Key Accountability principles

• The governance structure adopted by the UNCT in
  Mozambique is based on a Cabinet model, with
  the RC as the equivalent of the Prime Minister
  and UNCT members comprised of the
  representatives of all UN agencies in Mozambique
  as the equivalent of Ministers.
• RC is Team Leader and will be consulted in the
  selection of Team Members
• RC will be providing performance feedback to
  UNCT members on their participation in Country
  Team deliberations and processes
• UNTC will, based on agreed upon management
  performance indicators, review the overall
  performance of the UNCT and propose and take
  action for enhancing its performance
• UNCT will be given the opportunity to provide
  inputs into the selection process of the Resident
  Coordinator

Lesson learned and Next Steps

• The firewall between UNDP and the Resident
  Coordinators functions has been strengthened in
  practice, and the roles and responsibilities of
  heads of agencies versus the Resident Coordinator
  have been clarified.
• The 360 performance assessment system needs to be
  refined and made to work consistently. This in
  turn will help strengthen the arbitration and
  conflict resolution role of the RC.
• Receive recommendations for the financial and
  programmatic accountability frameworks from the
  Financial Accountability Mission on TOR for UNCT
• Global Code of Conduct / UNCT management
