Overview

In the decade since the Arab Uprisings, CPPF has expanded its MENA programming, including convening an annual forum of UN Resident Coordinators (RCs) that brings together over 15 heads of UN field presences across the region to exchange with experts on and from the region. The MENA RC Forum, now in its 7th year, increases system-wide coherence and collaboration, and strengthens the coordination role of the RCs. In addition to the annual forum, CPPF works on a number of country-specific issues including Libya, Lebanon, and Palestine, as well as cross-cutting regional thematic issues such as women’s political participation, climate change and water resources, migrant labor and Covid-19, and forced displacement.
