Dear Partner,
In 2017, UNICEF continued to build on its strong track record of delivering results for children. Thanks to the investment, support and backing of our partners, millions of people received vital services provided through development programmes and humanitarian response supported by UNICEF.
Through our development programmes in 2017, UNICEF reached 45 million people with improved water supplies and 22 million with improved sanitation, the highest numbers ever achieved. The campaign to eradicate Guinea worm reached a new milestone with South Sudan reporting zero cases for the first time, and a total of just 30 people infected in Chad and Ethiopia. Additionally, through our education programmes globally, 12.5 million children accessed learning materials, about 250,000 classrooms were equipped with education supplies and nearly 48,000 school communities were trained in management, planning and/or inclusive education. In Madagascar, cash transfers helped over 21,000 out-of-school girls re-enter formal schooling, including almost 5,000 at the lower secondary education level.
UNICEF’s efforts to protect the rights of children were severely stretched by an unprecedented number of complex and large-scale humanitarian emergencies in Bangladesh, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Nigeria, South Sudan, Syria, and Yemen, among others. In partnership with the World Bank Group – International Development Association, UNICEF vaccinated 4.8 million children against polio, and delivered cash transfers to more than one million households, reaching nearly one-third of the population in Yemen. The UN joint response to the influx of 1.2 million Rohingya refugees including 720,000 children, from northern parts of Myanmar’s Rakhine State into Bangladesh, was an example of how the UN is delivering results together. UNICEF also provided 242,000 children and pregnant and lactating women with micronutrient supplementation, with the World Food Programme, UN Refugee Agency and the World Health Organization.
We also marked the end of the implementation of the Strategic Plan 2014-2017 and the ushering in of a new and ambitious plan for the next four years. Developed in consultation with our partners, the new Strategic Plan 2018-2021 is an opportunity to broaden our commitment to children. It charts the course towards the attainment of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and emphasizes bold and innovative cooperation with governments, civil society children, young people and the private sector. Furthermore, in the Common Chapter, the Strategic Plan highlights areas where UNICEF will work closely with other United Nations agencies, funds and programmes, to deliver tangible results for children in direct response to the Quadrennial Comprehensive Policy Review.
As UNICEF begins implementing this new Plan, we are strengthening our capacity to transition our emergency responses to long term resilience for vulnerable communities and deepening our cooperation with businesses locally and globally to respond innovatively to the needs of children. We are also exploring new areas of work. We will be scaling up our work with adolescence - the crucial second decade of life, by pursuing an ambitious agenda focused on ‘every young person being in school, learning, training or employment by 2030’.
All our work will be underpinned by our commitment to deliver results for children, efficiently, effectively, and transparently by maximizing cost effectiveness in our planning, implementing and reporting. For 2018 – 2021 we project $25 million in savings by processing financial and administrative transactions through the UNICEF Global Shared Services Centre. Additionally, by collaborating with other UN agencies on the ground to deliver local business solutions in information technology, procurement and cash transfers to implementing partners, UNICEF will save an estimated $4 million annually. Finally, through our evaluation function, we will build a strong evidence base that will inform our efforts to constantly improve our programmes.
The SDGs demand new and urgent action in reaching the hardest to reach children, leaving no child behind. Your partnership and commitment, over the next four years, as we aim to reach 5.1 million migrant and displaced children with protective services, ensure 120 million babies are born safely in health facilities and support 172 million vulnerable children with cash transfer programmes, remains critical. To achieve these and all other goals, we must meet the $22.8 billion resource target set in the Strategic Plan’s Integrated Results and Resources Framework. A strong investment in multi-year and flexible funds – including Regular Resources and softly earmarked Thematic Funding - is critical for reaching the most disadvantaged children in humanitarian and development settings.
We thank you all for being part of this essential journey to deliver results for every child.

UNICEF COMPENDIUM OF RESOURCE PARTNER CONTRIBUTIONS 2017 3
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Compendium of Resource Partner Contributions 2017 comprises information on revenue and contributions received from public and private sector resource partners to UNICEF1. Information presented in the Compendium demonstrates the results of extensive policy and programme partnerships between UNICEF and its resource partners. The Compendium is not an official UNICEF financial document, but it draws largely on financial data and is predominantly intended as a practical and illustrative report for resource partners.
UNICEF revised its accounting policy effective 2017 to recognize revenue in the year an agreement is signed, even for multi-year agreements. Total revenue to UNICEF increased from $5,191 million in 2016 to $6,577 million in 2017, representing a 27 per cent or $1,386 million increase2. Un-earmarked Regular Resources (RR) amounted to $1,424 million reflecting an 8 per cent or $107 million increase compared to $1,317 million in 2016. Public sector RR increased 1 per cent from $574 million to $580 million, while private sector RR increased 13 per cent from $622 million to $706 million. Regular Resources as a proportion of overall revenue fell from 25 per cent to 22 per cent. Earmarked Other Resources revenue increased by 33 per cent, to $5,153 million, of which $3,026 million or 59 per cent came in the form of Other Resources (regular) and $2,127 million or 41 per cent in the form of Other Resources (emergency).
Public sector revenue constituted a record 72 per cent or $4,729 million of total revenue. This was made up mostly by contributions from Government and Inter-organizational partners. The three largest public sector partners were the United States of America, the United Kingdom and the European Commission. Private sector revenue inclusive of global programme partnerships also stood at
a record high at $1,710 million3. The three largest private sector partners were the National Committees of United States of America, Japan and Republic of Korea. Other Revenue classified as RR, includes revenue from interest, procurement services and other sources, totalled $138 million or 2 per cent of overall revenue.
With the support of our partners, we made a remarkable difference to the situation of children worldwide, in 2017. As outlined in the Executive Board endorsed Strategic Plan 2018 – 2021, UNICEF will continue to strengthen public- and private-sector partnerships as a key strategy for delivering results for children, especially the most vulnerable.

1 All figures in this report have been rounded and are subject to audit.2 2016 revenue restated to reflect change in accounting policy for comparison with 2017.3 2017 includes $36 million contributions for specific management activities.
New Revenue Recognition Policy:
Revenue: The UNICEF policy for recognizing revenue from voluntary contributions was revised effective 2017. Under the previous policy, UNICEF recognized revenue based on payment plan due dates included in the resource partner agreements. Under the new policy, revenue is recognized in full, including for multi-year contributions, at the time the agreement is signed with the partner.
Contributions Received: Cash and contributions in kind received from resource partners within a calendar year.
Revenue can represent voluntary contributions intended to be used in programmatic activities over multiple years while contributions received relate to the financial year in question.

REACHING CHILDREN IN THE GREATEST NEED WITH REGULAR RESOURCES
A strong investment in unrestricted Regular Resources by partners allowed UNICEF in 2017 to reach the children who were in the greatest need and at the greatest risk. Regular Resources were an indispensable part of UNICEF’s programming and humanitarian response, enabling us to elevate various interventions.
In Mali, the availability of Regular Resources (RR) was instrumental to strengthen the systems for delivery of key nutrition interventions. UNICEF and partners provided the first dose of Vitamin A supplementation to 4.7 million children and 4.6 million children with deworming medication, covering 99 per cent of the targeted group. Some 6,000 children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) were treated. In addition, UNICEF supported a study of the integration of SAM screening into malaria campaigns, and found that it was an effective means of strengthening the ownership of SAM treatment by health systems and communities.
Using RR, UNICEF advocacy and technical assistance to the Government of India, resulted in the expansion of the government’s campaign to end open defaecation. In 2017 alone, the government-led Swachh Bharat Mission (a clean-up campaign of India’s urban and rural areas), reached 130 million people and 27.5 million new latrines were built across the country. UNICEF supported the government to reach vulnerable households through
various strategic partnerships with civil societies and local non-governmental organizations as well as through communication and media outreach. Furthermore, UNICEF promoted hygiene in schools in 14 states by empowering children to become agents of change for their communities.
In humanitarian crises, RR provide flexible and timely funding to deliver life-saving aid. As Yemen continued to experience one of the world’s largest and most complex humanitarian crisis, RR were critical to UNICEF’s efforts to deliver a range of lifesaving services. In our interventions for children under-5, over 4.8 million children were vaccinated against polio, 2.6 million children were screened for malnutrition and 4.7 million children were supplied with micronutrient supplementation. Through school rehabilitations, establishment of temporary learning spaces and provision of classroom furniture, UNICEF provided access to education for 1.3 million children. We reached more than 4.3 million people following the rehabilitation of water and sanitation systems in urban and rural areas and over 595,000 pregnant and lactating women received peri-natal health services.
These achievements were made possible by the flexible resources contributed by our resource partners allowing us to respond quickly, where the need was greatest.

ADVANCING TRANSPARENCY ACROSS UNICEF
Since becoming a signatory of the International Aid Transparency Initiative (IATI), UNICEF, which is ranked the third most transparent out of 46 major donor organizations worldwide, has pursued a series of measures to support its commitment to greater transparency and accountability. We have strategically combined innovative technology and stakeholder engagement over the years to build on the quality and depth of programme and financial data released to the public.
In 2017, UNICEF placed greater focus on improving internal data quality assurance mechanisms, consolidating the technical infrastructure for transparency and external reach, and collaborating with other UN entities.
Strengthening at global, regional and country-level use of IATI data: More and more data on development cooperation has become available in public domain through IATI. Aid data that is traditionally collected by Governments directly from development partners for use in Aid Management Systems (AIMS) is now published through IATI and readily accessible in public domain. In 2017, UNICEF partnered with the Governments of Madagascar and Senegal to pilot an IATI data use initiative, to import IATI data into national systems and provide a complete picture of the aid chain and automating processes.
This pilot demonstrated the value of IATI data in reducing the burden on governments, and UNICEF country offices for reporting and collecting data. This initiative responded
to UNICEF’s Grand Bargain commitment to ‘full utilization of the IATI data model for government reporting on humanitarian funding in at least two country offices by the end of 2017.’ The lessons learnt from the pilot are now being used by several donors to take the IATI-AIMS linkages to scale in other countries.
Widening IATI memberships across the UN: As a Member of IATI’s Governing Board representing multilateral agencies, UNICEF actively advocated for increased use of the IATI standard in reporting on development programmes. In 2017, UNICEF successfully led negotiations for reduced membership contributions of UN agencies translating in direct savings of $750,000 to the UN system. Additional advocacy resulted in widening of IATI membership beyond United Nations Development Group to include all UN Secretariat agencies.
UNICEF’s goal is to go beyond compliance to the IATI Common Standard and exceed global aid transparency standards in how we deliver better results for the most vulnerable children; a firm commitment outlined in the Strategic Plan 2018-2021. To achieve these goals, UNICEF will maximize on the progress made over the last four years to establish a culture of transparency across UNICEF and advocate the use of IATI for results monitoring and reporting against the Sustainable Development Goals within the UN System.

GLOBAL SHARED SERVICES CENTRE DRIVES EFFICIENCY AND COST SAVINGS
Cost savings, freed up time for staff to support critical responses for children, reduced risk, improved quality and value-for-money were the key drivers for the establishment of UNICEF’s Global Shared Services Centre (GSSC) in Budapest, Hungary in 2015, and continue to define the Centre’s strategic priorities and shape improvement initiatives.
In 2017, its first full-year of operations, the Centre generated estimated savings of $25 million in transaction costs for UNICEF. Economies of scale due to consolidation of global processing of human resources, payroll, invoice, payments, master data transactions, and global customer care combined with lower operating costs in Budapest constituted the GSSC’s annual savings calculation.
Before the GSSC, over 40 per cent of UNICEF’s workforce performed operational transactions – significantly higher than the 15 per cent industry median. The establishment of the GSSC targeted time savings of over 760,000 hours, or 427 full-time staff equivalents, for offices, based on original transaction volume estimates. Time that was previously spent by staff on transactional heavy processes has now been redirected to support critical programmatic and humanitarian responses that directly impact the lives of children.
The Centre realized further savings of approximately $2.5 million in 2017 because of process simplifications and absorption of additional functions. This included centralization of medical clearances at the GSSC, expansion of e-banking for vendor and payroll payments and increased automation of information technology processes.
Its 300-specialized staff have also significantly improved overall quality, transaction time, throughput and customer service for UNICEF’s 13,000 staff and 395 offices worldwide, measured against agreed global service level targets. End-to-end visibility of global transaction processes also provides UNICEF with the opportunity to better identify risks, apply fraud prevention measures and follow-up on potential irregularities.
The Centre remains well-positioned to continue identifying improvement opportunities aimed at driving greater efficiency and cost savings across the organization and for strengthened coordination of business operations with other UN entities.
UNICEF staff conduct a rapid assessment of the situation of newly arrived displaced families and children in a shelter in Homs evacuated from besieged cities in northern Syria. The GSSC provides accelerated service response times for offices in emergency contexts and offices supporting emergency countries.

VALUE FOR MONEY FROM UNICEF SUPPLY CHAIN
In 2012, UNICEF set a target of $810 million worth of procurement savings/cost avoidance by 2017. By the end of the period, UNICEF had exceeded this target by 153 per cent.
Over the intervening six-year period, average annual savings (i.e. cost avoidance) were $341.8 million; amounting to a total of $2.051 billion.
Savings at this scale demonstrate that UNICEF has integrated value for money in its strategic efforts to influence markets. The savings secured have mostly benefited governments and other partners, freeing more money to buy more products for children.
To achieve these savings, UNICEF’s commitment to price transparency was extended from vaccines to other significant product groups such as cold chain equipment, injection equipment, long-lasting insecticidal bed nets (LLINs), and ready-to-use therapeutic food (RUTF).
Price transparency, publication of market updates, and regular global industry dialogues, reduced market asymmetries and enabled markets to function more efficiently, resulting in increased competition and lower prices.
UNICEF, in partnership with other actors, also utilized strategic procurement including use of special contracting and innovative financing to influence markets and unlock value. Strategic procurement activities in 2017 covered a wide range of supplies and services including amoxicillin, micronutrient powder, laboratory services, children’s winter clothes kits, and a range of vaccines including against pneumonia, measles, yellow fever, and meningitis.

Strategic tendering undertaken, 2012 – 2017
Cases
• Procurement of rotavirus and pentavalent vaccines utilized a range of special contracting and strategic tender modalities very effectively, to generate savings of $1.295 billion over the six years, 2012-2017. UNICEF and our partners (Gavi, Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, World Health Organization) have influenced this market to the point that there is no tiered pricing employed to differentiate low and middle income countries.
• Procurement for LLINs yielded $63.3 million in savings over the six years thanks to the collaborative approach fostered among the major buyers (UNICEF, the Global Fund, United States Agency for International Development, and Department for International Development) to influence the market in unison. Products were standardized, with the range of sizes and specifications reduced from more than 40 to less than 10 products. UNICEF convened suppliers and partners in joint industry forums to discuss forecasts and synchronize the procurement timing to minimize supplier transaction costs.

An unprecedented number of complex and large-scale emergencies severely stretched UNICEF’s efforts to protect the rights of children in among others Bangladesh, Democratic Republic of Congo, Iraq, Nigeria, South Sudan, Syria, and Yemen. Additionally, renewed violence in Myanmar led to a massive arrival of Rohingya refugees to Bangladesh, many of whom were children, in August 2017.
By the end of 2017, UNICEF humanitarian appeals amounted to $3.79 billion to assist 136 million people, including 60 million children. While the total amount of funding from partners in 2017 was similar to the previous year, given the extraordinary number of affected children, resources fell short. More than half of the total funds available went to Syrian refugees living in neighbouring host countries, South Sudan and Yemen.
On the other hand, only 2 per cent of the total funds available covered nine emergencies: Angola, Burundian refugees, the Caribbean hurricanes, the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea, Djibouti, Eritrea, Libya, Mali and Nepal. Needs often went unmet for large-scale protracted crises such as in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, for which only 43 per cent of the funding requested was secured.
Of the total humanitarian revenue, $1,939 million or 91% came from the public sector, while the remaining $188 million or 9% was provided by the private sector.

THEMATIC CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED, 2017
Thematic funds are soft-earmarked pooled funds categorized as Other Resources that directly support the achievement of key results aligned with the Strategic Plan. These funds allow for long-term planning, sustainability and savings in transaction costs for both UNICEF and its Resource Partners.
In 2017, overall thematic funding for the seven Strategic Plan outcome areas and Gender was $199 million, and thematic humanitarian was $164 million. This represents an increase in thematic funding of 16% versus 2016. For the second time, partners contributed thematic funds for Gender programming. Thematic funding accounted for
8% of total earmarked Other Resources funding, which is at the same level as in 2016.
The top 10 resource partners to thematic funding contributed $289 million or 80% of the total thematic contributions to UNICEF. These partners provided 87% of total thematic funding for the Strategic Plan outcome areas including Gender, and 70% of humanitarian thematic funding.
The top three partners comprised the Governments of Norway and Sweden, and the National Committee of Germany. These three partners contributed 50% of thematic funding from the top 10 partners.

PARTNERSHIPS WITH MULTI-LATERALS CONTRIBUTE TO RESULTS FOR CHILDREN
Policies and strategies of Global Programme Partnerships (GPPs) and International Financial Institutions (IFIs) informed and shaped partnership opportunities and resources in support of programme countries, especially those affected by fragility, violence and conflict.
In 2017, UNICEF steered new breakthrough strategic partnerships for children, including in countries affected by fragility, violence and conflict. Two Strategic Partnership Frameworks were signed with the WBG - International Development Association and Islamic Development Bank, providing opportunities for systemic engagement at the global, regional and country levels under a global umbrella.
Leveraging GPP opportunitiesUNICEF continued close engagement with the Secretariats and Boards of GPPs in 2017, including Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance, the Global Partnership for Education (GPE) and the Global Fund. Focus remains on support to programme countries in accessing and implementing GPP funding through support at global, regional and country level, including direct engagement of UNICEF country offices in local partner coordination mechanisms. Funds managed by UNICEF from Gavi, the Global Fund and GPE – including via programme countries –were $165.6 million, $54.9 million and $52.3 million respectively in 2017 in support of more than 50 countries.
Innovative FinancingTo catalyze resources to deliver on the sustainable development goals commitments, innovative financing approaches play an increasingly important role in development finance. UNICEF’s Vaccine Independence Initiative (VII) counts among its first successfully implemented innovative financing initiatives. Through VII, UNICEF gives countries access to short-term bridge funding so that they can purchase vaccines while waiting for the release of national budget funds. The financing helps countries secure a sustainable supply of life-saving vaccines and other important health commodities. In 2017, VII’s funding more than doubled from $15 million to $35 million mainly thanks to a $15 million financial guarantee from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Another example is UNICEF’s Public Finance for Children (PF4C) Framework, which contributes to the realization of children’s rights by supporting the best possible use of countries’ public budgets. Going forward, UNICEF will continue to explore public-private partnerships across the humanitarian-development nexus to develop products, financial innovations and technologies in the design and delivery of key services. These partnerships would include for example blended finance in water sanitation and hygiene (WASH) that combine private sector know-how and capital investments, with public sector guarantees and concessional finance, to effectively and efficiently deliver social infrastructure financing facilitated by UNICEF’s presence on the ground.
Case Study - UNICEF, World Bank Group Supporting Vulnerable Families with Cash TransferTo build resilience and protect human capital in an active conflict, the WBG - International Development Association and UNICEF launched, the Emergency Cash Transfer Programme in Yemen in 2017. Jointly we delivered cash transfers to over 1.3 million families, totalling almost 9 million Yemenis (approximately 30 per cent of the population) in the first cycle.
This project supports vulnerable families and individuals across all Yemen with unconditional cash assistance in response to the socio-economic crisis. The WBG - International Development Association and UNICEF’s longer term objective in Yemen is to revive and strengthen national social protection mechanisms such as the social welfare fund, so that they can provide cash assistance to those in need, in a sustainable manner.
Case Study – UNICEF supports 62 countries under the Gavi Alliance Partners’ Engagement FrameworkUNICEF collaborated as an active partner of the Gavi Alliance under the Gavi Partners’ Engagement Framework to improve equitable coverage, which in 2017 supported 62 priority countries. UNICEF provided support in strategic areas critical to reach every woman and every child with life-saving vaccines: supply chain, data, demand and sustainability. Highlights include the roll-out of the cold chain equipment platform that has enabled countries, such as Haiti, to move towards a fully solarized cold chain system thus harnessing renewable energy. Furthermore, UNICEF is working with the Gavi Alliance in several countries to address immunization inequities that are especially high in urban slums which require targeted strategies and solutions.

CONTRIBUTIONS RECEIVED THROUGH INTER-ORGANIZATIONAL ARRANGEMENTS, 2014-20171,2
UNICEF continued its participation in UN Coherence and inter-organizational partnership arrangements through a variety of pooled funds and joint programmes. Contributions from Inter-organizational arrangements increased overall by 94% (or $337 million) from $359 million in 2016 to $696 million in 2017.
This increase was largely driven by contributions received from the World Bank Group – International Development Association ($351 million) in response to the Yemen crisis.
This represents an increase in Other Resources (regular) by 177% (or $336 million) from $190 million in 2016 to $525 million in 2017 and an increase in Other Resources (emergency) by 1% (or $1 million) from $170 million in 2016 to $171 million in 2017.
The leading top three contributors to UNICEF included funding through the World Bank Group - International Development Association, Central Emergency Response Fund and Global Partnership for Education.

UN JOINT RESULTS FOR CHILDREN
Achieving the goals set out in the 2030 Agenda and the yearly $5 trillion resource investment requires improved financing mechanisms, innovative approaches, pooling of resources and enhanced UN partnerships. The interdisciplinary nature of the Sustainable Development Goals also calls for an integrated multi-sectorial and multi-partner approach to support national development plans. Building on these, UNICEF Strategic Plan 2018-2021 has now incorporated UN partnerships and strengthening coherence as one of the critical change strategies to deliver results with targets to measure the participation of UNICEF in Joint Programmes/Pooled Funds:
In 2017, overall contributions to UNICEF from pooled funds and joint programmes were $182 million, a 39% decrease, compared to $298 million in 2014.
Pooled funds at the global level:Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF): Since its establishment, CERF has supported UNICEF’s humanitarian operations in almost 100 countries with millions of children receiving critical lifesaving, and protecting programmes. By the end of 2017, this support surpassed $1.2 billion with aid delivered in complex and protracted crises which remain unheard, unseen, and underfunded. The funding was also critical for supporting response in acute emergencies. In 2017, UNICEF received $108.9 million in CERF grants, 26 countries received support through the rapid response window, while 13 countries received support through the under-funded window. UNICEF fully supports the Secretary General’s call to increase the CERF to $1 billion. A larger and more robust CERF is critical to providing more life-saving assistance for millions of children and their families.
Pooled funds at the country level:Health Development Fund: The Health Development Fund (HDF) is a pooled fund arrangement established to strengthen the health system in Zimbabwe aligned with the country’s national health strategy and United Nations Development Assistance Framework priorities. It covers the period 2016-2020; targets women, children, adolescents and sets a target of reducing both maternal and under-five mortality rates by 50%. In 2017, 1,520 new village health workers were trained to provide a comprehensive package of basic
preventive, promotive and curative health, nutrition, Water, Sanitation and Hygiene and HIV and AIDS services including in cross-cutting issues such as gender, psychosocial support, communication for development and disability. Nearly, 41,000 pregnant women (with 45,000 targeted by year end) were referred from the community to health facilities for antenatal care booking before 14 weeks by September 2017. UNICEF, UNAIDS and UNFPA, are supporting the finalization of the Community Systems Strengthening Framework. It builds a foundation for the development of a broader community health worker strategy in Zimbabwe. The fund has attracted several donors including Department for International Development (DFID), European Union, Global Affairs Canada and Irish Aid.
Emergency Cash Transfers:The World Food Programme (WFP) and UNICEF supported the Government of Dominica in providing Emergency Cash Transfers (ECT) to 25,000 people most affected by Hurricane Maria. The ECT programme was built on the existing Public Assistance Programme run by the Ministry of Social Services, Family and Gender Affairs. For three months 8,300 families received a payment of between S$90 and US$239 per month depending on the number of children in the household to meet their basic needs, including food, clothes, hygiene items, and school supplies for children. Implementation was made possible thanks to the contributions of DFID, the US Agency for International Development (USAID), Canada, CERF, the Swedish International Development Agency and MasterCard.
Country-based Pooled Funds (CBPF):Since the 2005 Humanitarian Reform agenda, UNICEF has been a top recipient of CBPFs, having received over $610 million in grant allocations during the period 2007 - 2017. In 2017, UNICEF received 21 per cent of all CBPFs allocations. The funding has supported UNICEF’s humanitarian operations in 12 countries, with millions of children and their communities reached. A total of $48.3 million was allocated for critical UNICEF programmes in Afghanistan, the Central African Republic, Ethiopia, Iraq, Nigeria, Pakistan, Somalia, South Sudan, State of Palestine, Sudan, Syria, and Yemen.
The Joint Fund for Agenda 2030 is a key instrument within the UN Reform and a catalytic grant for UN country teams to unblock key policy bottlenecks inhibiting the advancement of 2030 Agenda and unlocking SDG financing in support of SDG implementation by governments. Approximately $91.5 million has been committed has been committed by Governments of Ireland, European Union, Germany, Luxembourg, Spain, Swiss Development Cooperation, Sweden, and US.

FUNDING GAPS BY STRATEGIC PLAN OUTCOME AREA
For the 2014-2017 quadrennium, five of the seven Strategic Plan outcome areas recorded a positive fulfilment against original planned amounts largely due to an increase in Other Resources (emergency). Emergency appeals through the Humanitarian Action for Children (HAC) were however only funded approximately 50% over the same
quadrennium. The HIV and AIDS and Social Inclusion outcome areas recorded funding gaps against plan of 53% and 27%, respectively. Regular Resources were under-funded against planned amounts for four of the seven outcome areas, including Health; HIV and AIDS; Water, Sanitation and Hygiene; and Education.
RR funding gaps impact results
¹ Expenses as proxy for funding.
Mali case studyIn Mali, the availability of Regular Resources was instrumental to close the critical humanitarian funding shortfall of $28.2 million to address severe and acute malnutrition for children under-5.
In 2017, although the funding targets to cover the procurement of ready-to-use therapeutic food for the treatment of severely malnourished children in Mali were met, an important funding gap remained for nutrition prevention activities, with only $1.2 million of the planned $7.6 million budget.
This affected implementation of activities such as
• the prevention and treatment of micronutrient deficiencies. For example, less than 40% of children under-5 in Mali received the required doses of vitamin A supplementation in 2017.
• the promotion of infant and young child feeding practices especially in regions of the North and central affected by the security crisis. The percentage of infants less than 6 months exclusively breastfed remained very low in 2017, with a national average of 37% and rates as low as 9.5% and 22% in Gao and Timbuktu respectively – two regions directly affected by the security crisis.
Yemen case studyMore could have been done had 2017 regular resource targets been met in Yemen. For example, UNICEF, could have:
• printed one million birth certificates for children who had not previously been registered. Without such registration, many children struggle to access basic services.
• better supported the development of Standard Operating Procedures to establish referral pathways for child protection case managers and other service providers. This would ensure children are identified and receive the appropriate treatment for a range of protection issues.

GLOBAL AID ENVIRONMENT, 20171
In 2017, net Official Development Aid (ODA) by members of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) Development Assistance Committee (DAC), was $146.6 billion, representing a slight fall of 0.6% in real terms versus 2016. As a share of gross national income, ODA also fell marginally from 0.32% to 0.31%. The fall reflects the decline of the refugee crisis. Excluding in-donor refugee costs, ODA increased by 1.1% in real terms
compared to 2016, and has doubled since 2000. The data estimates for bilateral ODA to Africa was about $29 billion, with aid to sub-Saharan Africa around $25 billion, reflecting an increase of about 3% in both. Preliminary estimates show that net bilateral ODA flows from DAC countries to the group of least developed countries increased by 4% in real terms to about $26 billion.

GLOSSARY
Central Emergency Response Fund (United Nations) An emergency fund administered by the United Nations Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (UNOCHA), from which UN agencies can receive advances for financing emergency operations.
Country-Based Pooled Funds (CBPFs) Multi-donor humanitarian financing instruments established by the Emergency Relief Coordinator (ERC). They are managed by OCHA at the country-level under the leadership of the Humanitarian Coordinator (HC). Donor contributions to each CBPF are un-earmarked and allocated by the HC through an in-country consultative process.
Inter-organizational Arrangements Arrangements that include, among others, contributions received through UNAIDS, UNDG, UNDP, UNFPA, UNOCHA, UNTFHS, WHO, and the World Bank Group - International Development Association (WBG-IDA). Funding from these sources is mostly directed to humanitarian responses and includes, among other, income from various pooled funding mechanisms, such as grants from the UNOCHA managed CERF (see above) and multi-partner trust fund contributions.
Other Resources Earmarked contributions for programmes; these are supplementary to the contributions in un-earmarked Regular Resources and are made for a specific purpose such as an emergency response or a specific programme in a country or region (can be emergency o see below).
Other Resources (emergency) ORE are funds specifically provided by Resource Partners for UNICEF’s humanitarian action and post crisis recovery activities. In addition to UNICEF’s traditional resource partners, important sources of funding for ORE are the inter-organisational arrangements including the CERF and the MDTFs. Funding for ORE is raised through the UNICEF Humanitarian Action for Children (HAC), Flash Appeals, the UN consolidated Humanitarian Needs Overview (HNO), and the UN Strategic Response Plan (SRP).
Other Resources (regular) Funds for specific, non-emergency programme purposes, and strategic priorities. ORR allow UNICEF to implement the specific projects at global, regional, and country levels in support of the approved country programmes. The ORR that UNICEF uses most strategically are those that are flexible both in their purpose and in their duration.
Private Sector Funding received from a grouping of Resource Partners that includes UNICEF’s National Committees, UNICEF Country Office private sector fundraising (PSFR), NGOs, GPPs, foundations, corporations, and individuals.
Public Sector Funding received from a grouping of Resource Partners that includes governments, inter-governmental bodies, and inter-organisational arrangements.
Rapid Response Mechanism The Rapid Response Mechanism is an operational, programmatic and partnership model designed to enhance UNICEF’s capacity to respond in a timely, coordinated and predictable manner to the needs of populations made vulnerable by displacement, disease and/or natural disasters in humanitarian/ emergency settings.
Regular Resources (RR) Un-earmarked funds that are foundational to delivering results across the Strategic Plan. They mainly include, revenue from the voluntary annual contributions of governments and un-earmarked funds contributed by National Committees, which mobilize resources through fundraising appeals and ongoing relationships with individuals, civil society groups, companies, and foundations.
Strategic Plan (SP) A plan of action for UNICEF to take place from 2018-2021 that outlines the organisational priorities, the 5 goal areas, - Every child survives and thrives, Every child learns, Every child is protected from violence and exploitation, Every child lines in a safe and clean environment, Every child has an equitable chance in life, are central to driving progress towards the achievement of the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals
Thematic Funding Thematic Funding contributions are pooled funds designed to support the achievement of outcomes or results in the Strategic Plan 2018-2021 through flexible multi-year funding window and achieve UNICEF's mandate to advocate for the protection of children’s rights, to help meet their basic needs and to expand their opportunities to reach their full potential.
UNICEF National Committee (NC) Registered non-profit structures, mostly categorized as non-governmental entities established according to national laws. Committees play a key role in mobilizing resources for UNICEF’s work. In 2016, there were 34 UNICEF NCs throughout the industrialized world.
