will be conducted to assess progress towards realization of the outputs The Reviews will assess progress towards accomplishment of the planned activities as well as coordination among partners, facilitate information exchange and make joint decisions on the way forward An end of Programme evaluation will be conducted in 2010 to establish achievement of outputs, outcomes and Programme impact and sustainability and also guide formulation of the following Country Programme Information regarding best practices and lessons learnt will be compiled and utilized for future country programming, and also disseminated to interested stakeholders for possible replication The 6th CP M&E Framework will be closely linked with the UNDAF M&E Matrix and will provide input into the UNDAF Mid-Term Review, which will be held in fourth quarter of 2008 The UNDAF review will assist UNFPA to adjust or update its CPAP in terms of results and resources Another UNDG joint meeting will be held in the first quarter of 2010 to assess achievement attained by the UNDAF Information from this meeting will inform the CCA and the formulation of the rd UNDAF and GoU/UNFPA‟s 7th Country Programme The CPAP Results and Resources Framework, the CPAP Planning and Tracking Tool, and M&E Calendar are attached as Annex I, II and III Implementing partners agree to cooperate with UNFPA for monitoring all activities supported by cash transfers and will facilitate access to relevant financial records and personnel responsible for the administration of cash provided by UNFPA To that effect, Implementing partners agree to the following: Periodic on-site reviews and spot checks of their financial records by UNFPA or its representatives, Programmatic monitoring of activities following UNFPA‟s standards and guidance for site visits and field monitoring, Special or scheduled audits UNFPA, in collaboration with other UN agencies (where so desired: and in consultation with Ministry of Finance, Planning and Economic Development will establish an annual audit plan, giving priority to audits of Implementing Partners with large amounts of cash assistance provided by UNFPA, and those whose financial management capacity needs strengthening The Auditor General may undertake the audits of government Implementing Partners If the Auditor General chooses not to undertake the audits of specific Implementing Partners to the frequency and scope required by UNFPA, UNFPA will commission the audits to be undertaken by private sector audit services PART VIII COMMITMENTS OF UNFPA UNFPA will commit an amount of US$ 20 million in support of this CPAP covering the period 2006-2010, subject to the availability of funds UNFPA will also seek additional funding from other sources, subject to donor interest in the proposed interventions of this CPAP The total amount that will be sought from other sources will be to the tune of US$ 10 million bringing a total contribution to US$ 30 million This support from regular and other resources shall be exclusive of funding received in response to emergency appeals 19 UNFPA support for the development and implementation of activities within this Country Programme Action Plan will be in line with four key programme strategies viz., building and using a knowledge base for informed decision making; advocacy and policy dialogue for increased resources and conducive implementation environment; promoting, strengthening and coordinating partnerships for effective implementation; and developing systems of counterpart institutions for improving performance Specifically, the programme will support; procurement of relevant supplies and equipment, provision of services, support supervision, data collection/analysis, advocacy, systems building, and policy formulation and implementation and management, improvement of facilities, monitoring and evaluation Support will be provided to national counterparts including civil society organizations as agreed within the framework of the individual AWPs The release of funds will be in accordance with guidelines and financial procedures as provided by UNFPA Specific details on the allocation and yearly phasing of UNFPA‟s assistance will be reviewed and further detailed through the preparation of the AWPs In case of direct cash transfer or reimbursement, UNFPA shall notify the Implementing Partner of the amount approved by UNFPA and shall disburse funds to the Implementing Partner in seven days In case of direct payment to vendors or third parties for obligations incurred by the Implementing Partners on the basis of requests signed by the designated official of the Implementing Partner; or to vendors or third parties for obligations incurred by UNFPA in support of activities agreed with Implementing Partners, UNFPA shall proceed with the payment within seven days UNFPA shall not have any direct liability under the contractual arrangements concluded between the Implementing Partner and a third party vendor Where more than one UN agency provides cash to the same Implementing Partner, programme monitoring, financial monitoring and auditing will be undertaken jointly or coordinated with those UN agencies During the review meetings, respective implementing partners will examine with the component coordinating institutions and UNFPA the rate of implementation for each programme component Subject to the review meetings conclusions, if the rate of implementation in any programme component is substantially below the annual estimates, funds may be re-allocated by mutual consent between the Government and UNFPA to other programmatically equally worthwhile strategies that will yield results UNFPA maintains the right to request the return of any cash, equipment or supplies furnished by it, which are not used for the purpose specified in the AWPs UNFPA will keep the Government informed about the UNFPA Executive Board policies and any changes occurring during the programme period PART IX COMMITMENTS OF THE GOVERNMENT The Government of Uganda will continue to provide annual financial contributions to UNFPA In addition, the Government will commit counterpart funding to the programme, and will also be 20 committed to support UNFPA in its efforts to raise funds required to meet the additional financial needs of this CPAP as may be identified in the course of project implementation UNFPA shall be exempted from Value Added Tax or any other forms of taxation in respect of procurement of supplies and services in support of this CPAP Government will also accord to UNFPA officials and other persons performing services on its behalf, such facilities and services as are accorded to officials and consultants of the various funds, programmes and specialized agencies of the United Nations Government will ensure that the accounting procedures for all UNFPA inputs will conform to the Government accounting procedures and to UNFPA requirements A standard Fund Authorization and Certificate of Expenditures (FACE) report, reflecting the activity lines of the Annual Work Plan (AWP), will be used by Implementing Partners to request the release of funds, or to secure the agreement that UNFPA will reimburse or directly pay for planned expenditure The Implementing Partners will use the FACE to report on the utilization of cash received The Implementing Partner shall identify the designated official(s) authorized to provide the account details, request and certify the use of cash The FACE will be certified by the designated official(s) of the Implementing Partner Cash transferred to Implementing Partners should be spent for the purpose of activities as agreed in the AWPs only Cash received by the Government and national NGO Implementing Partners shall be used in accordance with established national regulations, policies and procedures consistent with international standards, in particular ensuring that cash is expended for activities as agreed in the AWPs, and ensuring that reports on the full utilization of all received cash are submitted to UNFPA within six months after receipt of the funds Where any of the national regulations, policies and procedures are not consistent with international standards, UNFPA regulations, policies and procedures will apply In the case of international NGO and IGO Implementing Partners cash received shall be used in accordance with international standards in particular ensuring that cash is expended for activities as agreed in the AWPs, and ensuring that reports on the full utilization of all received cash are submitted to UNFPA within six months after receipt of the funds To facilitate scheduled and special audits, each Implementing Partner receiving cash from UNFPA will provide UNFPA or its representative with timely access to: all financial records which establish the transactional record of the cash transfers provided by UNFPA; all relevant documentation and personnel associated with the functioning of the Implementing Partner‟s internal control structure through which the cash transfers have passed The findings of each audit will be reported to the Implementing Partner and UNFPA Each Implementing Partner will furthermore
