Humanitarian support to UNHCR in UN Consolidated and Emergency Appeals

UNHCR 2017 - ny strategi

Sweden has assessed the UN High Commissioner for Refugees as a relevant, strategic and extensive humanitarian partners with good implementation capacity in the organizational assessment (2010) and the draft organization's strategy (2011). Sidas central organisational assessment (2015) concluded that UNHCRs systems for internal control are adequate according to Sidas assessment and in line with current contribution regulations. Sida provides multi-bilateral 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. Through this support Sida contributes humanitarian funding to UNHCR in order to assist refugees and internally displaced people in armed conflict, providing protection from persecution and violence, shelter and basic necessities, as well as opportunities for durable solutions, when the situation so allows. UNHCR is responsible for leading and coordinating the Global Protection Cluster (GPC), and the clusters of camp coordination and emergency shelter in situations of armed conflict and UNHCR contributes in this role to strategic coordination within the humanitarian system both at the global and country level. This support covers both new emergencies, escalating humanitarian crises, as well as protracted refugee situations, and includes interventions in the sectors of shelter, emergency shelter and multi-sector programmes (such as health, nutrition, food, education, water and sanitation). Land allocations for 2017 includes a total of 165 MSEK with support to: Algeria (Sahrawi refugees) 5 000 000 SEK; Burundi/Rwanda 5 000 000 SEK; Democratic Republic of Congo 10 000 000 SEK; Ethiopia 8 000 000 SEK; Iraq 14 000 000 SEK; Libya 5 000 000 SEK; Mali-situation 8 000 000 SEK; Somalia-situation 10 000 000 SEK; South Sudan 15 000 000 SEK; Syria 15 000 000 SEK; Syria-situation 30 000 000 SEK; Ukraine 10 000 000 SEK; Yemen 15 000 000 SEK, SGBV strategy implementation 5 000 000 SEK. To facilitate rapid humanitarian planning and response, payment of the full amount is made at the beginning of the year after signing of the Agreement and upon request for payment by UNHCR. Sida estimates that the funds are utilized in close relation to the time of disbursement since UNHCR responds to acute and protracted refugee crises in a large number of refugee situations globally, and have 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 whole 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 arise.
