Present in 166 countries and territories, UNDP supports governments in developing strong policies, institutions and partnerships to achieve the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and its 17 Sustainable Development Goals. Drawing on UNDP's country presence and in close collaboration with UNDP's Global Policy Network and the Development Coordination Office (DCO) in the UN Secretariat, the Effective Development Cooperation Team, located in the Bureau for External Relations and Advocacy (BERA), provides policy and technical support to partner countries and UN Country Teams on development effectiveness, and supports the work of the Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation.
Established through the Busan Partnership Agreement in 2011, the Global Partnership for Effective Development Co-operation (Global Partnership or GPEDC) is a multi-stakeholder initiative for driving development effectiveness, to "maximize the effectiveness of all forms of co-operation for development for the shared benefits of people, planet, prosperity and peace." It brings together governments, bilateral and multilateral organizations, civil society, the private sector and representatives from parliaments and trade unions among others, who are committed to strengthening the effectiveness of their partnerships for development. The 2023-2026 Global Partnership Work Programme aims to strengthen the effectiveness of development cooperation to accelerate the implementation of the 2030 Agenda and ensure that no one is left behind. The Work Programme outlines three strategic priorities; generating evidence through the GPEDC monitoring exercise; driving informed policy dialogue and action through country dialogues and strategic partnerships; and fostering political awareness behaviour change and update through targeted outreach and advocacy.
Since its inception, the Global Partnership has benefitted from institutional support from UNDP together with OECD, which together constitute the OECD-UNDP Joint Support Team (JST). Annex 3 of the 2022 Geneva Outcome Document sets out the core functions of the Joint Support Team, which include: a) Management of the GPEDC Monitoring Framework and Process; b) Secretariat services and Advisory Services to Co-Chairs and Steering Committee; and c) Advocacy, Strategic Communications, Learning, and Knowledge Management support.
Among other things, the UNDP side of the JST provides country-level guidance to strengthen capacities for more effective development co-operation management, supports and tracks progress toward development effectiveness commitments through the monitoring exercise, provides substantive support to DCO in their role on the GPEDC Steering Committee as the UN development system representative, as well as facilitates knowledge sharing, communications and advocacy support to anchor development effectiveness and the work of the Global Partnership to spur implementation of the 2030 Agenda.
