MANAGEMENT Spotlight populations linked to results SDGs, prevention and ESCR In the 2018-2021 OMP, UN Human Rights emphasized the spotlight populations of youth, women and persons with disabilities. The 2019 end-of-year reports included the contribution of reporting entities towards results associated with the High Commissioner’s priorities, namely, SDGs, prevention and ESCR. The focus on spotlight populations in 2019 remained unchanged from 2018 with women remaining the most selected population (and the order of distribution among the three spotlights remained the same: women, youth and persons with disabilities). The results reflect the impact of the work undertaken by the Surge Team in 2019. Principal SDG engagement lies with SDGs 5, 10, 16 and 17. The number of results targeting youth more than doubled since 2018, reaching 26 per cent of all results associated with a spotlight population. Most of the outputs were under the Participation pillar. Organizational development ORGANIZATIONAL EFFECTIVENESS RESULTS UN Human Rights defined nine interrelated Organizational Effectiveness Action Plans under the OMP 20182021 (see Figure 3 opposite): Strategic Leadership and Direction; Innovation; D y n a m i c K n o w l e d g e; E x t e r n a l Communications; Resource Mobilization; Partnerships; Operations Management; Diversity and Gender; and Talent and Career Management. Organizational Effectiveness (OE) results are the changes that UN Human Rights commits to achieving to improve its organizational effectiveness. OE results are defined at the output level and were defined in the 2018-2019 Annual Workplan for a period of 18 months. Approximately 86 per cent of programming entities have reported on OE results, thus demonstrating a high level of office-wide engagement towards the OEs in all regions and by all headquarters programming entities. OHCHR IN THE UN DEVELOPMENT SYSTEM REFORM As Co-Chair (with WHO and UNESCO) of the UNSDG Task Team on “Leaving No One Behind, Human Rights and the Normative Agenda,” OHCHR actively engaged in the Secretary-General’s reform of the UN Development System through fostering policy coherence on normative issues across the UN system. The Task Team promoted increased engagement of development actors with the international human rights mechanisms, notably overseeing the revision of the UN Common Learning Package on a Human Rights-Based Approach to Programming and the finalization of the UNSDG Operational Guide for UNCTs on Leaving No One Behind, which was then piloted in Cameroon, Nepal and Tunisia. The Office also contributed to the re-design of the UN Development Assistance Framework into the UNSDCF with a strong normative and human rights foundation for collaborative Country Team initiatives. 70 UN HUMAN RIGHTS REPORT 2019
