Session objective
• To provide an understanding of the technical cooperation programme cycle and preparations for the next programming cycle 2014–2015
IAEA
Preparing the TC programme
• The TC programme is needs-based, and results-oriented and is developed through a consultative process
• Guidelines with milestones and deadlines are provided at the start of each planning cycle• provide systematic guidance for all stakeholders on the planning
and design process
• ensure consistently high quality in all TC programme and project documents
• Documents for TACC are issued five weeks in advance
• Support is provided to Member States (NLOs, counterparts, Permanent Missions) throughout the process

IAEA
Logical Framework Approach
• A widely adopted development planning methodology
• Used to improve the design, implementation and assessment of a policy, a programme or a project
• The matrix describes the logic, chain of results, indicators and assumptions

Review: Quality, technical, safety
• Review and feedback at two levels/phases: concept and design
• Quality review throughout the process
• Technical Officer participates in review process
• Project reviewed for compliance with the Statute, INFCIRC/267, and all relevant decisions of the Agency’s Policy-Making Organs and the Security Council
IAEA
Secretariat support for the planning and design process
• Guidelines and training for the Planning and Design of the TC programme – Logical Framework Approach applied, quality strengthened
• Pre-planning and pre-project missions to support preparation of programmes
• Identification of safety gaps and needs for additional safety support
• Information on thematic areas for cooperation
IAEA
IT tools for the planning and design process
• Programme Cycle Management Framework (PCMF) IT platform• Facilitates programme processes and stakeholders
interaction
• All templates available online
• Whole national programme visible at any time
• TC-PRIDE web site• Updated financial and other information on all
ongoing and completed TC projects
• Expected to be fully operational again 2Q 2012
IAEA
Support available on PCMF
• Templates (Project Document, Programme Notes)
• PCMF Reference Desk
• TC Programme Quality Criteria
• IAEA Fields of Activity used by TC Projects
• Policy for Interregional Projects
• Policy for Regional Projects
• TC Programme Planning and Design Glossary
• Note Verbale on the start of preparations for the technical cooperation programme, including the guidelines, criteria for appraisal and approval, and timeframe for the planning and design of the TC programme.

Project design requires teamwork!
• Secretariat Staff
• NLO
• Counterpart
• Appropriate thematic Institutions in Member States
• Other partners
IAEA
Fields of Activity (FoAs)
• Fields of Activity (FoAs): a classification of the TC programme and projects by thematic area
• There are 30 Fields of Activity (cancer, water, nuclear power, safety etc.)
IAEA
Safety and security•Legal, governmental and emergency preparedness and response infrastructures•Safety of nuclear installations•Control of radiation sources•Radiation protection of workers and patients•Transport safety•Nuclear security•Radioactive waste management, decommissioning and environmental remediation
Streamlined Fields of Activity
Industrial applications / radiation technology•Reference products for science and trade•Research reactors•Cleaner and safer management of industrial processes
Sustainable energy•Energy planning•Introduction of nuclear power•Nuclear power reactors•Nuclear fuel cycle
Nuclear knowledge development and management•Building nuclear science competencies•Nuclear knowledge and human resource management
• 30 streamlined Fields of Activity
• Reported under 7 groupings
Health and nutrition•Prevention and control of cancer•Radiation oncology in cancer management•Nuclear medicine and diagnostic imaging•Radioisotope production and radiation technology for health care•Quality assurance and metrology in radiation medicine•Nutrition and infections disease management
Water and the environment•Water resources management•Understanding climate change•Marine and coastal environments
Food and agriculture•Crop production•Agricultural water and soil management•Livestock production•Insect pest control•Food safety
IAEA
EXAMPLE: Increasing Agricultural Production in the Coastal Area through Improved Crop, Water and Soil Management
• Objectives:
• Identification and assessment of saline-tolerant crop varieties
• Evaluation of water use from ponds and natural depressions for drip irrigation
• Measurement of the soil content in order to ensure optimal irrigation scheduling
IAEA
Reviewing Concepts and Designs
• What issue is being addressed?
• Are the specific nuclear techniques identified appropriate for addressing the issue?
• Does it meet central criterion?
• Do the techniques have a comparative advantage?
• Meet safety requirements?
• Is there adequate physical infrastructure and human resources to support the project?
• Will external institutions and partners participate in the project?
• Is there a need to organize planning mission(s)?
IAEA
