PAÍSES PIONEROS

¿Qué es un país pionero?

Los países pioneros tienen un potencial considerable para aumentar las inversiones en los empleos y la protección social, y han expresado su compromiso para hacerlo. La estrategia de aplicación del Acelerador mundial se adaptará a las circunstancias y el contexto específicos de cada país, incluidos los que tienen entornos frágiles y posteriores a un conflicto, y a través de una estrecha coordinación a nivel nacional en todo el sistema.

¿Cuáles son las ventajas de convertirse en país pionero del Acelerador mundial?

Acceso previa solicitud a conocimientos especializados específicos: Los países pioneros que quieren beneficiarse de la asistencia del Servicio de apoyo técnico tendrán acceso a un centro mundial, regional y nacional específico de expertos, especializados en el ámbito de la protección social, la creación de empleos decentes, la financiación y las transiciones justas.

Acceso a nuevas oportunidades de financiación: El Acelerador mundial será respaldado por nuevas fuentes de financiación que proporcionarán apoyo a la cooperación para el desarrollo, a fin de poner en práctica las hojas de ruta nacionales y de desempeñar un papel catalizador en la eficacia de las estrategias nacionales de financiación pertinentes.

Orientación, herramientas y apoyo al desarrollo de la capacidad para las estrategias integradas: los efectos que se refuerzan mutuamente y el ciclo virtuoso de las estrategias integradas de creación de empleo y de protección social están en el centro del enfoque del Acelerador mundial.

Elaboración de estrategias de financiación integradas: El Acelerador mundial apoyará el desarrollo de fuentes coordinadas de financiación (asistencia oficial para el desarrollo; recursos públicos, préstamos de bancos multilaterales de desarrollo y de bancos públicos de desarrollo; inversiones del sector privado).

Participación en el diálogo mundial de alto nivel a nivel del Jefe de Estado: la Coalición Mundial de Alto Nivel, que forma parte de la estructura de gobernanza del Acelerador mundial, facilitará el examen de los progresos y la presentación de informes como parte de los mecanismos de las Naciones Unidas de alto nivel, garantizando el compromiso político requerido continuo y el liderazgo necesario para alcanzar las ambiciosas metas del Acelerador mundial.

El intercambio de conocimientos desempeñará un papel fundamental al mostrar diferentes experiencias y resultados de los países: tenemos mucho que aprender acerca de políticas que pueden integrar el empleo y la protección social, facilitar las transiciones justas y aumentar los recursos nacionales.

What is the process for becoming a Global Accelerator pathfinder?

Some key elements need to be put in place, in order for a country to become a pathfinder country. The process could be initiated by the Resident Coordinator, members of UNCTs, or directly by the government. In all cases, the process will be led by governments at the national level in close collaboration with the UN. A general Terms of Reference is currently under development to help facilitate consultations on becoming Global Accelerator Pathfinders, in summary:

Engagement with the TSF: In countries where there is interest in exploring becoming a Pathfinder, a discussion should first be initiated with representatives of the TSF at global and country level and the Resident Coordinator.

Pathfinder criteria: A general set of criteria for becoming a Pathfinder country has been agreed through an extensive inter-agency process overseen by the Executive Office of the UN Secretary General. These criteria, as outlined above, should be reviewed and discussed with the TSF.

Country review: an initial country review should be undertaken by the TSF to identify priorities through which a country may most effectively achieve results and serve as a reference point for further consultations.

Cross-ministerial and national consultations: A number of consultations will be organized, with support of the UN. The process will vary by context, but with an outcome of developing a national Roadmap for the implementation of the Global Accelerator.
