Introduction and Background The purpose of this concept paper is to provide the donor community with a brief on the strategic direction that the UN Health for Iraq will pursue in 2006 and 2007, in order to effectively support the Iraqi Government, in particular the Ministry of Health and other key ministries, in addressing the priority health needs for Iraq. The UN Health consists of, UNICEF,, WFP, UNDP, UNIDO, UNEP, IOM, UNIFEM and. The UN Health Coordinator is and the Deputy Coordinator is UNICEF. The Iraqi Ministry of Health is the key partner of the, but the also has strong linkages with entities such as the Ministry of Environment, Ministry of Municipalities and Public Works, the Iraqi Health Sector Working Group 1 and others. B. Programmatic Thinking The programmatic and strategic support provided by the UN Agencies for health in Iraq is guided by the UN Health Results Matrix (kindly refer to Annex 1), which has six strategic outcomes, in support of the Iraqi health policies: 1. 50% reduction in Under-5 and Infant Mortality; 2. 15% reduction in Maternal Mortality; 3. Increase access to quality health care services especially for vulnerable groups and the un-reached; 4. Enhance Disease Prevention and Control including HIV/Aids; 5. Healthy living environment enhanced and healthy lifestyle promoted; 6. Emergency preparedness and response ensured. The six strategic outcomes represent the programmatic thinking and the collaborative and thematic approach the UN agencies have jointly taken for Iraq. The projects being implemented by UN Health Agencies fit into the Results Matrix, irrespective of funding source. Furthermore, these outcomes have specific outputs which look to support Iraq, in the priority health needs, including improving: the nutritional status of malnourished children U5, pregnant and lactating women, immunisation programmes, emergency obstetric care, primary health care, environmental health, communicable diseases to name just a few. The results matrix is consistent with the Iraqi Ministry of Health Vision, the National Development Strategy, and the UN Country Team Strategy. It was developed in consultation with the Ministry of Health and other key ministries, who have endorsed and support the matrix. C. Current UNDG ITF Implementation As part of the Results Matrix and under the UNDG ITF, the UN Health agencies are currently implementing 10 projects, which are show in Table 1 below. 1 Further information on the Iraq Health Sector Working Group (HSWG) and the linkages between the HSWG and the UN Health can be provided upon request UN Health and Nutrition for Iraq: Concept Paper on the Strategic Direction and Funding Needs 1

Priority activities will be implemented first and the remaining activities will be put on hold, until the remaining funds are secured. As well as the projects listed in Table 2, there are more needs and priorities in the health sector in the coming two years.

E. Conclusion The Iraqi Ministry of Health, other relevant ministries and the UN Health appreciate the strategic, consistent and concerted support that the EC has provided for the health sector in Iraq. In 2006 and into 2007, as the political environment of Iraq settles and the new Minister of Health takes leadership of health in Iraq, the UN Health will continue to provide the needed support to the Iraqi Government.

The current Task Manager is Dr. Naeema Al Gasseer / WR, with the deputy being Dr. Alexander Malyavin of UNICEF. Active UN agencies in Health include, UNICEF,, WFP, UNDP, UNIDO, UNEP, IOM, UNIFEM and. The is a large number of UN national technical staff active in Health in Iraq, including personnel associated with disease surveillance activities (with additional support staff in terms of security guards and others). Regular contact is maintained between the UN agencies and with the World Bank, Ministries of Health, Environment, and Planning and with other health partners. The Health is working closely with the and has an active role in the on-going national health planning process. Donor coordination of the Health is an issue of importance of the and it is something the Health supports the to do. Opportunities for local-level contacts are severely constrained by current UN Phase IV restrictions on in-country movement by national staff. National and International NGOs (although with very limited expatriate presence in the country, due to security constraints) are currently engaged in activities in Iraq and through our biweekly coordination meetings health cluster members exchange information with these counterparts. Any re-entry by international staff is likely to be under the auspices of the Integrated Sectoral Approach which foresees a single point of entry into the UN system. The UN is actively engaged in the following coordination mechanisms: 1. Weekly UN Health and Nutrition meeting between the main partners of the ; 2. Bi-weekly UN Health and Nutrition with NGOs and all other partners meeting; 3. participate in aforementioned meetings and ad-hoc meetings through video-conferencing on a relatively regular basis; 4. Donor meetings 5. Regular virtual communication between members; 6. representatives travel to key sites in Iraq on a regular basis; 7. The Health Sector Working Group.
