Study Does performance matter? A donors' perspective and the MOPAN Group

management and organizational impacts (Case study A GOP proposal for the
United Nations budget) 13. The evolution of budgetary, accounting and
financial reporting systems (Case study The transition to IPSAS by the UN
system organizations) 14. Human Resource Management Part 4: Building and

organization's profile (Case Study Developing partnerships with civil
society: the case of UNICEF) 16. Ethics in International Organizations -

Summary:
This work is divided into four main sections.
Section 1 defines the three main families of International Organizations:
1. International Institutions (IIs)
2. International NGOs (INGOs)
3. Transnational Hybrid Organizations (THOs).
The purpose of this section is to create a basic understanding and
knowledge of the institutional and operational characteristics of the group
of organizations under investigation (collectively called International
Organizations, IOs).
Section 2, describes the broader context in which IOs operate, we discuss
the complex architecture of the international development cooperation
sector, and the evolving dynamics among its main actors. The authors first
explore the notion of "development" and its evolution. They then delve into
the challenges related to program coordination in the international
development and humanitarian aid sectors. They also analyze the evolving
roles of IIs and INGOs in light of the emerging paradigms for program
implementation and describe the evolution of IIs' funding mechanisms.
Section 3 explores the current management reforms in IOs. The main
objective of this section is to elaborate how managerial frameworks can be
successfully applied to IOs and to showcase management tools and systems
through actual practices and case studies. In this Section, the authors
respond to questions such as:
* What is strategic management and how it can help IOs organizations
achieve their missions?
* What is Result-Based Management (RBM) and how it can help leaders to
better orient resources and organizations toward their objectives?
* How do you gear the Human Resources Management (HRM) function and
tools to motivate staff, nourish talent, and develop the
organization?
* How do you utilize accrual accounting to increase transparency,
provide information on the financial sustainability of the
organizations and ultimately improve financial management?
* What are the intricacies of the governance of IOs and how can
managers navigate them?
Finally, Section 4 of this work explores how IIs and INGOs can build and
manage their institutional profile. The authors first tackle the
interrelated subjects of communications, external relations, and resources
mobilization. They then approach the concept of "ethics" for organizations
that, for their very nature, should promote sustainability and ethical
values, but are often accused of a lack of transparency and accountability.
