  • The IPU Resolution on Women's and Children's Health
    The IPU Resolution on Women’s and Children’s Health: An Initial Framework for Accountability Reporting INTER-PARLIAMENTARY UNION Executive summary This report highlights the results from the first review of parliamentary efforts in implementing the IPU resolution of April 2012: ‘Access to health as a basic right: The role of parliaments in addressing key challenges to securing the health of women and children.’ It is based on the evidence shared by a small group of randomly selected parliaments and organizations to provide an overview of the type of actions being taken by parliaments, and to establish a process for future reporting on the implementation of the IPU resolution. Although the survey sample is small, it is representative of a significant group of parliaments and provides an indication of opinions and general trends. Participating parliaments were mostly drawn from Africa where maternal and child death rates are highest, but also from other regions, including those from two developed countries. They were Bangladesh, Canada, Ghana, Kenya, Namibia, Rwanda, South Africa, Sweden, Uganda, Zimbabwe, the East African Legislative Assembly and the Pan-African Parliament. The survey asked 40 questions about parliamentary activity on Maternal, Newborn & Child Health (MNCH) in key areas such as Political will, Awareness, Representation/Advocacy, Oversight, Legislation and Budget. The questions drilled down into topics such as determinants of health, gender equality, and accessibility and quality of health services. The efforts of participating parliaments were considered in relation to Photo: © UNICEF/RWAA2011-00386/Shehzad Noorani the commitments detailed in the IPU resolution.

  • World Food Programme – an Overview
    World Food Programme – An Overview Researched and Compiled by Elga Zalite, Stanford University Library The World Food Programme (WFP) is the food assistance branch of the United Nations and it is the world's largest humanitarian organization addressing hunger, with over 14 500 staff, 90 per cent of whom work in developing countries. WFP provides food, on average, to 90 million people per year, 58 million of whom are children. From its headquarters in Rome and more than 80 country offices around the world, WFP works to help people who are unable to produce or obtain enough food for themselves and their families. It is a member of the United Nations Development Group.i History The WFP was first established in 1961 after the 1960 Food and Agricultural Organization (FAO) Conference. WFP formally started its work in 1963 with a mandate from the FAO and the United Nations General Assembly on a three-year experimental basis. In 1965, the programme was extended to a continuing basis. The programme started its life by voluntary pledges from participating countries in the form of commodities, cash or services such as shipping.ii Now WFP operations are funded by voluntary donations from world governments, corporations and private donors. The organization's administrative costs are only seven percent—one of the lowest and best among aid agencies. Goals and strategies WFP strives to eradicate hunger and malnutrition. with the ultimate goal in mind of eliminating the need for food aid itself. The core strategies behind WFP activities, according to its mission statement, are to provide food aid to: 1.

  • WFP's ROLE in PEACEBUILDING in TRANSITION SETTINGS Informal
    WFP’S ROLE IN PEACEBUILDING IN TRANSITION SETTINGS Informal Consultation 20 September 2013 World Food Programme Rome, Italy EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Conflict is a leading cause of hunger. People in conflict-affected states are approximately three times more likely to be undernourished than those living in countries at peace.1 To a lesser extent, hunger can contribute to violence by exacerbating tensions and grievances. WFP therefore has a strong interest and a potentially important role in supporting transitions towards peace. In recent years, the United Nations’ method for supporting countries emerging from conflict has shifted to a “whole-of-government” approach with a focus on national peacebuilding strategies and the New Deal for Engagement in Fragile States. It has also attempted to provide system-wide coherence to its support through the Delivering as One and United Nations integration initiatives. WFP itself has undergone significant internal reflection to understand its potential role in these settings. This policy sets the parameters for WFP’s engagement in peacebuilding activities as part of larger United Nations efforts to transition towards peace in countries emerging from conflict. It proposes eight key principles to guide WFP’s work in these difficult settings: i) understand the context; ii) maintain a hunger focus; iii) support national priorities where possible, but follow humanitarian principles where conflict continues; iv) support United Nations coherence; v) at a minimum avoid doing harm; vi) be responsive to a dynamic environment; vii) ensure inclusivity and equity; and viii) be realistic. Based on these principles, WFP will follow three main policy directions. First, it will enhance its ability to conduct conflict and risk analysis in transition settings.
