Rolling HAC & 2013 mid-year review
29 May 2013
What is the HAC?
• HAC gives COs visibility and a common funding document to support resource mobilization
• UNICEF’s total emergency appeals (inter-agency + UNICEF)
• Sets ORE ceilings for each office
HAC as appeal & ceiling-setter
Two ways for offices to set ORE ceilings:1. inter-agency (CAPs, Flash, etc.)2. UNICEF appeal (the HAC)
These are the only ways to set/change ORE ceilings
One appeal– the ‘Rolling’ HAC
- ‘annual’ HAC at start of the year and when situation warrants
- Previously, Immediate Needs Documents and Humanitarian Action Updates
- Now 1 tool/format to appeal/establish ceiling The ‘Rolling’ HAC
What’s changed?
• Not a document a planning process & rolling appeal
• Print website, allows updates and reporting• More results-based– Report against targets & within clusters(26 of 30 CERs had results tables)– Convey targets to achieve in 2013
• More flexible (to updates & inter-agency)
2013 mid-year review (what)
• Mid-year review required, but adapted to context
• Sitreps for many – cleared at the CO;• HAC revision for those that need it, but
requires review at all 3 levels as it’s revising the ORE ceiling
2013 mid-year review (how)
• All HAC countries need to review at mid-year, and communicate:– Situation update– Plans/targets for remainder 2013– Results against targets (1 Jan-30 June)– Funding requirements & Income
2013 mid-year review (how), cont.
• CAP COs review through an inter-agency process and communicate above through a Sitrep
• Non-CAP COs review internally, and determine whether to adjust requirements:– If no, then produce Sitreps– If funding requirements change, revise HAC
chapter
Whether to update your HAC• Non-CAP countries determine:– Funding gap (ORE income vs. current requirements)– Absorption capacity for remaining requirements July-Dec.– Projected change (/ ) in targets– Access– Change in situation-humanitarian needs greater/same/lower?
• If CO review concludes it can meet targets & implement by Dec., then leave HAC as is;
• If above requires more/fewer funds to implement by Dec., then adjust /
• Ok, as long as rationale provided
Deliverables• Revised HAC chapters
Or • Sitreps
For each:• Reporting period 1 Jan -30 June• Results against HAC targets• Please use results tables & include
clusters/sectors where relevant
COs already producing monthly sitreps continue, with above
Only if revising H
ACTimelines
by 7 June Non-CAP countries notify RO & EMOPS whether need to change funding requirements, with rationale
1 July CO shares revised HAC chapters with RO & EMOPSRO reviews funding requirements
3 July RO & EMOPS provide comments, PARMO reviews income
8 July CO submits cleared version to EMOPS, cc RO
9 July EMOPS Director clears- shared publicly (website; PARMO/PFP; and at country level) after CAP MYR (week of 15 July)
End July COs not revising HACs issue Sitreps
Wrap-up
• Changes are in response to feedback for a simpler and more streamlined process
• This very much depends on quality of drafts received
• RO/EMOPS can support (on appeals, decision process, performance monitoring), ex. Reporting against targets in results tables
