Volunteering integrated into the narrative text of the UNSDCF

Paragraph 1, page 3

To respond, the CF is focused on reaching vulnerable groups to ensure they are not left behind. CF results will be achieved in broad partnership with civil society organizations (CSOs) and volunteer groups, non-governmental organizations (NGOs), the human rights institutions, academia, media, the private sector, and international partners. 

Paragraph 2, page 14

UN cooperation will support efforts to shift disaster preparedness from the realm of policy and plan to implementation, with multi-stakeholder engagement of communities, particularly women, young people, CSOs and volunteer groups and the private sector in the planning and implementation of disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies.

Paragraph 3, page 14

UN cooperation will support efforts to shift disaster preparedness from the realm of policy and plan to implementation, with multi-stakeholder engagement of communities, particularly women, young people, CSOs and volunteer groups and the private sector in the planning and implementation of disaster risk reduction (DRR) strategies. Integrated, costed and data-informed DRR plans will be supported in targeted regions and municipalities, including scenarios and planning to address largescale human displacement.

Paragraph 4, page 17

Civil society engagement: Under all outcomes, the UN system will partner more consistently and strategically with civil society. Civil society organizations (CSOs) including academia and volunteer groups perform a vital role to mobilize and strengthen public participation in policy making and the delivery of essential services.

Paragraph 5, page 18

The programme will be nationally executed under the overall co-ordination of the Ministry of Economic Development and Trade. Government coordinating authorities for specific UN system agency programmes are noted in Annex C. Government Ministries, NGOs, INGOs, volunteer groups and UN system agencies will implement programme activities. The CF will be made operational through the development of joint work plan(s) (JWP) and/or agency-specific work plans and project documents as necessary which describe the specific results to be achieved and will form an agreement between the UN system agencies and each implementing partner as necessary on the use of resources.
