| Overview : In 2008, the United Nations in Botswana adopted the “Delivering as One” approach as a self-starter where the roadmap towards the “Development as One” was established. This eventually culminated into the Government of Botswana-United Nations 2010-2016 United Nations Development Assistance Framework and the 2010-2014 Programme Operational Plan (GoB UN POP). The purpose of this was to improve the coherence and effectiveness of the contribution of the United Nations to the attainment of the national priorities of Botswana. In 2012, a MTR of the 2010-2014 GoB- UN POP was commissioned. In the same year, the Government of Botswana also undertook a mid-term review of its NDP10. Together, the 2011 study on UN engagement in a middle income country, the NDP10 MTR and the GoB-UN POP MTR provided a sound basis for the revision of the GoB-UN POP 2010-2014. To align with the 2010-2014 GOVT OF BOTSWANA - UN PROGRAMME OPERATIONAL PLAN and Government of Botswana National Development Plan 11 and the new post 2016 Vision processes, the GOB-UN POP was extended two years, through 2016. Thereafter, alignment with the GoB planning cycles was achieved. In light of the foregoing, consultancy services (1 consultant) to support the roll-out of the GOVT OF BOTSWANA - UN PROGRAMME OPERATIONAL PLAN are required from June to July 2015 to undertake the analysis and stratrgic planning for the GoB UN POP. |
