UN Cooperation
Registry of UN Cooperation Frameworks
Purpose
To catalogue UN Sustainable Development Cooperation Frameworks (UNSDCFs) that guide the strategic engagement of the United Nations system with Member States in support of national development plans, Agenda 2063 and the Sustainable Development Goals.
These frameworks show how the UN system aligns its programmes with:
- National development priorities
- Agenda 2063
- the SDGs
This registry will allow you to observe how international cooperation aligns with national and continental priorities.
Workflow
Same simple workflow used across all registries.
| Status | Meaning |
|---|---|
| Submitted | Document submitted by volunteer |
| Reviewed | Metadata verified |
| Registered | Accepted into registry |
UNCFID Format
UNCF-CCC-YYYY
Where:
- CCC = ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code
- YYYY = year of adoption
Alignment Fields
In this registry you should include three alignment indicators.
A2063 - Agenda 2063 Alignment
| Score | Meaning |
|---|---|
| 0 | No mention |
| 1 | Mention |
| 2 | Detailed treatment |
| 3 | Specific commitments |
SDG Alignment
Same scale.
National Development Plan Alignment
Same scale.
This third indicator is useful because UNSDCFs are supposed to derive from national development plans.

Why this registry is valuable
It will allow you to answer questions such as:
- How strongly do UN programmes align with national plans?
- Do UN frameworks reference Agenda 2063?
- Are international development partners aligned with Africa’s priorities?
This is extremely relevant to your broader objective of strengthening coherence across development systems.
One Strategic Observation
Your system is now evolving into something much bigger than registries. It is becoming a Development Systems Observatory for Africa. That is actually a powerful positioning if you later want institutions like African Union, AfDB, UNDP, and UNECA to collaborate.
