Responsibilities

~4 min read

Equal partnership is one of the overall guiding principles of the IOM-SC-UNICEF Global Programme^[1]. Programme implementation is founded on the principle of equal collaboration between IOM, SC and UNICEF. Regardless of administrative, funding, or convening arrangements, all three organizations maintain equal voice, visibility, and decision-making authority throughout the implementation of the programme.

Joint operational planning and delivery - Implementation at country level is guided by a jointly agreed Country Workplan, endorsed by all three agencies. Each partner contributes to operational delivery in line with agreed roles, responsibilities and comparative advantages, while maintaining shared ownership of programme results and deliverables.

Country Team coordination - Programme implementation is coordinated through a joint Country Team. The designated Country Team Coordinator, appointed by the Coordinating Partner, serves in a facilitative and administrative capacity, supporting coordination, information-sharing and operational coherence. The Coordinator does not act as a gatekeeper, lead implementer, or sole representative of the partnership.

Joint decision-making and external communication - All substantive operational, programmatic and coordination decisions- including engagement and communication with government counterparts and other stakeholders related to this programme are jointly discussed and agreed within the Country Team. All partners are represented in meetings related to the programme unless agreed otherwise by the Country Team.

Exceptions, transparency and escalation - Where bilateral communication/engagement or deviations from jointly agreed implementation are required due to contextual or political considerations, these are discussed and agreed in advance within the Country Team, with full transparency. Where consensus cannot be reached at country level, issues are escalated to the global level focal points for guidance and resolution.
