2. UNIDO’s Support to Iraqi Entrepreneurs2. UNIDO’s Support to Iraqi Entrepreneurs

With support from the United Nations Industrial De-

velopment Organization (UNIDO), in cooperation with

the Italian Trade Commission, 13 Iraqi entrepreneurs

attended the EDIL LEVANTE Construction Fair in Bari,

Italy, from 22 – 25 April 2010. The aim of the study

tour was to support the entrepreneurs in upgrading

their small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs)

through international partnership, technology transfer

and equipment purchases. “This presents a great op-

portunity to be exposed to up-to-date technologies,

know-how transfer and to help in reconstructing

Iraq.” said the Director-General of Industrial Develop-

ment and Regulatory Directorate of Iraq‟s Federal

Ministry of Industry, Mr. Sinan Kadim Jasim Al-Saidi.

The Iraqi entrepreneurs visited over 140 exhibits and

conducted 64 bilateral meetings with Italian entrepre-

neurs. They stressed that the fair was a unique op-

portunity to introduce the Iraqi construction sector to

firms abroad and learn about new machinery and

technologies. “We are very glad to cooperate with

foreign companies in re-building Iraq, and hope to

provide new technology, good quality and modern

style productions to the Iraqi community through

partnerships built at this fair,” said Mr. Sami Jaleel

Mousawi, President of Al-Ansab Business Group.

Prior to the mission the selected entrepreneurs re-

ceived technical assistance funded through the UNDG

ITF, with contributions from the Italian Cooperation

for Development, project C10-07, approved for $3.0

million, “Enterprise Development and Investment Pro-

motion for the SME sector in Iraq.”

The project‟s objective is to contribute to the develop-

ment of SMEs in Iraq and the creation of employment

opportunities. Enterprise Development and Invest-

ment Promotion (EDIP) set up three Enterprise Devel-

opment Units (EDUs) in the governorates of Baghdad,

Erbil and Thiqar, to provide enterprise development

services to local entrepreneurs. The EDUs are com-

posed of local institutional counterpart officials

trained by UNIDO, who have to date provided train-

ings to 341 potential entrepreneurs and are currently

supporting 235 small and medium businesses through

counseling services. The counselors supported the

preparation of 98 business plans and upgrading plans

which were reviewed by international consultants and

ready to be

p re s en t ed

to suitable

f i n a n c i a l

institutions.

The project

to date has

suppo r t ed

training of

95 Iraqi of-

ficials in

ente rpr i se

c r e a t i o n

and up-

g r a d i n g

that has resulted in the establishment and expansion

of 37 enterprises. The provision of an SME credit fa-

cility of $1 million was also included within the project

to ensure that beneficiaries would have access to an

appropriate financing scheme.

In order to further reinforce and complement the

UNIDO assistance to SMEs, the Italian Cooperation

for Development has granted bi-lateral funds to

UNIDO to support “Investment Promotion for Iraq”

and the through the UNDG ITF a total of $2.9 million

was approved for C10-12 "Enterprise Development

through Information and Communication Technology"

that focuses on increasing the competitiveness of ex-

isting SMEs, and support the creation of new ones

through on-line training and tutoring.

2. UN2. UN--HABITAT Strengthens Skills of Urban Planning Officers in MMPW and MoPHABITAT Strengthens Skills of Urban Planning Officers in MMPW and MoP

Urban Planning (UP) and Local Economic Development (LED) training Courses in Baghdad and KRG

Issue

In towns and cities, the growing confidence in the future of Iraq translates into demand for land and sites for

housing, schools, commercial and business uses. Managing this demand and creating an appropriate land use

plan and infrastructure investment framework to support it, is the role of town and city planners. However, the

profession is weak; municipal staff performing these roles usually come from the engineering profession and

there are limitations in the skills and numbers of qualified planners performing these roles. The UN-HABITAT

project, “Local Government Association and Urban Development Capacity Building” was funded by the UNDG

ITF for $1.9 millionfocuses on building skills to address these challenges with planning officials in Iraq from the

Ministry of Municipalities and Public Works (MMPW) and the Ministry of Planning (MoP).

Action

In liaison with MMPW, MoP and Ministry of Municipalities in KRG, UN-HABITAT selected professionals and aca-

demics from the private sector and academic institutions (e.g. High Institute of Urban and Regional Planning in

Baghdad University and University of Erbil) as „Trainers of Trainers (ToT)‟. These ToTs, working with the Gov-

ernment Organization of Physical Planning (GOPP) in Egypt, designed a ten day training programme which in-

troduced the latest and best practices in urban planning and economic development. Topics covered included;

strategic planning, design and planning standards, development control, how to address informal settlements,

land rights and management issues. A specialist team focused on local economic development examining the

linkages between land use planning and economic objectives and how to prepare a local economic development

plan. In April and after professional selection of training materials, ten days training courses on UP and LED

were conducted in Baghdad and Erbil by the professional academic trainers in close liaison with Government of

Iraq (GoI) officials. Fifty-two staff from MMPW, MoP and Ministry of Municipalities in KRG participated in this

training which successfully ended with the participants awarded certificates by the GoI officials and UN-

HABITAT.

Impact

How far the new approaches and ideas shared can be applied in practice immediately is difficult to gauge. Cer-

tainly, at a ministerial level within the target Ministries there is a growing understanding of „participatory‟ and

„strategic‟ planning approaches, and interest and willingness to apply them. Similarly the need to link economic

development planning with land use planning objectives is better understood. Key staff are keen to apply les-

sons more holistically and consideration is currently being given to a programme that will upgrade the training

for planners within the tertiary education sector. At the same time a more proactive professional institute for

planners in Iraq providing short courses, networking and learning exchange as well as formal courses of study is

under consideration.


2. 2. UNOPS Supports the Development of Regulations for the New NGO Law


Representatives of

the Iraqi Council of

Ministers Secretariat

(CoMSec) including

the NGOs Director-

ate, several Iraqi

Government Minis-

tries, outgoing Chair

of Iraqi Council of

Representat ives ‟

Civil Society Com-

mittee, and Iraqi and International NGOs, on 4th April agreed

on recommendations to guide the implementing regulations

for the new Iraqi Law on Non-Governmental Organizations

(NGOs) (Law No. 12 of 2010), which entered into force in

April 2010.

“The passing of the NGO law in early 2010 was the successful

result of years of consultations and negotiations, but without

clear policy and guidelines for how to put its provisions into

practice, neither Iraqi authorities nor NGOs will fully benefit

from the law”, said UNOPS Portfolio Manager for Civil Society

Mr. Adam Styp-Rekowski.

Over the course of the past months, CoMSec worked on

drafting guidelines, but during a three-day roundtable organ-

ized by the United Nations Office for Project Services

(UNOPS) and the International Center for Not-for-Profit Law

(ICNL), the stakeholders, supported by international experts,

had an additional opportunity to draft implementing regula-

tions that would reflect Iraqi needs and be in line with inter-

national best practices.

“This has been very productive” said the outgoing Chair of

the Iraqi Council of Representatives Civil Society Committee,

Ms. Alaa Talabani. “Procedures drafted by the Government

should make it easier, not harder, to implement the law and

this is what we have achieved.”

Jamal Al-Jawahiri, Public Relations and Finance Secretary of

the NGO Iraqi Al-Amal Association, concurred, adding that

“for me as a member of civil society to sit with representa-

tives of the Government and Parliament, and to be accepted

as an equal in these discussions is a great achievement. The

roundtable has brought us closer and listening to each other

as well as to international, regional and KRG experts has en-

abled us to meet half way and agree on a number of impor-

tant issues.”

The recommendations agreed on by the participants will be

used by CoMSec to finalise the draft regulations.

“With consensus on the practical issues, we will soon be able

to look beyond the law and see how we can support civil soci-

ety further”, concluded Ms. Alaa Talabani.

„

Workshop Conclusions

Twenty-six government officials and civil soci-

ety leaders met in Erbil, Iraq from 2 – 4 July

2010 to discuss the proposed Implementing

Regulation to the Law on Non-Governmental

Organizations (Law 12 of 2010). Workshop

participants agreed to issue the recommenda-

tions, regarding (summary):

Registration of new NGOs and re-registration

of existing NGOs where among others it was

recommended to simplify and organize the reg-

istration procedures ensuring that provisions of

Law no. 12 can be fully implemented. On NGO

reporting requirements, participants recom-

mended reporting deadlines, creation of model

reports and setting up rules on enforcement of

submission of reports. Participants agreed that

merger applications should be subject to the

same process as that for registering a new

NGO. Clear and fair guidelines, procedures

and criteria for awarding public benefit status

should be established.

It was also agreed that NGOs implementing

small-fund projects should be treated with the

same mechanisms and procedures that are

used with other organizations. Participants de-

veloped practical recommendation on the way

the NGOs Directorate should communicate with

NGOs and recommended that branches are

open in all Iraqi governorates. It was also rec-

ommended that structural and staff develop-

ment of the NGOs Directorate is supported.

Lastly, it was agreed that when an NGO is reg-

istered with the NGOs Directorate, the NGOs

registration office in the region (ex. Kurdistan

Region) shall be notified of this registration and

vice versa.

2. UNICEF & WHO Support First National Vaccination Week2. UNICEF & WHO Support First National Vaccination Week


Iraq Celebrates First National Vaccination

Week: Call for New Vaccines

From 24 - 30 April, Iraq launched its first National

Vaccination Week (NVW) focusing on vaccination as a

key investment for a better life and the crucial re-

sponsibility the family and community have in provid-

ing protection against diseases.

Since 2004, the UNDG ITF has provided finances for a

number joint programs with UNICEF and WHO in sup-

port of vaccination activities. For example in 2006, a

$2.6 million program was approved to Strengthen

Immunization Services in Iraq. In 2007 another $6.2

million was allocated to Disease Eradication and

Elimination and Introducing New Vaccines. In the

same month $1.4 million was approved to Support to

the Government of Iraq‟s Nation Measles and Polio

Campaign.

The objective of the NVW was to improve communi-

cation and dissemination of knowledge on the value

of immunization, increase community demand for im-

munization and use a combination of innovative ap-

proaches and solutions to improve access to immuni-

zation in Iraq.

“Vaccines have the power not only to save, but also

to transform lives, giving children a chance to grow

up healthy, go to school, and improve their life pros-

pects", said Dr. Saleh Al Hasnawi, Iraq‟s Health Minis-

ter. “Building public understanding of the benefits of

immunization and appreciation of its value is our

main objective”, he added.

‘ During the NVW, Departments of Health in all 18

Iraqi governorates were joined by hundreds of

communities to carry out a variety of awareness

and health education activities, especially in low

immunization coverage areas. Activities were de-

signed to inform parents, caregivers and health

care providers of the benefits and importance of

routine childhood vaccinations. They included me-

dia events, work-shops, training sessions, commu-

nity mobilization initiatives, round table discus-

sions and exhibitions addressing a wide range of

vaccine-related issues.

“Child survival lies at the heart of everything we

do. Every effort should be made now to administer

new vaccines to all children across Iraq, especially

those living in low coverage areas” said Sikander

Khan, UNICEF Representative in Iraq. “This will

contribute to achieving universal 100%vaccination

coverage which is critical to realizing the millen-

nium development goal of halving child mortality

from 41 child deaths out of 1,000 live births before

the age of five to 21 by 2015, saving about

100,000 Iraqi children‟s lives in the process.”

WHO and UNICEF took the opportunity of the NVW

to commend the courage and unflagging determi-

nation of Iraq‟s health authorities and staff, par-

ents and communities to make immunization in

the country a successful undertaking despite the

immense challenges Iraq has faced due to extreme

violence, sanctions, and war during the past three

decades.

Keeping Iraq free of vaccine-preventable diseases

is testament to Iraq‟s commitment to ensure every

child and mother‟s right to health.

Maintaining a polio-free status since 2000, the im-

provement of immunization rates with four in five

children receiving all recommended vaccinations

by the age of 12 months, the increasing coverage

of infant measles vaccinations which jumped from

70% in 2007 to 88% in 2008 and to above 90% in

2009, the eradication of smallpox in 1978, and

utilizing the national immunization programme as

a platform to provide other life-saving health inter-

ventions such as vitamin A supplements, are mile-

stones in Iraq‟s national immunization efforts.
