UNICEF works in some of the world’s toughest places, to reach the world’s most disadvantaged children. To save their lives. To defend their rights. To help them fulfill their potential.

Across 190 countries and territories, we work for every child, everywhere, every day, to build a better world for everyone.

And we never give up.

 

For every child, Opportunity

Starting 2018, the UNICEF Country Office Annual Report (COAR) has been revised building on lessons learned from four years of Country Office annual reporting linked with the previous Strategic Plan, and feedback from the field. The basic principles that guided the revision are simplification and harmonization of processes – in some instances that has involved reducing the COAR reporting requirement and in others it has meant moving some reporting requirements into regular RAM monitoring and reporting where they are more appropriately located.

The revised COAR will include two parts, i.e. Strategic Monitoring Questions (SMQs) and an analytical narrative. The narrative report is comprised of three sections :

  1. Situation update in the country ;
  2. Key results achieved including in humanitarian action and gender, against the results in the Country Programme Documents. This should include reference to the CPD’s Integrated Results and Resources Framework. To support review and consolidation of information, results against CPDs will be structured in line with the Strategic Plan Goal Areas :
  1. Every child survives and thrives ;
  2. Every child learns ;
  3. Every child is protected from violence and exploitation ;
  4. Every child lives in a safe and clean environment; and
  5. Every child has an equitable chance in life.
  1. Lessons learned and constraints.

Rwanda Country Office (RCO) commenced its new country programme 2018-2023 July this year, therefore the COAR comprises of the period of January – June 2018 of the previous country programme already reported in RAM and July – December 2018 of the current country programme.

The country office is expected to finalize the COAR by 21th January 2019. For quality assurance purpose, Rwanda Country Office is maintaining its internal deadlines and aims to complete the final draft by 31 December 2018.
