High-level Meeting for Launching the 2011 RoundOf the ICP in Western Asia Region

Beirut, 20 July 2010

Fundraising: Open Issues

The budget that needs to be allocated for the proper functioning of the project during the Round has been discussed in a previous Session of the High-Level Meeting

Those figures are estimates of costs, DO NOT correspond to funds available anywhere (ESCWA, WB etc.)

The figures shown are probably an UNDER-ESTIMATION of total costs, see budget allocated for staffing at ESCWA and countries’ participation to the Round

Small budget ‘inherited’ from the previous Round now available at ESCWA for VERY short-term and contingency needs, i.e. organization of this three-day meeting

Fundraising: Open Issues

There is a need for concrete steps forward in fundraising …

… with a joint effort by the ‘established’ Regional Bodies, Member Countries, Stakeholders, Users, Regional and International Organizations, and potential donors in general

Activities (Meetings, Workshops, Training) might be in part co-shared with other volunteering Training Institutions in the ESCWA Region

However, that will not be sufficient to support the whole set of activities during the time-horizon of the Round
