About United Nations Children's Fund

UNICEF WASH 2018-2021. A global thematic non-earmarked support for UNICEF work on water, sanitation and hygiene (WASH) in line with their strategic plan 2018-2021. The programme has a strong focus on gender equality. The intervention is a thematic support; a financing modality promoted by the Swedish strategy "Strategi för multilateral utvecklingspolitik" that gives larger room for efficiency and flexibility for the recipient organisation through internal budget allocations, and thereby providing improved conditions for risk management and results based management during implementation. The modality requires Sida to base the assessment mainly on the organisation's internal systems instead of predetermined details on execution.
