United Nations Ten Year Capacity Building Programme for the African Union - Second Triennial Review

The main objective of the second triennial review is to assess the extent to which the outcome and recommendations of the first triennial review have helped meet the objectives of enhancing and strengthening the capacity of the AU Commission, NPCA and RECs to act as effective UN partners in meeting the challenges of human security and development in Africa. To this end, the present review is, among other things, to ascertain the extent to which the activities of the UN have been aligned to meet the needs of the AUC and NPCA from the time the first triennial review was undertaken, and make recommendations on actions to be taken to significantly strengthen the management, coordination and monitoring of, as well as the dissemination of information on the implementation of the Programme. It is also to make recommendations on the way forward and propose action measures to be undertaken in preparation for post-2016 when the Programme comes to an end.
