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.

  • 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

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.
