On 19 November 2015, Kareena Tamang, 15, smiled as she held her one-year-old sister
Dikshya in Dhunche, the district headquarters of Rasuwa, one of the districts in Nepal
that was worst affected by the April 25th earthquake earlier in the year. Thulo Haku
village, where Kareena Tamang's family used to live, was heavily devastated and almost
every household there was displaced. Since then, Tamang, her siblings and their mother
have been living in Dhunche, where their only shelter is a tiny tent made of tarpaulin.
Many young displaced students like Tamang were concerned with the arrival of winter
as their shelters and schools were not winter resistant. Families were not equipped with
enough winter clothes, shoes or warm blankets.
UNICEF started its response to the disaster from day one on April 25th. It immediately
released emergency supplies which had been pre-positioned in four warehouses in
the country. The supplies provided a life-saving bridge before additional large quantities
of supplies started to arrive in Nepal from outside the country. UNICEF launched an
emergency appeal to cover the needs of the immediate response and early recovery
phases. By using resources contributed towards this emergency appeal, UNICEF
supported a number of life-saving activities across the areas of health; nutrition; water,
sanitation and hygiene (WASH); education; child protection; and social protection. In
addition, UNICEF helped disseminate messages to assist children and their families
stay safe and healthy during the disaster, as well as information on relief efforts in their
communities. As of 12 April 2016, the total value of UNICEF supplies received amounted
to $34.75 million, out of which $30.85 million worth of supplies had been distributed.
The supplies included tents; hygiene kits; vaccines; water purification solutions; vitamins
and therapeutic foods; medical supplies and kits; bed nets; information, education and
communication materials; and school, recreational and early childhood development kits,
among others.

NOTE OF THANKS
Dear Partner,
The year 2015 was one of unprecedented political resolve to address some of our time’s greatest global challenges. With
the adoption of the Addis Ababa Action Agenda (financing for development), the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development
and the COP21 Climate Change Agreement, the world has demonstrated its commitment to a new global development cooperation modus operandi.
It was a year of transition, as the world moved from the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) to the Sustainable
Development Goals (SDGs). We have seen huge progress in the last 15 years; yet, UNICEF’s final report on the childrelated MDGs also demonstrated that unequal opportunities have left millions of children living in poverty. The 17 SDGs
set multiple, ambitious, child-centred targets that demand both significant and sustained investment and the formation of
powerful, new models of collaboration. Partnerships are at the heart of the SDGs, with Goal 17 emphasizing the crucial role
of all partners – public and private, domestic and international – in achieving the goals.
The year 2015 will also be remembered as one of devastating, pervasive conflicts and natural disasters in many parts
of the world. UNICEF responded to 310 humanitarian situations in 102 countries – including protracted conflicts in the
Central African Republic, South Sudan and the Syrian Arab Republic; health emergencies in West Africa and Latin America;
earthquakes, typhoons, droughts; and the refugee and migrant crisis in Europe. In humanitarian situations alone, 43.5
million children were vaccinated against measles and 7.5 million children were given access to formal and non-formal basic
education. The organization’s emergency revenue reached an unprecedented $1.8 billion in 2015, a 13 per cent increase
compared with 2014. UNICEF is increasingly looking at the humanitarian-development continuum, mindful that lack of
development can cause and exacerbate conflicts and natural disasters, just as strong and sustainable development can
reduce the likelihood of future crises.
UNICEF's overall revenue in 2015 was $5.0 billion, a slight decrease from $5.2 billion in 2014. To be fit to deliver on its
mandate for the world's children, particularly the most disadvantaged, UNICEF relies on flexible funding sources aligned
with its Strategic Plan. Un-earmarked Regular Resources declined in absolute terms from $1.3 billion in 2014 to $1.2 billion
in 2015, falling to a 23 per cent share of total revenue. The softly earmarked thematic pools saw a welcome 14.5 per cent
increase compared with 2014, totalling $390 million in 2015, yet remained stubbornly at 10 per cent of overall earmarked funds.
In 2015, the United Nations Economic and Social Council adopted a resolution in which it reiterated that “core resources,
because of their untied nature, continue to be the bedrock of the operational activities for development of the United
Nations system.” The resolution recognized the important complementarity between core and non-core resources, but
highlighted a concerning imbalance between the two. Yet, the trend seems to be that the imbalance continues growing
year by year, putting at real risk the ability of UN organizations to fulfil their core mandates. For an agile, efficient response,
it is critical that UNICEF and partners can identify solid ways to broaden and strengthen a flexible, predictable funding base.
UNICEF is broadening its funding base, including through innovative multi-partner funding models. In Water, Sanitation and
Hygiene, for example, UNICEF is exploring blended finance models that bring together private sector investors, multilateral
development banks and local water providers, where UNICEF would provide assistance on the ground. UNICEF will also
host UNITLIFE, a new financing partnership that will use revenues from the extractives industries sector to fight chronic
malnutrition in sub-Saharan Africa. The initiative is being championed by the Governments of Congo, Guinea, Mali and Niger.
UNICEF continues to place the highest priority on accountability, efficiency, transparency and risk management throughout
its work. In early 2016, the organization ranked third out of 46 entities on the global Aid Transparency Index. UNICEF
was also recognized as the agency that has made the most progress since 2013. As an efficiency measure, the new
Global Shared Service Centre became operational in September 2015, and performs global finance, human resources,
administrative and information technology functions. In 2012, UNICEF supply set a target of savings/cost avoidance of
$810 million by 2017. By the end of 2015, UNICEF was already 34 per cent above the target with savings in excess of
$1 billion.
This compendium celebrates the role our Resource Partners – public and private – have in working with us to realize
the rights of every child, especially the most vulnerable.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Compendium of Resource
Partner Contributions 2015 comprises
information on contributions from
public and private sector Resource
Partners to UNICEF.1 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.
In 2015, Net Official Development Aid
flows (ODA) from member countries
of the Development Assistance
Committee members (DAC) of the
OECD totalled $131.6 billion. Adjusting
for inflation and the appreciation
of the US dollar, this represents an
increase of 6.9 per cent in real terms,
the highest level ever achieved for
net ODA.2 Net ODA as a share of
gross national income (GNI) for DAC
members was 0.30 per cent, on
par with 2014. Despite the adverse
economic situation in several DAC
member countries, which has led to
cuts in aid budgets, overall levels of
ODA continue to grow.
Total revenue to UNICEF decreased
from the historic high of $5,169 million
in 2014 to $5,010 million in 2015,
representing a drop of 3 per cent (or
$160 million),3 but was nevertheless the
second largest on record. Un-earmarked
Regular Resources (RR) amounted
to $1,174 million. Slowing economic
growth and currency fluctuations,
particularly of major European
currencies and the Japanese yen
vis-à-vis the US dollar, resulted in
an overall decrease of 11 per cent
(or $152 million) of RR compared
to $1,326 million in 2014. Exchange
rate variations accounted for
$51 million of this drop. Public
sector RR decreased 17 per cent
from $660 million to $546 million,
while private sector RR decreased
7 per cent from $572 million to
$530 million.
The share of RR has been steadily
decreasing from approximately
50 per cent of overall revenue in
2000 to 23 per cent in 2015. This
was the lowest share of RR funding
in UNICEF’s history. The smaller base
of RR poses a challenge as it limits
the agility and efficiency of UNICEF
in planning and working to fulfil its
mandate. A flexible, predictable
funding base provided through RR,
complemented and augmented by
OR in a balanced way, helps the
organization achieve results for
children as outlined in UNICEF’s
Strategic Plan 2014–2017.
Earmarked OR decreased slightly,
by 0.2 per cent (or $7 million)
from $3,843 million in 2014 to
$3,836 million in 2015. In total,
$2,056 million or 54 per cent came in
the form of Other Resources - Regular
(ORR) and $1,780 million or 46 per
cent in the form of Other Resources
- Emergency (ORE). The most
significant increase in 2015
was in ORE, up by 13 per cent
(or $201 million), reflecting the large
number of humanitarian emergencies
to which UNICEF responded.
Yet, with growing humanitarian
needs, emergency appeals remain
significantly underfunded as
showcased on pages 14-15.
Public sector revenue constituted
69 per cent (or $3,455 million) of total
revenue, representing a decrease of
6 per cent (or $224 million) compared
to 2014. Since 2010, this is the first
time that there has been a decline
in public sector revenue. Private
sector revenue was $1,457 million
or 29 per cent of the total UNICEF
revenue, representing an increase of
4 per cent (or $61 million) over 2014
levels. There is a growing trend of
decrease in revenue over the past
three years from NGOs. Other Income
(OI), including income from interest,
procurement services and other
sources, totaled $97 million or
2 per cent of overall revenue.
Financial resources in 2015 helped
UNICEF and partners to achieve
significant results for children. Flexible
and predictable resources are the
foundation on which UNICEF builds
programmes that transform the lives
of children. More than ever, as the
world embarks on a path to achieving
the Sustainable Development Goals,
investing in children – particularly the
poorest and the most disadvantaged –
is the right and the smart thing to do.

RESOURCES BY TYPE OF FUNDING, 2006-2015
In 2015, funding for UNICEF was over
$5 billion for the second year in a row.
At the same time, Regular Resources
(RR) continued to decrease as a share
of overall resources. At 23% in 2015,
the share of RR was at its lowest in
UNICEF's history. This has resulted in
increased challenges for UNICEF due
to the more earmarked nature of noncore funding. RR decreased by 11%
(or 152 million) from $1,326 million in
2014 to $1,174 million in 2015. Other
Resources (OR) decreased slightly by
0.2% ($7 million), from $3,843 million
in 2014 to $3,836 million in 2015.

Limits on comparability: Effective 1 January 2012, UNICEF adopted the International Public Sector Financial Reporting Standards (IPSAS) to replace the United Nations
System Accounting Standards (UNSAS), which had been in place since 1993. Through a General Assembly resolution, UN Member States requested all UN bodies to
adopt IPSAS in order to enhance the quality of financial reporting by ensuring improved transparency, accountability and governance. The change in accounting policy
does not allow direct comparisons between figures from 2012 onward, and figures prior to 2012, as it has implications for the timing of revenue recognition.

SUDAN – CASE STUDY
“In a protracted emergency context
with recurring and cyclical conflict,
floods and droughts, and over a
decade of multiple displacements,
our response aims to bridge the
humanitarian and development
divide,” explains UNICEF Sudan
Representative Geert Cappelaere.
“Protracted emergencies are
complicated to fundraise for and
we increasingly depend and rely on
flexible catalytic funding in order to
dynamically and timely address the
critical needs of children.”
In 2015, when Sudan was hit with
a tenfold measles caseload compared
with the year before, UNICEF
immediately negotiated the use
of 1.2 million existing doses of
measles vaccines procured through
its RR funding as a stopgap measure,
which enabled immunization for over
1 million children. Through the
support of the organization’s Office
of Emergency Operations and Supply
Division, UNICEF Sudan managed to
later procure an additional 9.6 million
doses of vaccine. The timeliness,
availability and flexibility of RR
was critical in getting the vaccines
in country within one month as
compared to the normal three to
six months’ supply timeframe in
Sudan, as well as in attracting
interest from other partners. A total
of 9.5 million children of a 16 million
target were reached through this

a West Darfur hospital.
@UNICEF/SUD/2015/0017/SARI OMER
phased nationwide campaign (children
aged six months to 15 years).
Thanks to RR, UNICEF was also able
to support a more sustainable water
system in the Darfur States and the
White Nile, linking camps to host
communities.
In addition, UNICEF used RR to
showcase evidence and advance
political support to critical
vulnerabilities for children. “The
country has about 120 children every
day dying because of undernutrition.
By focusing on the equity agenda,
Funding gaps impact results
Much was achieved, but more could have been done had 2015 funding
targets been met. For example UNICEF could have:
• Treated 82,822 more targeted children with Severe Acute
Malnutrition, half of them at risk of dying if not treated. (UNICEF is
targeting 250,000 children, a fraction of the 550,000 SAM children in
need of treatment.)
• Provided some 352,000 more people with lifesaving Water,
Sanitation and/or Hygiene Services. (WASH is a major underlying
cause of chronic diarrhoeal diseases and undernutrition amongst
children under 5.)
• Procured an additional 8 million doses of measles vaccines to reach
6.5 million more children still at risk in the country.
• Reached over 289,000 more emergency affected children
(50 per cent girls) with basic education services (3 million children
are out of school in Sudan).
we were able to bring to the fore the
most deprived children in non-conflictaffected areas of the country such
as the East, where the situation for
children is sometimes worse than in
the conflict affected Darfur States.
Today, the silence on malnutrition in
Sudan is broken. Together with the
Government, UNICEF as lead agency
in the sector, and other partners,
have collectively positioned nutrition
as a key national priority,” says Geert
Cappelaere.

$1,174 million in 2015 – a decrease
of 11% (or $152 million) from
$1,326 million in 2014. Of this,
$546 million or 47% was contributed by
Government Partners, and $530 million

TRANSPARENCY AT UNICEF
UNICEF has made transparency and
accountability a priority – ensuring that
information about the organization’s
funding, programmes and operations
are easily accessible to the public.
Communicating to the outside world
about how and where resources are
used is an integral part of making
UNICEF more efficient, responsive,
and collaborative – and better able
to deliver results for children.
Transparency Portal
In line with the UNICEF Information
Disclosure Policy, which outlines the
organization’s commitments to making
information about programmes and
operations available to the public,
UNICEF has set up a Transparency
Portal, where any member of the
public can explore organizational data.
An interactive flow chart on the
website allows the user to explore
where the organization’s funding came
from and where it was spent. The data
are searchable by year, by partner, by
programme area and geographically.
Made available under an Open
Database License (ODbL), the data
are extracted directly from UNICEF’s
operating system (VISION) and other
data systems, as well as direct inputs
from countries, regional offices,
and headquarters. The contents are
updated monthly, and there is an
ongoing commitment to making the
data more robust, complete and
comprehensive.
The portal also includes internal audit
reports and other documents that
demonstrate how UNICEF work and
the results achieved. These include
country programme documents,
supply and logistics data, financial
rules and regulations, and programme
results reports.
A leader in transparency
The commitment to making UNICEF
data open to the public motivates the
organization to improve its quality
and accessibility, and also enhances
visibility among key stakeholders. The
ongoing efforts have been recognized.
In 2016, UNICEF ranked third out
of 46 major organizations on the Aid
Transparency Index, an independent
measure undertaken by Publish
What You Fund. UNICEF scored
89.5 per cent against 39 core
indicators. Among all organizations
included in the Index, UNICEF has
made the most significant progress
since 2013.
In 2012, UNICEF became a
signatory to the International Aid
Transparency Initiative (IATI), a global
multi-stakeholder initiative, thereby
committing to publicly disclose
information on aid spending and
make it easier for stakeholders to
find, use and compare the data. In
early 2016, the organization was
appointed to IATI’s newly established
Governing Board, which shapes the
initiative’s vision, brand and strategy,
and determines where the initiative
is hosted. UNICEF is the only
United Nations agency and the only
multilateral organization represented
on this body.

GPP and IFI partner funding
For GPPs (Global Programme Partnerships) and IFIs (International Financial Institutions), contributions are received
directly and through Programme Country Government agreements. The latter category of contributions are
received either when governments transfer GPP/IFI funding to UNICEF, or via three-party agreements between
UNICEF, the Government, and the GPP/IFI.
• GAVI: Total direct funding to UNICEF ORE in 2015 was $2.5 million, plus $11.9 million via Programme Country
Government agreements, totalling $14.4 million in ORE.

HUMANITARIAN FUNDING, 2015
Humanitarian action is core to UNICEF’s work, encompassing effective preparedness, immediate response and early
recovery to save lives and protect child rights, as defined in the Core Commitments for Children in Humanitarian Action.
RR and ORE complement each other in funding humanitarian action. RR, for example, allows UNICEF to rapidly deploy
staff and funds to emergencies around the world, through the Emergency Programme Fund, a $75 million revolving fund
available to Field Offices in the hours and days following the onset of a crisis. By the end of 2015, UNICEF humanitarian
appeals amounted to $3.3 billion. Despite the increased generosity of Resource Partners, demands continued to be
enormous, and as a result, UNICEF appeals were only 58 per cent funded as of the end of the year. Funding for largescale crises such as in Nepal, Ebola-affected countries, Iraq, South Sudan, the Syrian Arab Republic and refugee-receiving
countries and Yemen constituted the bulk of all funding received in 2015. Protracted crises in countries such as in
Afghanistan, Eritrea, and Sudan struggled to attract resources.
The map below highlights examples of key results achieved by UNICEF and partners in some of the major
humanitarian responses in 2015 and the appeals, contributions and the funding gap for 2015.

THEMATIC REVENUE, 2015
for the Strategic Plan Outcome
Areas and 63% of the humanitarian
thematic funding.
Thematic funds are soft-earmarked
pooled funds categorized as OR that
directly support the achievement of
key results aligned with the Strategic
Plan. These funds allow long-term
planning, sustainability and savings
in transaction costs for both UNICEF
and its Resource Partners. In 2015,
overall thematic funding for the
seven Strategic Plan Outcome Areas
was $186 million, and thematic
humanitarian was $204 million. No
thematic funding was received for
the Gender pool. This represents
an increase in thematic funding of
14.5% versus 2014. Thematic funding
accounted for 10% of total earmarked

CASES FOR SUPPORT - PARTNERING TO DELIVER
RESULTS FOR CHILDREN
UNICEF’s Cases for Support make
the case for investing in children,
while also spotlighting how UNICEF
is able to deliver robust returns on
such investments – for children and
for society at large.
There is an urgent need to invest in
children. Millions of children around
the world still do not get the vital
health care, nutrition, education and
protection they need to realize their
rights to survive and develop to
their full potential. Deprivation and
missed opportunities throughout
childhood accumulate over a
child’s life span – undermining the
individual child’s prospects for the
future, starting the next generation
off at a disadvantage, and creating
conditions for long-term inequality.
Investments in the most vulnerable
children not only improve their lives
and fulfil the obligation to realize
their rights, they also yield benefits
for everyone. Improving children’s
well-being – from providing essential
health care and adequate nutrition
and securing access to quality
education, to protecting children
from violence and exploitation –
help to break intergenerational
cycles of deprivation that hamper
economic development and erode
social cohesion.
Working towards
results for children
The Cases articulate UNICEF’s
priorities, as outlined in the Strategic
Plan for 2014–2017 and in support of
the Agenda 2030.
The overall case, Achieving Results
for Children, gives an overview of
UNICEF’s work, highlighting the
organization’s global reach and its
roles as an advocate and convener.
The case showcases UNICEF’s
unique partnership approaches and
the support to innovative, real-time
solutions that provide the world’s most
vulnerable children and families with
access to information, opportunity and
choice. The series also covers UNICEF’s
seven outcome areas: health; HIV and
AIDS; water, sanitation and hygiene;
nutrition; education; child protection
and social inclusion, as well as two
cross-cutting areas, gender equality
and the empowerment of women
and girls and humanitarian action.
For each area, the Cases describe
the key results that UNICEF works
to achieve and the theory of change
behind them. This starts with an
analysis of the situation of the world’s
children, focusing on the challenges
facing the most deprived, and an
overview of the evidence-based
solutions that UNICEF promotes.
The Cases also highlight lessons
learned from the organization’s
experience across the world, and
draw attention to current risks and
the measures needed to mitigate
them. Finally, they detail the resources
needed to achieve results, and
highlight current gaps in funding.

POOLED FUNDING DRIVES UN COLLABORATION
Over the last 10 years, contributions
to UNICEF via inter-agency pooled
funding have increased exponentially
from approximately $64 million in 2005
to $432 million in 2015. This occurred
at a time when non-core funding
increased 96 per cent, from $1.9 billion
in 2005 to $3.8 billion in 2015.
Inter-agency pooled financing to
UNICEF has grown substantially
over the past 10 years, from 3.2 per
cent of UNICEF’s non-core funds in
2005 to 11 per cent of UNICEF’s total
non-core income today. Moreover, in
2015 UNICEF was, overall, the largest
recipient across the UN system of joint
funding through pooled funds at the
global and country level.
Global Pooled Funds
include:
Central Emergency Response Fund
(CERF): Since its establishment
in 2006, UNICEF has received
approximately $1 billion in CERF
grants, supporting humanitarian
operations in 88 countries with millions
of children receiving critical lifesaving
assistance. In 2015, UNICEF received
approximately $115 million in CERF
grants, with 29 countries receiving
support through the rapid response
window, and another 19 countries
receiving support through the underfunded window.
Delivering as One Funds: UNICEF
has received approximately $183
million through One Funds between
2008 and 2015. Contributions were
1
received from the global Expanded
Delivering as One Funding Window
and the more recent Delivering
Results Together Fund (DRT-F). The
DRT-F was established to support
the second generation of Delivering
as One, to achieve transformative,
sustainable development results
through funding the UN’s integrated
policy interventions.
SDG Fund: The MDG Fund was
established in 2006 as a result of a
$720 million contribution from the
Spanish Government. Over the length
of that fund, which ended in 2013,
UNICEF was the second highest
recipient, receiving approximately
$95 million to support joint
programmes in 44 countries. In 2013
the MDG Fund was transformed into
the SDG Fund which focuses on three
areas - nutrition and food security,
WASH and inclusive economic growth.
Peacebuilding Fund: The Fund was
established to deliver fast, flexible
and relevant funding to projects that
support the peace process, build
or strengthen national capacities to
promote peaceful resolution to conflict,
stimulate economic revitalization to
peace dividends,
and re-establish essential services.
In 2015 UNICEF received $7.6 million
from the PBF.
Country-based Pooled
Funds include:
Common Humanitarian Funds
(CHFs): These funds became
prominent following the 2005
Humanitarian Reform agenda,
which focused on improving the
international community’s ability to
achieve more effective, timely and
coordinated humanitarian responses.
Their purpose is to improve the
functioning of the cluster system and
strengthen humanitarian accountability.
Since 2005, UNICEF has received
$491 million for critical programmes in
six CHFs – Afghanistan, Central African
Republic, Democratic Republic of
Congo, Somalia, Sudan and
South Sudan.
Joint Programmes: UNICEF engages
in joint programmes to drive collective
United Nations Development
Assistance Framework (UNDAF)
outcomes through UN Country Team
results groups. In 2015, UNICEF offices
participated in 762 Results Groups,
and led or co-led 33 per cent of these
groups, mostly in areas related to
social protection and inclusion. In
2015, UNICEF partnered with 26
agencies implement a total of 199
joint programmes in 79 countries.
In 2015, UNICEF administered
20 different “pass-through” Joint
Programmes, in partnership with
9 Resource Partners (Australia,
Canada, Denmark, Luxembourg,
Norway, Sweden, Switzerland,
United Kingdom and the UN Office
for Partnerships)1. The largest Joint
Programme in 2015 was the Joint
Health and Nutrition Programme in
Somalia, which included five Resource
Partners, and received deposits of over
$20 million.
The United States contributed to the Joint Programme in Somalia on Health and Nutrition through a bilateral agreement.

Expenses as a proxy for revenue received
At the midpoint of the current Strategic Plan, by the end of 2015, expenses reached approximately 50 per cent of the
revised planned amounts by Outcome Area. By using expenses as a proxy for revenue, the Strategic Plan remains
48 per cent underfunded.
The breakdown of programme expense by Outcome Area reflects the cost of services and consumable goods received
by UNICEF as well as programme supplies delivered to programme partners during 2014 and 2015.

was already 34 per cent above this
target with a total of savings of
$1.067 billion.
Savings and cost avoidance at this
scale demonstrate that, with partners,
UNICEF has integrated value for
money in its strategic approach to
markets and procurement. Ultimately,
these savings mean more money is
available to buy more products for
children. Of the $422 million in savings
in 2015, $346 million went to national
governments and other procurement
services partners. The total savings
equal 9 per cent of UNICEF’s total
2012–2015 procurement of $12 billion.
In 2011, for the first time, UNICEF
revealed the prices it paid to its
vaccine suppliers. A UNICEF global
press release announcing vaccine
pricing data was issued at the same
time as the GAVI Pledging Conference,
and generated numerous media
queries, press articles and broadcasts.
UNICEF’s move was widely praised
by partners. Suppliers had been
consulted in advance of this process
and had agreed to the publishing. Any
residual unease was quickly dissipated
by a number of announcements from
major vaccine manufactures offering
significant price reductions for GAVIeligible countries.
After 2011, UNICEF expanded the pricing
transparency to cover a range of other
strategic essential supplies, including
long-lasting insecticidal bed nets,
ready-to-use therapeutic food and safe
injecting equipment. This information
is supplemented by regular market
updates that provide information on
supply and demand status of life-saving
products. The pooling of demand of
national governments and UNICEF
programmes contributes to the savings.

GLOSSARY
Central Emergency Response Fund (CERF)
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.
Delivering as One (DaO)
The UN launched the Delivering as One pilot initiative in
2007 to respond to the challenges of a changing world
and test how the UN family can provide development
assistance in a more coordinated way. This effort is
mostly led by the United Nations Development Group,
a group of 32 United Nations specialized agencies
working on international development issues.
Inter-organizational arrangements
These include, among others, contributions received
through FAO, GPE, ILO, IOM, UNAIDS, UNHCR, UNDP,
UN Women, UNMEER, UNOPS, UNOCHA, UNFPA,
UNTFHS, WFP, WHO and the World Bank.1 Funding
from these sources is mostly directed to humanitarian
responses and includes, among other sources, income
from various pooled funding mechanisms such as
grants from the UNOCHA managed CERF (see above)
and multi-partner trust fund contributions.
International Public Sector Accounting Standards (IPSAS)
UNICEF adopted IPSAS effective 1 January 2012. IPSAS
are credible, high-quality, independently produced
accounting standards, underpinned by a strong due
process and supported by governments, professional
accounting bodies and international organizations.
These standards are specifically tailored to the public
sector and integral to UN management reform.
Multi-Partner Trust Funds (MPTFs)
The MPTF is a funding mechanism which (a) receives
and pools contributions from more than one partner,
(b) holds the funds in trust, (c) allocates funds through
a designated governance structure, and (d) disburses
funds through an Administrative Agent/Fund Manager
to a number of recipients.
Other Resources (OR)
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 ORE or ORR,
see below).
Other Resources Emergency (ORE)
ORE are funds specifically provided by Resource
Partners for UNICEF’s humanitarian action and postcrisis recovery activities. In addition to Government
and UNICEF National Committee partners, important
sources of funding for ORE are the inter-organizational
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).
1
Other Resources Regular (ORR)
ORR are 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 effective use of increases in
ORR depends on commensurate increases in the
organization’s RR base. The ORR that UNICEF can use
most strategically are those that are flexible both in
their purpose and in their duration.
Private Sector Revenue
Revenue received from a grouping of Resource Partners
that includes UNICEF’s National Committees, UNICEF
Country Office private sector fundraising (PSFR), NGOs,
foundations, corporates and individuals.
Public Sector Revenue
Revenue received from a grouping of Resource Partners
and sources of funding that includes governments,
inter-governmental bodies, and inter-organizational
arrangements.
Regular Resources (RR)
Un-earmarked funds that are foundational to delivering
results across the Strategic Plan. They include, mainly,
revenue from voluntary annual contributions from
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 as well as through the restructured card
and gift operations.
Strategic Plan (SP)
The SP 2014-2017 outlines the organizational priorities,
key results areas and targets across the seven outcome
areas for programming and two cross-cutting areas,
Humanitarian Action and Gender. The seven outcome
areas are Health; HIV and AIDS; Water, Sanitation and
Hygiene; Nutrition; Education; Child Protection; and
Social Inclusion.
Thematic Funding
Thematic funds are contributions that partners earmark
geographically (global, regional or country) for one of
the Strategic Plan outcome areas or cross-cutting areas.
UNICEF National Committee (NC)
In 2015, there were 35 UNICEF NCs throughout the
industrialized world. They are registered non-profit
structures, mostly categorized as non-governmental
entities established according to national laws.
Committees play a key role in advocating for children’s
rights and are instrumental in mobilizing resources for
UNICEF’s work.
