📈It is estimated that over the next 30 years, 2.2 billion people will move to cities. At the same time, the world is off track to reach Sustainable Development Goal 11 on sustainable cities and communities by 2030.

Meeting this challenge will require major shifts in urban policy and investments that provide urban residents with safe and #affordablehousing, transport systems, green spaces, and clean air. 🏘️ 🚃 🌿

It's a challenge faced head on by @UNHABITAT (United Nations Human Settlements Programme).

UN-Habitat is serves as the focal point for #urbanisation and human settlement within the UN System.

Today, the programme stands as a defining moment with a new Executive Director and a forthcoming Strategic Plan facing evolving needs with urban residents who find themselves at the cross section of increased urban migration and #climatechange. 🌍

🔎A lot of attention has been focused on urban develop since the last MOPAN assessment in 2016. The MOPAN assessment team developed a timeline of key global activity and events that reflect the increasing focus on sustainable urban developments.

UN-Habitat has made significant progress since the last MOPAN assessment in 2016, but there remains room for growth in better demonstrating results and securing flexible and predictable funding.

💡Find out more about UN-Habitat and how it can improve going forward when the initial findings of the MOPAN report are released December 6.

🎉 Today, MOPAN had the pleasure of presenting the findings from its @UNHABITAT (United Nations Human Settlements Programme) assessment to the UN-Habitat Executive Board in Nairobi.

🌳🏢UN-Habitat is an organisation that supports urban residents who find themselves faced with growing urban migration compounded by the effects of climate change. UN-Habitat remains a key global, national, and local leader for sustainable urban development, but there remains room for the organisation to improve.

🏗️ UN-Habitat’s capacity to respond to increasing demands is hampered by lingering organisational challenges and low levels of funding. The organisation suffers from a mismatch between the approved organisational structure and available funding, which leads to staff shortages and limited resources for important functions that oversee, monitor and communicate UN-Habitat’s operations and results.

📝 Addressing these challenges will require UN-Habitat to engage Member States in a dialogue on how to strengthen internal oversight and build on organisational reforms. It will be crucial to mobilise flexible resources and deliver on a renewed commitment to organisational excellence and accountability.

👏 MOPAN is grateful to Daniel Jacobo Orea and Ruben Werchan from Spain and Germany, for championing this assessment of UN-Habitat on behalf of the MOPAN membership.

✔️ 📅 Mark your calendars for December 12, when we will launch our recent assessment of @Gavi, the Vaccine Alliance.

💉 Gavi’s work took on a new significance in recent years as the organisation had a central role in the global vaccination campaign against COVID-19. While this placed enormous stresses on Gavi, it still managed to make progress on its core mandate.

🤝 Gavi was created in 2000 as a public-private partnership with the goal of creating equitable and sustainable vaccine distribution. Their work focuses on funding the delivery of new vaccines through supporting long-term immunisation programmes at the country level and negotiating reduced prices by pooling demand across countries.

✅ Having well-demonstrated its value-for-money proposition, there remain areas for further progress, particularly around risk management, funding mechanisms, accountability and cross-cutting issues such as gender, climate, and environmental sustainability.

💡 Stay tuned for the launch to read the full assessment of Gavi.

#Paris2024 is here and I’m excited.

Of course, like every Olympic Games, it is where sport meets politics and human rights.

From banning hijabs to expelling homeless people - from Gaza to Ukraine - here are a few of the big issues that have been hanging over the games… 🧵

Today MOPAN’s @SuzSteensen updated the @OECD Development Assistance Committee on the achievements and activities of MOPAN, and how the Network continues to support multilateral effectiveness and reform.

States only begin to get seriously interested in displaced people once they cross an international border & threaten the interests of other states. Much less concern if they remain in their own country. The most neglected are not IDPs but those who are trapped & unable to move.

[Patrick Saez @PatrickSaez2]

Great to be back @FCDOGovUK this week to discuss common #multilateraleffectiveness priorities, particularly enhancing inclusivity and voice. UK is a leading member of @MOPANnetwork and institutional lead for our assessments of @Refugees @EBRD and @UNESCO.

Today, MOPAN’s @SuzSteensen, @PatrickSaez2 & Edward Hainsworth met with the @FCDOGovUK to discuss opportunities to reinvigorate the multilateral system, and make it more responsive, #inclusive and effective.

Our recent assessment of @Refugees, released last month shows that UNHCR’s performance in delivering #gender outcomes has improved significantly since the 2018 MOPAN assessment.

In the 2018 MOPAN assessment, the organisation’s performance on gender indicators was unsatisfactory across the board, and is now satisfactory.

We need to revisit internal incentives framework to reward cooperation and expand coverage of evaluation on climate results. @MOPANnetwork @SuzSteensen

[Patrick Saez @PatrickSaez2]

@MOPANnetwork assessments reveal there is no measurement of impact of MDBs on national climate policies. @SuzSteensen

[Patrick Saez @PatrickSaez2]

@EconMitch @CGDev @SuzSteensen @MOPANnetwork @EBRD @WorldBank @AfDB_Group @KarenRotM Collaboration really matters in country and that is where it is not working well. measure outcomes rather than outputs. Countries need to be empowered to ‘manage’ MDBs better. @EBRD @HarryBoydCarpe1

[Patrick Saez @PatrickSaez2]

Happening now. @EBRD event on enhancing MDB cooperation in climate action. @SuzSteensen @MOPANnetwork will present insights from our assessments on how MDBs should move from climate finance to climate results.

[Patrick Saez @PatrickSaez2]

@EconMitch @CGDev @SuzSteensen @MOPANnetwork @EBRD @WorldBank @AfDB_Group @KarenRotM Coordination not sufficiently hardwired in decision making and governance structures of MDBs. It is as hoc. Shareholders have a key role to play in promoting it. They also need to be more coherent amongst themselves. @SuzSteensen @MOPANnetwork
