<\/p>\nThe Minister of Foreign Affairs and Development Cooperation, His Excellency Ambassador Albert SHINGIRO, opened the ceremonies for the launch of the process of preparing the United Nations Cooperation Framework for Sustainable Development in Burundi, Bujumbura, on 11 april 2022.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
In his speech, the Minister of Foreign Affairs and Development Cooperation, Ambassador Albert SHINGIRO recalled a quote from His Holiness Pope Francis: “the challenge of safeguarding the common home includes the concern to unite the whole human family in the search of a sustainable and integral development” which has a title the importance of the sustainable development to safeguard this common home which is our planet. Burundi, like the other member countries of the United Nations adopted in 2015, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) whose expectation before the deadline in 2030 requires bold transformative changes at several levels. The United Nations system, to which all belong, has introduced the United Nations cooperation framework plans for sustainable development. Burundi will very soon acquire the breast which will cover the period 2023-2027 to replace the UNDAF program whose implementation period has been shortened by one year to end on december 31, 2022 for strategic reasons mutually agreed between the two parts.<\/p>\n
\n
The new United Nations cooperation framework for sustainable development in Burundi will be in perfect coherence and alignment with the National Development Plan of Burundi (PND2018-2027) and the National Program for the Capitalization of Peace, Social Stability and the Promotion of Economic Growth, (PNCP-SS-PCE). The new Framework Plan marks a new dynamic of commitment between the United Nations System and the Government of Burundi. It is a type of strategic partnership respecting the principle of national ownership at all levels at the national level which reflects the real nature of contemporary relations between Governments and the United Nations in order to achieve the SDGs in the deadlines for 2030.<\/p>\n
\n
Minister Albert SHINGIRO invited the development partners and the joint teams that will work on the design of the Framework Plan for Sustainable Development Cooperation in Burundi to make the three guiding principles of action: a tool at the service of economic transformation of Burundi, the spirit of collaboration and exclusivity and to concretize their common commitment to leave no one behind. He also stressed the importance of statistical data in the work that will be done because the strategic choices that will be made in the context of the Framework Plan must be made on the basis of evidence and rigorous statistical data that will highlight the investment data and the opportunities they represent for the development of Burundi. They will make it easier for everyone to carry out the work well and thus to objectively identify the expected results.<\/p>\n
In his speech, Mr. Mama Damien, Coordinator of the United Nations System in Burundi, stressed that the development of the framework plan takes place in a context marked by renewed cooperation between the Government of Burundi and its partners and the affirmation of a new vision for the country. As Burundi has adopted the National Program for the Capitalization of Peace, Social Stability and the Promotion of Economic Growth (PNCP), with the instrument for accelerating the implementation of the National Development Plan (PND), the two frameworks should be at the heart of the preparation of the Cooperation Framework Plan, as they express Burundi’s vision and priorities in terms of socio-economic development and the NDP. It reminds to work towards the structural transformation of the Burundian economy, for strong, sustainable, resilient, inclusive growth, creating decent jobs for all and inducing the improvement of social well-being.<\/p>\n

He also thanked the Government of Burundi for demonstrating the leadership it intends to play in the preparation and implementation of Burundi’s cooperation framework plan.<\/p>\n
