THE CRISIS MANAGEMENT AND POST-CONFLICT RECONSTRUCTION AND DEVELOPMENT

DIVISION

The Crisis Management and Post-Conflict Reconstruction and Development (CMPCRD) is one of the Divisions in the Peace and Security Department that supports the efforts of the African Union Commission to prevent, manage and resolve conflicts as well as, support the reconstruction and development endeavours of countries emerging from conflicts and/or difficult transitions.

The CMPCRD comprises two Units, namely; Crisis Management and Post Conflict Reconstruction and Development (PCRD). Under the Crisis Management Unit, the Division manages conflicts through monitoring of political, security and humanitarian situations across the continent, and implements decisions adopted by the Peace and Security Council (PSC). The Division oversees all AU-led and/or supported mediation efforts including providing backstopping support to the High Level Representatives and Special Envoys of the Chairperson of the Commission. In order to enhance the effectiveness of African Peace and Security Architecture (APSA), CMPCRD is also in charge of the activities of the Mediation Support Unit (MSU).

The PCRD Unit, which is responsible for the implementation of the AU’s PCRD policy, develops frameworks for the implementation of the policy, leads Post-Conflict Needs Assessments and implements Quick Impact Projects (QIPs) and Peace Strengthening Projects (PSPs). Through the African Solidarity Initiative (ASI), the Division also supports efforts of the Commission to mobilize in-kind and financial contributions, in collaboration with concerned countries and other Member States, Regional Economic Communities, as well as the relevant African institutions, to support post-conflict reconstruction activities and efforts in the African countries concerned. CMPCRD liaises with the RECs/RMs, multilateral institutions including the United Nations system, the African Development Bank, bi-lateral development agencies and African and non-African Civil Society Organizations on the implementation of the AU’s mandate for crisis management and reconstruction efforts.

The Division also coordinates the activities of the AU Liaison Offices in Member States emerging from Conflict or those undergoing difficult transitions thereby contributing towards effective stabilization that lays the foundation for social justice and sustainable peace, in line with Africa’s vision of renewal and growth. Through the implementation of its mandate, the CMPCRD supports the overall vision of the Commission to Silence the Guns by 2020 and assist in the effective implementation of Agenda 2063.

FOREWORDThe Results-Based Framework (RBF) is a tool for the planning, design, implementation, monitoring and evaluation of Post-Conflict Reconstruction and Development (PCRD) activities of the African Union (AU).

Developed by the AU PCRD Inter-departmental Task Force in collaboration with the representatives of the Regional Economic Communities and Regional Mechanisms (RECs/RMs) to the AU Commission, the RBF is a Commission-wide effort that sets out the AU’s strategic objectives for PCRD, identifies

relevant interventions and links them to outcomes and results that support the realisation of the identified objectives. All the interventions outlined in the document have been developed against a backdrop of cause and effect interlinkages and, as such, provide for activities and programs at various levels, within the AUC as well as with the RECs/RMs, Member States, African Civil Society and Partners. The RBF is anchored on the African Peace and Security Architecture Roadmap 2016-2020 and other related policy instruments.

Indeed, Silencing the Guns in Africa by 2020 and Creating the Africa We Want requires a multiplicity of actors and interventions. Yet, attaining results does not lie merely in the number of activities conducted but rather, in the extent to which efforts are harmonised to attain our strategic objectives.

The collaborative and participatory approach utilised in development of the RBF has further enhanced cooperation between the various Divisions and Departments of the AUC, and has engendered consensus as well as ownership of this document. It is expected that this document will contribute to enhancing coordination and collaboration between the Divisions and Departments of the AU Commission and the RECs/RMs. It is my hope that the RBF will ultimately lead to better communication and also strengthen the principle of complementarity in practice and provide a clear road map for our Partners.

This document is now an additional tool for the monitoring and evaluation of our PCRD efforts, and its implementation will be assessed in relationship to the set outputs, outcomes and the overall impact.

I encourage all AUC Departments and RECs/RMs to use the RBF as a primary reference document as they plan and implement PCRD-related activities. Doing so would ensure that the Commission and RECs/RMs leverage their political capital, and more critically, optimise the use of their financial and human resources in order to support Member States and Communities emerging from conflict and/or difficult transitions.
