Humanitarian support to UNHCR in UN Consolidated and Emergency Appeals

UNHCR 2017 - ny strategi

Sida has assessed the UN High Commissioner for Refugees as a relevant and strategic humanitarian partner with good implementation capacity. Sida’s Central Organisational Assessment of UNHCR (2015) concludes that the organisation’s systems for internal control are adequate according and in line with Sida contribution regulations. Sida provides support, in addition to the MFA's annual core contribution, based on the UN Consolidated Appeals (HRP) and UNHCRs Global Appeal, Supplementary Budget Appeals and UNHCR Regional Response Plans (RRRP). Sida allocates funding to UNHCR on a country / regional level and support is unearmarked at this level. During the year Sida assesses UNHCR's Supplementary Appeals for possible additional funding through supplementary decisions. With its mandate, to protect refugees, forcibly displaced communities and stateless people, and assist in their voluntary repatriation, local integration or resettlement to a third country, UNHCR is alongside ICRC Sida’s key protection partner. In addition to its operational role in the protection of refugees, UNHCR has a normative role in monitoring and interpreting the Refugee Convention. UNHCR is the lead Agency in Refugee operations within the humanitarian system with responsibility to coordinate UN agencies and NGOs response in refugee crisis. This includes coordination of several regional refugee appeals such as Syria, Horn of Africa, Nigeria, South Sudan, Yemen, CAR, Burundi and Europe. UNHCR coordinates its response under OCHA in emergency within countries (internally displaced people). UNHCR is responsible for leading and coordinating the Protection Cluster, the clusters of Camp Coordination and Camp Management, as well as the Emergency Shelter cluster. UNHCR is thereby contributing strategically to the humanitarian system, at global, regional and country level. Through this support Sida contributes humanitarian funding to UNHCR in order to assist refugees and internally displaced people in armed conflict, providing legal protection from persecution and violence, emergency shelter (tents, semi-permanent structures, rent for temporary accommodation) and basic necessities (such as food, water, hygiene and primary health care, etc), as well as opportunities for durable solutions, when the situation so allows. The country allocations for 2018 includes a total of 235 MSEK with support to the following crisis: DRC 20 MSEK, Ethiopia 10 MSEK, Iraq 14 MSEK, Yemen 20 MSEK, Myanmar crisis response in Bangladesh 5 MSEK, Mali 7 MSEK, Somalia crisis response in Somalia 5 MSEK, Somalia crisis response in Kenya 5 MSEK, Sudan 5 MSEK, South Sudan crisis regional response 28 MSEK, Syria crisis response in Syria 25 MSEK, Syria crisis response in regional response 30 MSEK, Ukraine 10 MSEK, Algeria 5 MSEK, Burundi crisis response in Burundi 6 MSEK, Burundi crisis regional response 10 MSEK, Libya 5 MSEK, support for prevention of SGBV 5 MSEK and unallocated (to be defined during year) 20 MSEK. To facilitate rapid humanitarian planning and response, disbursement of the full amount is made at the beginning of the year after signing of the Agreement and upon disbursement request from UNHCR. Funds are utilized within a short timeframe after disbursement and UNHCR has a general utilization rate of 98% of the annual contributions. It is Sida's experience that funds available for activities at the country level rarely reaches or exceeds UNHCR's total funding needs. The funding level for UNHCR is generally about 50% of the annual budget. In the exceptional case that UNHCR has not utilized the entire Sida contribution by the end of the year, Sida has been duly informed and the balance have been regulated in accordance with the agreement. The proposed payment plan is thus in line with Sida's rule for contribution management § 2.8.4, which stipulates that payment will be made in close connection with the time when the funds will be used, and as the funding needs ar
