Coordination mechanisms/governance structure

The UNDP Institutional and Coordination Mechanisms guidance note aims to provide information on how countries have adapted their existing institutional and coordination frameworks or established new ones in order to implement the SDGs. It highlights efforts to mobilize institutions around the SDGs, improve their functioning and promote horizontal and vertical coherence. The guidance note includes information on how responsibility is allocated amongst various levels of government (national, subnational and local) for coherent implementation and review of the 2030 Agenda. It provides an overview of key factors a country should take into account when establishing a new institutional framework or adapting an existing one In the Philippines, for example, the Department of Interior and Local Government (DILG) developed the MDG Monitoring System that monitors the different development projects being implemented and progress on MDG localization. The system primarily tracks LGU responsiveness to the MDGs, including integration of MDG-responsiveness programmes and projects in the local plans and budget; issuance of local policies supportive of MDGs; institutionalization of the local MDG benchmarking and monitoring tool; and documentation and replication of good practices. In the Philippines, a CBMS has been implemented in 59 provinces, 51 cities, 679 municipalities and 17,521 barangays as of February 2010.43 It has enabled policymakers and implementers to track the impact of macroeconomic reforms and policy shocks. Since many of the CBMS indicators correspond to the MDG indicators, the CBMS is being used to monitor the MDGs at the local level. Camarines Norte, a province in the Philippines, has included community-specific indicators related to natural calamities in its indicator system. Barangay Lawin 11 monitors the impact of sustainable development goals implemented in the barangay through the barangay captain , barangay planning officer with the leadership of the project manager.
