The United Nations Environment Programme (UN Environment) is the leading global environmental authority that sets the world's environmental agenda, promotes the coherent implementation of the environmental dimension of sustainable development within the United Nations system and serves as an authoritative advocate for the environment.
The UNEP Policy and Programme Division (PPD) is responsible for the organization's strategy and the organization's performance planning, review and monitoring. This position is in the Programme Coherence and Assurance Unit (PCAU) of the PPD and reports to the Head of PCAU. PCAU and the Strategic Planning Unit (SPU) in PPD lead the redesign of the Programme and Project Management manual (PPMM), because of its oversight role over the project cycle in collaboration with staff from the units in charge of supporting and overseeing these processes, including from PPD and Corporate Services Division (CSD), as well as Evaluation and Governance Affairs Offices.
Purpose:
UNEP is in the process of finalizing its new Delivery Model as part of an internal process to prepare for implementation of the MTS 2022-2025. The updated Programme and Project Management Manual (PPMM) also plays a central role in the process and serves as a knowledge product and the main source of information on standard programming, delegation of authority, finance, budget, procurement, resource mobilization, risk management, human resources, legal and communication procedures and guidelines within UNEP. The primary target group is UNEP staff managing and working on projects, including programme officers, administrative officer and finance officers. The updated Delivery Model and the PPMM complement each other and provide guidance e.g. on how to design, manage, implement, and evaluate projects, an overview of the general operational context and UNEP’s mandate. Secondary target groups for PPMM are external stakeholders and parties (e.g. partners, auditors, donors). The PPMM combines narrative as well as visual means of conveying information, it also includes attachments and links to relevant UNEP policies, guidelines, templates, and other resources.
The update of the PPMM started in 2021. As of June 2022, 10 of the 11 chapters of the PPMM have been revised, reviewed internally, and finalized. The chapters have been revised incorporating recommendations from the UNEP Project Cycle Review process and the most up-to-date policies, guidelines, and information. The completion of the first chapter of the PPMM (Delivery Model and Programme Approach) has been put on hold, to allow the alignment with the new Delivery Model, which is yet to be finalized.
