United Nations Coherence

Improving how the UN works

UNICEF Action Plan for the Triennial Comprehensive Policy Review

The 2007 resolution on the Triennial Comprehensive Policy Review (62/208) is the latest overall guidance by the General Assembly to the UN System on operational activities for development. UNICEF fully supports the efforts to make the UN-system as a whole more coherent, at global, regional and country levels. In an effort to give a systematic overview of actions that respond to the TCPR resolution, UNICEF has created the TCPR Action Plan.  

This Action Plan follows up on the UNICEF paper “UN Reform – What it Means for Children” completed in April 2006. In the past 30 months, UNICEF has allocated significant resources to support the necessary changes, including establishment of a dedicated staff team, and strengthened internal communication channels such as demonstrated by "ASK".   Some of UNICEF’s actions responding to the TCPR are already reflected in documents such as the Medium-Term Strategic Plan, its mid-term review and planning documents, and the gender evaluation.
