More about the contribution
United Nations in Rwanda (One UN) is implementing the United Nations Development Assitance Plan II (UNDAP) during during 2018-2023. The Embassy has decided to support the programme fund called the Sustainable Development Goal's (SDG) fund with a total of 60 million SEK during the period 2019-2022. UNDAP II in Rwanda is designed to strengthen the co-ordination and effectiveness of the UN system at national level, as a contribution to Rwanda's efforts to achieve sustainable poverty reduction. Three strategic results areas are identified: Economic transformation, Social transformation and Transformational governance. They are fully aligned with the national development priorities, as articulated in the National Strategy for Transformation 2017-2024 (NST 1). The broad engagement corresponds to several of the objectives set out in the Swedish Development Cooperation Development Strategy with Rwanda 2015-2019. However Sweden has decided to loosely earmark the funds to four of the six outcomes areas which are more inline with the ongoing strategy. This is highlighted in the annexed payment schedule to the agreement. The Swedish support will be provided through the SDG Fund, in line with Sweden's willingness to support the UN reforms for a coherent and more effective work (UN reform "Delivering as One", DaO) and the Swedish strategy for multilateral development policy. Both UNDP, as the designated UN body that manages the One UN Fund (through the UNDP office in Kigali and headquarters in New York), and the UN Resident Coordinator (UN's High Representative in Rwanda) will sign the Standard Administrative Agreement (SAA) with the Swedish Embassy. The total budget for the interventions is 655 841 127 USD, out of which available funding is 242 966 590 USD. Hence there is a funding gap of 412 874 597 USD. Sweden will contribute with approximately 6 million USD (60 000 000 SEK).

It enhanced institutional mechanisms through tools like the Global Monitoring and Information System (GMIS) and Global Monitoring and Assessment System (GMAS), improved GBV prevention and response services, and promoted women's leadership, financial literacy, and access to markets. The "Men Engage" initiative and collaboration with civil society and local authorities contributed to shifting social norms and expanding womens roles in decisionmaking. The Joint Programme on Sustainable Cities: The Joint Programme promoted sustainable and inclusive urbanization aligned with Rwandas Vision 2050 and Agenda 2030. It improved urban governance through strategy reviews and the City Prosperity Index and empowered communities to coplan informal settlements. Environmental initiatives included Kigalis LowCarbon Mobility Plan and reforestation in Rubavu. The programme advanced inclusive growth, climate resilience, and local economic opportunities. The Joint Programme on Climate Resilience promoted biofarming techniques, supported integrated rice and fish farming, facilitated the establishment of sustainable rural settlements, and improved national and local capacities for early warning, disaster prevention, and climate change adaptation. The Joint Programme on Youth significantly contribute to the economic and health empowerment of young men and women, with a particular focus on vulnerable groups. Over the fouryear period, the programme created thousands of jobs, provided entrepreneurship support, and enhanced access to health services for youth across various sectors. The programme's success underscores the importance of continued investment in youth development to drive sustainable growth and resilience in the region.
The UNDAP II outlines the areas of support to the national development agenda in Rwanda by the United Nations system, under the umbrella known as ‘One UN’. The overarching principle of the United Nations Development Assistance Plan 2018-2023 (UNDAP II) is to ‘leave no one behind’ underpinned by a human rights-based approach to programming, gender equality and women’s empowerment; sustainability and resilience; and accountability. Interventions will focus on ensuring the targeting and prioritization of the most vulnerable population in Rwanda, reaching the furthest behind first. Three Strategic Priority Areas for the UNDAP 2018-2023 are identified as: (i) Economic Transformation; (ii) Social Transformation, and; (iii) Transformational Governance. These results areas are directly aligned to the Government of Rwanda’s national development priorities as outlined in the Vision 2050, the National Strategy for Transformation (NST1) 2017-2024 and the subsequent Sector Strategic Plans and District Development Strategies, grounded on Agenda 2030, AU Agenda 2063 and East African Community Vision 2050. The UNDAP II consists of six Outcomes and 25 Outputs, each with defined results and means of measurement and verification. Informed by the recommendations of the final evaluation of the UNDAP 2013-2018, the UNDAP II seeks to further strengthen the humanitarian-development nexus and improve programmatic integration and coherence, including through appropriate integration between operational and programmatic action for more efficient implementation of interventions and finally more effective and impactful UN system support to national development.
