Τhe Operational Programme Agricultural Development Restructuring the countryside 2000 2006 is the programme of the National part of the 3rd Community Support Framework.

We note that the operational programme for fishery, due to nature of the sector, does not offer special motives to women but it does not exclude them either.

More active efforts need to be taken to ensure that programme design and implementation involves non host countries to ensure that they, too, benefit from the RCF RP.

Regional approach The programme envisages the creation of sub regional networks of national experts.

Subprogramme 5 Information and communication technology for regional integration

UNDP may wish to consider providing support to the League of Arab States in its new reform programme with a view to strengthening it as a partner institution for the RCF RP.

21.36 This subprogramme is under the responsibility of the Globalization and Regional Integration Division.

None of the flagship programmes, such as POGAR, ICTDAR, HARPAS, CAWTAR, have adhered to a fixed strategy.

The coherence between the objective of the GEF Operational Program on Sustainable Land Management and the objective of the UNCCD is recognized as a basis for mutually beneficial collaboration.

(e) Europe and the NIS In the developing transition countries of Central Asia and the Caucasus, the promotion of FDI into the manufacturing sector is important to raise employment.

Took note of the draft regional programme document for Europe and the Commonwealth of Independent States, 2006 2010

Draft regional programme document for the Arab States, 2006 2009 (DP RPD RAS 1)

The Regional Director thanked delegations for their positive comments on the innovation of the CCPD.

The Regional Programme for Arab States is dominated by the Arab Human Development Report.

UNDP may wish to consult it during the programming of the next RCF.

The West African Regional Transit Facilitation Programme was being implemented with the support of the World Bank.

In this regard, ICARDA established a Regional Facilitation Unit to facilitate implementation of the regional programme.

The operational program describes the POPs related activities the GEF would provide funding for, i.e., capacity building, on the ground interventions, and targeted research.

More could be done to utilize the results of the regional programme to effectively position UNDP at the country level. As discussed under the section on management, currently, the linkages between the regional and country programmes are largely non existent.

This should include a structured programme of consultation at the country level that will raise awareness of the RCF RP and further bolster its synergy with national programmes.

14.53 The Division of Regional Cooperation and Representation is responsible for the implementation of this subprogramme.

The Regional Director introduced the draft CPD for Guyana (E ICEF 2005 P L.34).

The Regional Bureau for Arab States and Arab Human Development Report Advisory Committee should be brought more systematically into the process of designing and programming the RCF RP in the future in order to ensure continuity and coherence.

This consultation should take a form that would enable the League of Arab States and its ministerial network to serve as a sounding board for ideas for inclusion in the RCF RP.

The regional programme is managed in RBAS in parallel with relatively few, or no inter linkage with the country programmes.
