Synthesis of Resident Coordinator Annual Reports 2008
December 2008
As this Synthesis of UN Resident Coordinators’ Annual Reports for 2008 attests, the UN development system is increasingly strengthening its coordination. More and more it is aligning itself with national priorities, as called for in the Paris Declaration and last year’s Accra Agenda for Action. It is adjusting its mix of expertise and assistance to match the changing needs of those it serves. It is also moving to harmonize and simplify its procedures, work more efficiently, and make its programmes more coherent, inclusive, and relevant.
