The total budget for Outcome 4.2 amounted to $390,000, and expenditure $300,000, giving an execution rate of 77 percent (96 percent excluding 2020 data). Outcome 4.2 is the smallest in the current programme cycle, with only one project: the ‘Strengthening Governance in Cabo Verde’ project, conducted by UNDP, UNFPA and UNICEF.
The programme around governance, public policy, partnerships and justice is focused on: strengthening the capacity of civil society and public administrations to support the effective and efficient use of resources; creating spaces for citizens to participate more effectively in governance processes; combatting gender inequalities and GBV; and improving the response of the justice system to protect human rights. Outcome 4.1 has three related outputs: 1) to enhance the capacity of young people and women to engage in critical development issues and decision-making processes; 2) to implement innovative strategies, capacity and tools in public administration at central and local levels; and 3) to mobilize financial and technical resources and engage civil society and the private sector in implementation of the SDGs. Outcome 4.2 has two related outputs, promoting: 1) gender equality and combating GBV; and 2) human rights with a focus on women and children in contact with the law and greater efficiency in the judicial process. Over the period 2018-2022, Outcome 4.1 had a total budget of $7.19 million and expenditure of $5.48 million, giving an execution rate of 76 percent (80 percent excluding 2020 data).
