0:0:0.0 --> 0:0:3.350
MBTRoom
Energized because it's almost spring. Ohh.

0:0:5.120 --> 0:0:6.170
MBTRoom
Feeling very spring like.

0:0:6.490 --> 0:0:10.280
MBTRoom
And it's pretty. So let's start.

0:0:12.600 --> 0:0:19.190
MBTRoom
We we've gone to the brief, the update on the situation Wednesday, every.

0:0:19.790 --> 0:0:33.580
MBTRoom
Uh, two weeks. But some you do you want to just explain how we're doing when it comes to the earthquake response? We also had some important news last week confirmed. So there was a bit of a change in.

0:0:34.950 --> 0:0:36.720
MBTRoom
Change in our situation.

0:0:39.0 --> 0:0:40.630
Kyaw Myo
Yeah, for the quick.

0:0:40.800 --> 0:0:41.60
Kyaw Myo
No.

0:0:41.270 --> 0:0:41.670
Kyaw Myo
Umm.

0:0:43.980 --> 0:0:45.830
Kyaw Myo
Over the weekend and this morning.

0:0:46.800 --> 0:0:49.420
Kyaw Myo
Uh, we update it for high commissioners.

0:0:50.330 --> 0:1:0.700
Kyaw Myo
Upon dominant request, out of somewhat ordinary way, in a sense that, because usually when we.

0:1:1.630 --> 0:1:9.300
Kyaw Myo
Communicate with the 18 audience. We were used. Only the recorded contributions. We were not include projections.

0:1:9.970 --> 0:1:18.200
Kyaw Myo
Uh, so if we include contributions only, it were the only 27 million, but with the.

0:1:18.950 --> 0:1:20.330
Kyaw Myo
With the.

0:1:21.140 --> 0:1:31.670
Kyaw Myo
Projections there. There are a big chunk of projections and a pipeline around 51 million. So altogether we have about we have over 88 million.

0:1:32.620 --> 0:1:39.920
Kyaw Myo
Uh contributions and projections. So which is 44% off the dude LB requirement of.

0:1:40.550 --> 0:1:41.900
Kyaw Myo
Doing around 1,000,000.

0:1:42.870 --> 0:1:46.620
Kyaw Myo
Uh, most of the EM markings continue to be.

0:1:46.700 --> 0:1:49.650
Kyaw Myo
Umm, in terms of percentage wipes?

0:1:49.850 --> 0:1:51.820
Kyaw Myo
Ohh no I for a few year.

0:1:53.120 --> 0:2:9.830
Kyaw Myo
Although in terms of absolute amount it is higher for Tarki. So if we are ready to to to to talk about funding against the needs by situation, the percentage will be higher for Syria than than Turkey.

0:2:10.650 --> 0:2:19.540
Kyaw Myo
Uh, I think that the messaging has no that the drug message that I'm saying is not written in a way portraiting that.

0:2:19.620 --> 0:2:39.410
Kyaw Myo
I probably intentionally, but it may also be a good to to in terms of EM marking, I think the the the current situation rarely requires more earmarking to Turkey than Syria unless contribution for the flexible level at the situation level.

0:2:40.860 --> 0:2:43.310
Kyaw Myo
Yeah, that's it for the quick.

0:2:49.50 --> 0:2:49.850
Kyaw Myo
From Kuwait.

0:2:44.830 --> 0:2:51.90
MBTRoom
OK. And then 88 million includes the 17 million from wait, yeah.

0:2:51.550 --> 0:2:52.80
Kyaw Myo
Correct.

0:2:51.970 --> 0:2:52.640
MBTRoom
Good. OK.

0:2:54.160 --> 0:3:6.930
MBTRoom
Alright, so that just on that I, Commissioner, will take the floor at the the earthquake pledging conference. He'll take the floor with other international organizations towards the.

0:3:9.370 --> 0:3:13.210
MBTRoom
Middle end of the afternoon, I think between 3:00 and 4:00 o'clock. And we're not mistaken.

0:3:14.30 --> 0:3:21.890
MBTRoom
And but really only for two minutes and so quite quite rushed. OK. Thank you, Jamal.

0:3:24.410 --> 0:3:34.340
MBTRoom
The Catherine, can we move to you? Anything on comms? One thing that I noticed was that there was an AP story on.

0:3:38.620 --> 0:3:45.490
MBTRoom
Units you are facilitate or having some role with other other UN agencies and facilitating.

0:3:46.610 --> 0:3:54.920
MBTRoom
Uh travel of Myanmar theories to the camps in Cox's Bazar. I'm not sure if there's anything.

0:3:56.720 --> 0:4:0.630
MBTRoom
Anything on that that's been discussed with GCS?

0:4:1.920 --> 0:4:2.360
Kathryn Porteous
Morning.

0:4:3.440 --> 0:4:7.240
Kathryn Porteous
I can share as that's a red flag that came up this morning.

0:4:8.400 --> 0:4:9.690
MBTRoom
We can't hear you, I hear you.

0:4:13.840 --> 0:4:38.330
Kathryn Porteous
Sorry, my microphone. Yeah, that was a red flag that came up on the weekend. So I can copy paste. And what was said about that? And it was mentioned at the editorial meeting this morning. I'll put that in our chat and a couple of other things that came up this morning because we had our DRRM π meeting was unfortunately cancelled biggest media coverage.

0:4:38.420 --> 0:5:7.440
Kathryn Porteous
Mentioning UNHCR over the weekend was inevitably going to be the Home Secretary visit to Rwanda and quite unfortunate. But UNHCR was mentioned throughout and there's been some protests in London about that. Ben and I have been in touch quickly this morning, so there's a joint UNHCR WFP press release today which is on the launch of the new appeal for 100, around 100,000 new arrivals from Somalia into Ethiopia.

0:5:9.620 --> 0:5:38.690
Kathryn Porteous
Couple of other things just to note of interest out on Friday, there's gonna be a pallet briefing and that's with the UNHCR GCC Rep Khalid Khalifa. That's on the Islamic philanthropy fund and also discussing Ramadan campaign. And we had some additional requests for visibility for the Q 817,000,000 contribution. So you will have seen in the chat already the High Commissioner tweeted about that.

0:5:38.890 --> 0:6:8.160
Kathryn Porteous
And just maybe to explain to colleagues why we would have the High Commissioner tweeting about 1 contribution and not the other like, yeah, the US who gave more and we try to make these requests based on a strategic need and this one was felt to be strategic because the donor was demanding it greatly. But also it's a it's a massive increase from their usual contributions. And so that's the logic behind that. And we'll also be doing for Q8 AM.

0:6:8.900 --> 0:6:41.370
Kathryn Porteous
Press release which will be placed on the UNHCR website but on the announcement section. This is a new thing that we're gonna be able to do. So instead of what we don't normally do, global press releases for contributions. But if the contribution is significant or has some kind of media angle, we can work with Matt Saltmarsh and Olga and the team to get something put on the announcements page. So the donors feel that they're getting a press release shared, but it's actually just being put on our on our website. So.

0:6:41.560 --> 0:7:13.110
Kathryn Porteous
It's something that we can consider and for for the next ones and just finally from my side, we've been doing some prep work for Dominique's upcoming mission to Columbia. So I'm working with Lisa and colleagues in the region on that to make the most of it with the Norwegian ambassador. And I've started to formally present the visibility plans to the bureaus and to operations within the bureaus. So I've done Europe Bureau and America's and some of the Africa ones are coming.

0:7:13.390 --> 0:7:27.140
Kathryn Porteous
Uh, so that was a really important element of it, especially the German plan, but also PRM to make sure that we have colleagues on side so that we can deliver on these new plans. That's it for me. Thank you.

0:7:28.770 --> 0:7:31.910
MBTRoom
Thank you, Catherine. And any questions or comments?

0:7:33.190 --> 0:7:34.70
Pia Carmela Paguio
Yes, please.

0:7:36.670 --> 0:7:37.530
MBTRoom
Go ahead. Yeah.

0:7:36.620 --> 0:7:50.140
Pia Carmela Paguio
So OK, three points per me, one on the visit of Myanmar officials, to Bangladesh, to the cats in Bangladesh. Indrika actually mentioned it in his briefing last week.

0:7:51.300 --> 0:7:56.330
Pia Carmela Paguio
That the Myanmar defacto authorities had.

0:7:56.440 --> 0:8:15.150
Pia Carmela Paguio
And informed Bangladesh that they would come to to speak with the refugees. So just to say that this at least it will not come as a surprise to to our donors who who were there at the debriefing and the message that indrika passed last week, was the message from UNHCR was that.

0:8:15.450 --> 0:8:28.460
Pia Carmela Paguio
And just to to yeah, to, to amplify refugees voices in all these exchanges and the voluntariness, etcetera, etcetera. So just comment on that on the.

0:8:29.960 --> 0:8:40.920
Pia Carmela Paguio
Ethiopia, maybe we hear hear from Ben on whether that's happening next week. This the launch of the appeal. So that's a question for you, Ben. And then a thing on Kuwait.

0:8:41.440 --> 0:8:44.390
Pia Carmela Paguio
I'm it's great they're back. They're back in.

0:8:50.450 --> 0:8:51.80
MBTRoom
Hello.

0:8:46.520 --> 0:8:58.650
Pia Carmela Paguio
What does that mean? Sev? Does that mean that for the next briefings we start, they start getting invited once everything is recorded, of course, because they will hit 20 million again for the first time and.

0:9:2.90 --> 0:9:5.680
MBTRoom
I guess so if if that's the new practice to include the.

0:9:6.400 --> 0:9:22.390
MBTRoom
Along the year and then yes, because we said yes to Saudi Arabia that whenever they reach the 20, the threshold, they would be back in. So I guess for any new ones we just add them back in and then in like the new.

0:9:23.630 --> 0:9:27.150
MBTRoom
New donors in the course of the year, OK.

0:9:27.800 --> 0:9:35.690
MBTRoom
OK. Well then yes, they will get invited to the next stop dollars Explorer 20 million group.

0:9:37.60 --> 0:9:45.70
MBTRoom
Yeah, unfortunately it's not going to be a really common occurrence because it's not. There aren't that many who aren't in, who will.

0:9:46.700 --> 0:9:47.370
MBTRoom
Graduate.

0:9:49.0 --> 0:9:49.700
MBTRoom
So.

0:10:5.510 --> 0:10:5.810
MBTRoom
No.

0:10:5.870 --> 0:10:10.830
Pia Carmela Paguio
They are also tracking and it was explained to them why that was the case so.

0:10:11.180 --> 0:10:25.990
MBTRoom
Yeah, yeah. Good. OK. And then just on on this visit, there's the issue relating to visited by the authority for me, Anwar, there was a, there's a bit of disinformation as well out there on on Twitter.

0:10:27.370 --> 0:10:30.380
MBTRoom
I think the issue there's a the the issue was really.

0:10:31.660 --> 0:10:45.770
MBTRoom
The provision of of boats for logistical support for the for the visit. So I'm not sure and it's all referring to unnamed officials confirming that there was something. So we just need to maybe know a little bit more about that.

0:10:47.250 --> 0:10:48.580
MBTRoom
You don't know if you wanna check.

0:10:49.990 --> 0:10:58.100
MBTRoom
Just in case we do get queries about that, it would be good to know and the AP story is is all a little bit kind of cloak and dagger.

0:11:0.610 --> 0:11:2.640
MBTRoom
But it's good that already in three dimension.

0:11:4.620 --> 0:11:6.90
MBTRoom
The visit per se.

0:11:8.530 --> 0:11:13.50
MBTRoom
Uh, that's helpful. And then I guess, yeah, the other big, the big, the big.

0:11:14.460 --> 0:11:18.470
MBTRoom
Well, let's see what happened with the with the pledging and the earthquake conference today.

0:11:20.110 --> 0:11:20.740
MBTRoom
But.

0:11:22.0 --> 0:11:25.660
MBTRoom
The the other, I think big development.

0:11:27.120 --> 0:11:32.250
MBTRoom
In terms of in terms of donor relations is Ethiopia PO.

0:11:32.480 --> 0:11:42.50
MBTRoom
And Ben, do you want to give us an an outline of that? And then also when we we discussed this came up with the Resource board on Friday.

0:11:43.820 --> 0:11:44.720
MBTRoom
And.

0:11:46.330 --> 0:11:49.100
MBTRoom
It's the case where we have this overlay between.

0:11:50.990 --> 0:11:52.110
MBTRoom
Conflict.

0:11:53.200 --> 0:11:57.480
MBTRoom
Uh climate, because this is a severely drought affected area.

0:11:58.640 --> 0:12:4.370
MBTRoom
Both in terms of the parts of Somalia affected, it also where people are arriving in Ethiopia.

0:12:6.70 --> 0:12:10.370
MBTRoom
So we have conflict climate and then forced displacement.

0:12:11.610 --> 0:12:18.40
MBTRoom
And that coincides with, you know, in operation Ethiopia, which is, which is perennially underfunded.

0:12:19.140 --> 0:12:33.550
MBTRoom
So we we really have to make the point to donors that the numbers here are very large. It's not in the news. And this is really an example of of what we've been talking about, where things, if they're not in the news.

0:12:34.710 --> 0:12:36.630
MBTRoom
They're they're not really being funded.

0:12:38.130 --> 0:12:46.970
MBTRoom
So it's kind of a, it's kind of a test of this point that we've been making on, which is not very popular. I know among some of our friends on additionality.

0:12:49.250 --> 0:12:57.120
MBTRoom
But Ben, do you want to give us a an overview of where things stand with regard to the, the appeal and then the launch?

0:12:58.770 --> 0:13:1.70
Ben Farrell
Yeah, thanks for that. Hi, everyone. Good morning.

0:13:2.170 --> 0:13:17.690
Ben Farrell
So as Catherine said, there's a few. There's a few moving pieces. So Catherine mentioned the potential for what there will be a joint press release about the release of the Interagency appeal related to the influx.

0:13:19.70 --> 0:13:32.630
Ben Farrell
So that as Catherine mentioned, as soon as they finish the appeal, they wanna put that out. So release the appeal with the press release, it may be today, I feel it may be more likely tomorrow or Wednesday even.

0:13:33.930 --> 0:13:40.790
Ben Farrell
Once that is released then then an invitation will go out to a briefing.

0:13:42.240 --> 0:13:56.970
Ben Farrell
To donors, that briefing will be next Monday, the 27th at 10:00 o'clock our time 11:00, o'clock, Nairobi. And the it'll be hosted by Clementine. The intention is to invite donors at the regional.

0:13:57.990 --> 0:14:15.360
Ben Farrell
Level permit, mission level and capital level to try and sort of raise the spread of interest and the people who can who can hear it, that would that would involve again UNHCR, WFP, probably, UNICEF and and an NGO taking the floor for the.

0:14:15.750 --> 0:14:21.520
Ben Farrell
UM for the for the, for the briefing, and then.

0:14:23.940 --> 0:14:53.870
Ben Farrell
Concurrently to that with within that interagency appeal, UNHCR will also be releasing its own needs. So this is the famous special budget, the supplementary appeal, which was passed by the by the board on Friday last week. So that's about 41 million U.S. dollars worth of UNHCR S needs. So we will at the right now. Daria and Luke's team are working on that appeal document. So that's UNHCR component within the interagency appeal.

0:14:54.870 --> 0:15:2.660
Ben Farrell
And as soon as the interagency appeal is out, we can we can circulate UNHCR's own needs within that. So.

0:15:3.880 --> 0:15:18.540
Ben Farrell
I hope that makes some sense. It's a bit. There's a few processes going on, but all designed to sort of stir up the interest as, as Mark said, uses many leaders as we can to try and get additional interests and hopefully additional funding.

0:15:20.720 --> 0:15:21.640
Ben Farrell
Any questions on that?

0:15:25.110 --> 0:15:25.300
Ben Farrell
Yeah.

0:15:23.570 --> 0:15:26.290
MBTRoom
Just a couple of things, Ben. So one is.

0:15:27.810 --> 0:15:35.380
MBTRoom
The we would want to I discussed already with Celine and following up on the the.

0:15:36.970 --> 0:15:48.340
MBTRoom
Flee from uh from from another last week on on advanced notice to donors. If we can get that out kind of today.

0:15:49.510 --> 0:15:57.970
MBTRoom
And if we don't have the, so if we have the time nail down for next Monday, then let's just send out a save the date right away, even if we don't have all the details and who will be briefing.

0:15:59.730 --> 0:16:3.230
MBTRoom
An earlier in the day, better second.

0:16:4.570 --> 0:16:11.700
MBTRoom
I don't need also wanted to do a PSP briefing. We really wanna go all out for the reasons. You know that.

0:16:12.330 --> 0:16:23.640
MBTRoom
That I was outlining earlier, so that would be specifically on our SBS our needs. So that would be non interagency in format and terms of speakers etcetera.

0:16:24.840 --> 0:16:34.70
MBTRoom
So we need to look at that. I'm. I'm not sure if we would want to do that. Maybe on the on Friday or anyway that that's for the for them. I think she will send an e-mail and that then I'm not sure if you're lucky.

0:16:39.590 --> 0:16:39.940
Ben Farrell
Yep.

0:16:35.140 --> 0:16:40.160
MBTRoom
Um, no, OK, you you wanted to follow up with Pauline and ask what? Where that.

0:16:41.260 --> 0:16:41.450
Ben Farrell
Yep.

0:16:41.390 --> 0:16:42.580
MBTRoom
Yeah, where that stands.

0:16:46.330 --> 0:16:49.350
MBTRoom
And I think.

0:16:50.500 --> 0:17:0.180
MBTRoom
Oh, and then finally, Ben, if maybe maybe just so that everyone has a basic elements. If you can just write up some bullets that people can use for communicating, communicating with their donors.

0:17:1.580 --> 0:17:7.650
MBTRoom
So that we're ready as soon as it got the press release comes out and and and the interagency and the SP come out.

0:17:8.340 --> 0:17:9.670
MBTRoom
If we can.

0:17:11.90 --> 0:17:13.630
MBTRoom
If everyone has the point so they can be communicating.

0:17:16.960 --> 0:17:17.750
Ben Farrell
Yeah, go there.

0:17:18.650 --> 0:17:19.520
MBTRoom
Yeah.

0:17:19.670 --> 0:17:19.940
Ben Farrell
OK.

0:17:21.790 --> 0:17:23.960
MBTRoom
Any any questions for?

0:17:26.30 --> 0:17:27.480
MBTRoom
Or Ben, any comments?

0:17:30.140 --> 0:17:33.920
MBTRoom
Now could. Ohh and then also in parallel we were looking at.

0:17:36.100 --> 0:17:43.130
MBTRoom
Possible locations capitals to visit for Mamadu Gambale the the Rep in.

0:17:43.820 --> 0:17:45.810
MBTRoom
In in Ethiopia.

0:17:47.220 --> 0:17:50.960
MBTRoom
So let we'll try and nail that one down and then.

0:17:52.140 --> 0:17:59.290
MBTRoom
I think we'll have, we might do some, some for Afghanistan with Leonard Zulu. Also think.

0:17:59.470 --> 0:17:59.780
MBTRoom
That's.

0:18:0.110 --> 0:18:14.80
MBTRoom
Umm, there will be, there will be more as well. So if you I think that's an another kind of strategic discussion. We need to have what we we also need to be reaching out to reps who we think should be briefing and capital level.

0:18:15.840 --> 0:18:24.100
MBTRoom
So somebody already already doing that? But this like let us know if you think there are any real priorities on.

0:18:32.300 --> 0:18:32.650
MBTRoom
Good.

0:18:33.770 --> 0:18:38.820
MBTRoom
Do do any follow up from the Afghanistan briefing point? It's we'll we'll get there.

0:18:40.320 --> 0:18:50.100
MBTRoom
So. So in terms of now working looking, we'll get to a couple of other upcoming briefings after. But just in terms of things that happened last week.

0:18:52.290 --> 0:19:2.620
MBTRoom
So we have the Afghanistan briefing on Friday and PD1 outline a little bit for those who weren't there. How?

0:19:4.20 --> 0:19:7.460
MBTRoom
How that went and and then also the follow up that we have discussed.

0:19:9.340 --> 0:19:9.900
Pia Carmela Paguio
Sure.

0:19:11.730 --> 0:19:15.910
Pia Carmela Paguio
OK, I'm I'm just getting messages from the Bureau right now, actually.

0:19:17.170 --> 0:19:41.470
Pia Carmela Paguio
So the briefing was on Friday by Rahul I mentioned it also at the donor focal points meeting last week that you know there, there were quite a lot of questions. 3 rounds of 20, not 20 questions, 22 questions from from our donors or who came in person that those ones who were invited and so clearly a lot of interest.

0:19:43.160 --> 0:20:7.890
Pia Carmela Paguio
And there were a lot of follow up questions also like ohh I didn't quite understand. I didn't get it from the. So there is there was a real plea for transparency and granularity that came from some of the donors, particularly Germany and and very clearly said also that they will only fund programs where I'm.

0:20:8.720 --> 0:20:15.850
Pia Carmela Paguio
Where they are convinced that women are participating and are being being reached. So.

0:20:18.160 --> 0:20:43.650
Pia Carmela Paguio
As Sinead you were also there, but Hannah and I were were discussing also with Aurvasi from the Bureau that we we need to step up the information flow on this to the donors. The the operation is currently only 23% funded and and it's if we hold off on information that's not it's that's unlikely to to get better. So we have been putting together.

0:20:44.610 --> 0:20:55.480
Pia Carmela Paguio
Hannah the Bureau myself, have been putting together a a summary of some of the issues some of the responding to some of the questions that were asked.

0:20:56.80 --> 0:21:8.570
Pia Carmela Paguio
And we're working on that with the Bureau. The hope is the plan is to get it, get it out today so that we have something to hold off a bit to pacify the masses, if you will.

0:21:8.980 --> 0:21:16.130
Pia Carmela Paguio
And and then we will have to follow that up because there's some more complicated questions and.

0:21:16.290 --> 0:21:16.490
MBTRoom
No.

0:21:16.840 --> 0:21:36.190
Pia Carmela Paguio
We'll have to follow that up with something else later in the week and the this latter one is shown all this cluster of questions around with meaningful participation of women, but where we have already available information, and indeed they are in the FS lines. We said we should get that out so that people have something to to chew on.

0:21:37.920 --> 0:21:40.180
Pia Carmela Paguio
Yeah, I can see that.

0:21:41.950 --> 0:21:53.200
Pia Carmela Paguio
Ellen and Reuben, who's the policy officer for Afghanistan, are working on it right now. They're just waiting for feedback from from Leonard and the operation on the on two specific issues.

0:21:55.220 --> 0:21:55.590
Pia Carmela Paguio
But.

0:21:55.220 --> 0:21:56.40
MBTRoom
Excellent. Thanks.

0:21:57.780 --> 0:22:0.460
MBTRoom
Any any questions for Pierre or comments?

0:22:2.690 --> 0:22:3.370
MBTRoom
No. OK.

0:22:4.370 --> 0:22:5.240
MBTRoom
Um.

0:22:6.930 --> 0:22:8.940
MBTRoom
Yeah. Anyway, this is 1 where we.

0:22:9.960 --> 0:22:12.970
MBTRoom
It's not a went off. We have to think we'll have to continue to work on this.

0:22:13.570 --> 0:22:27.310
MBTRoom
UM, in the coming in the coming weeks, but I so I I my feeling is probably we need to have a follow up briefing actually more with PMA on that.

0:22:28.710 --> 0:22:29.640
MBTRoom
Or your second thing.

0:22:28.690 --> 0:22:56.590
Pia Carmela Paguio
That's sorry. No, no, no, no. There will be a follow up. OK. There will have to have several levels of briefings because there's things going on. There's, you know, the growth mentioned briefing in New York and being briefing in. But I think for for the crowd here, there needs to be a follow up and another thing that was mentioned by Raouf during the briefing and has mentioned in the chat is that Jillian is going to Afghanistan.

0:22:57.60 --> 0:22:58.680
Pia Carmela Paguio
And shortly.

0:22:59.380 --> 0:23:2.210
Pia Carmela Paguio
And she will debrief when she comes back.

0:23:4.190 --> 0:23:11.780
Pia Carmela Paguio
Tessa, Great minds think alike because I had reached out to to Cecile also on Friday. I saying that we should meet with her.

0:23:12.920 --> 0:23:22.510
Pia Carmela Paguio
And outline the kinds of questions on meaningful participation of women that we continue to receive and that we need to be able to respond to and.

0:23:23.200 --> 0:23:25.630
Pia Carmela Paguio
After Juliana's after Julia's briefing.

0:23:27.580 --> 0:23:31.380
Pia Carmela Paguio
Yes. So the Leonard online that doesn't that is an option.

0:23:30.870 --> 0:23:34.190
MBTRoom
Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's something we discussed.

0:23:36.560 --> 0:23:36.980
MBTRoom
Tessa.

0:23:39.880 --> 0:23:42.690
MBTRoom
So and and preferably in person as well.

0:23:44.90 --> 0:23:47.320
MBTRoom
It it be the the UM UK?

0:23:48.840 --> 0:24:9.630
MBTRoom
Delicate had said to me not at that meeting, but previously how appreciative I mean, normally doesn't. He's not abusive, he how appreciative he is of these briefings. I mean, this is the first of its kind, but but I'd be really interested to see in the longer term how this translates into.

0:24:10.790 --> 0:24:13.700
MBTRoom
Funding, you know, like how how?

0:24:14.560 --> 0:24:16.510
MBTRoom
And we can interesting exercise.

0:24:17.980 --> 0:24:20.70
MBTRoom
You know, it's sort of like a trust building thing.

0:24:22.540 --> 0:24:26.90
MBTRoom
Yeah. And unfortunately so one thing that I've said to you, a couple of missions.

0:24:26.850 --> 0:24:36.780
MBTRoom
Um, including Canada, for example, is unfortunately we we were focused very much focused on Afghanistan and making sure the information was getting out.

0:24:36.860 --> 0:24:37.310
MBTRoom
Umm.

0:24:39.210 --> 0:24:44.320
MBTRoom
We were, you know, we were looking at briefings and then also we had the earthquake. Yeah. And that kind of.

0:24:45.360 --> 0:24:53.770
MBTRoom
That so it's good. It's good to highlight that as well. I mean we lost probably 3-4 weeks because attention shifted unfortunately and.

0:24:54.460 --> 0:24:55.170
MBTRoom
Um.

0:24:57.60 --> 0:25:2.910
MBTRoom
Uh, we have to recognize that. Yeah. So we we, I mean I I think we also are are we also share this.

0:25:3.610 --> 0:25:4.560
MBTRoom
This kind of frustration.

0:25:6.210 --> 0:25:12.230
MBTRoom
I'm not sure we want to call it a frustration, but but we also share the the need to to be.

0:25:12.920 --> 0:25:16.160
MBTRoom
To be to be sharing information on that.

0:25:18.40 --> 0:25:20.750
MBTRoom
So, OK, good.

0:25:21.300 --> 0:25:22.40
MBTRoom
And.

0:25:23.10 --> 0:25:25.550
MBTRoom
And and the.

0:25:28.330 --> 0:25:37.340
MBTRoom
There's nothing else that's. Let's move on then I think so. Also looking back and last week we had a Spanish by laterals.

0:25:38.640 --> 0:25:52.520
MBTRoom
Elena, do you want us to say 1? Two things about the bilaterals dentally. I mean, Kelly said a couple of times. Ohh. After Spain interviewed Ohh you that could have been written by UNHCR. So it was kind of a meeting of the minds in many respects.

0:25:53.950 --> 0:25:55.630
MBTRoom
The weather, some follow up.

0:25:57.360 --> 0:26:27.450
Elena D'Urzo
Yeah, thanks. Well, a lot of lesson learned and good practices. But more or lesson learned, like push your donor so that they share an agenda. Final agenda before 10 days ahead of the meeting. So just that that took would be kept in mind. It was. It was actually very positive. It was the first one since 2007. So it really marked strategic moment even more given that it's 2023 and it's the year of the Global Refugee Forum.

0:26:27.980 --> 0:26:40.170
Elena D'Urzo
And Spain will also organize like our operation in Spain will also organize a Spanish refugee forum, including different actors and stakeholder.

0:26:40.660 --> 0:26:57.120
Elena D'Urzo
No, in Madrid. So that's also something that could be considered sort of a pilot and see how that pans out. But it's interesting because it's a matter of just combining together all the different entities that we work with at national level.

0:26:57.820 --> 0:27:29.750
Elena D'Urzo
Um, the there are there will be. Uh, several points to follow up on which Spain is is a bit specific because they always make a reference on how they're one of the our biggest donors because they combine together the funding received from the central government and from Espania Connect nor the national partner. But they sort of committed to additional funding and we're still hoping that we there will start becoming a little more flexible in what they.

0:27:29.880 --> 0:27:30.790
Elena D'Urzo
In what they give.

0:27:32.350 --> 0:27:59.420
Elena D'Urzo
The Spain is also will also hold the the EU Presidency in the second-half of 2023, so there will be a lot of work around that. Don't be surprised if you will hear talking a lot about Latin America and and what we can do around that because that's one of their priorities for this second-half of the year. But in general was was very positive and if there's anything that might also be helpful for other.

0:27:59.820 --> 0:28:15.90
Elena D'Urzo
Uh for other colleagues, mainly the the colleagues that work in with donors based in in countries that also have a strong national partner, I will be, I will make sure I'll share. Thanks.

0:28:16.400 --> 0:28:19.710
MBTRoom
Excellent. Thank you. Thank you, Elena.

0:28:22.220 --> 0:28:23.370
MBTRoom
The.

0:28:25.410 --> 0:28:31.620
MBTRoom
It'll be interesting. I think maybe for others it now time is short, but other other.

0:28:33.260 --> 0:28:44.950
MBTRoom
Capital units here offices in donor capitals may want to look at this model of the national forum ahead of the Global Forum, even if it's not something so ambitious. Sometimes it can be.

0:28:46.140 --> 0:28:48.950
MBTRoom
Interesting where you bring all stakeholders together, you bring.

0:28:51.380 --> 0:28:58.0
MBTRoom
The you know the our government interlocutors, you bring private sector, you bring the National Association of here is 1.

0:28:58.610 --> 0:29:4.180
MBTRoom
Umm, and altogether one room to to look at.

0:29:6.560 --> 0:29:9.750
MBTRoom
What what can be done with an old society approach?

0:29:12.120 --> 0:29:18.930
MBTRoom
So, so far we've only heard of something like this in Spain, but I think there are probably be other other efforts with a different.

0:29:20.100 --> 0:29:46.990
MBTRoom
OK configuration elsewhere hopefully and good. Also we had this the the, the Venezuela situation Solidarity Conference in Brussels on Thursday and Friday. Friday being the high Level segment and it was so we had the DG Leonard Church you know who who's responsible for for ECHO in particular.

0:29:48.130 --> 0:29:51.990
MBTRoom
And also the the Canadian Minister of International Development.

0:29:52.720 --> 0:29:59.30
MBTRoom
Uh, and and I, Commissioner, and then DG of of IOM.

0:30:1.110 --> 0:30:10.340
MBTRoom
The from Latin America, the level of participation was relatively high, so we had the Foreign Minister of Colombia, for example, from Europe.

0:30:11.700 --> 0:30:15.160
MBTRoom
Not so much. And then also from from the US.

0:30:15.240 --> 0:30:19.230
MBTRoom
The the assistant secretary was was there.

0:30:19.450 --> 0:30:33.170
MBTRoom
And the event itself, I think went well, but probably was in a way overshadowed a little bit by some of the statements made by the Colombian Foreign Minister. It's quite a character.

0:30:34.850 --> 0:30:39.190
MBTRoom
The was recognized as a refugee actually in Costa Rica when I was there 20 years ago.

0:30:41.210 --> 0:30:42.680
MBTRoom
Yeah, yeah.

0:30:43.920 --> 0:30:45.150
MBTRoom
The.

0:30:46.570 --> 0:30:46.820
MBTRoom
The.

0:30:46.900 --> 0:31:0.420
MBTRoom
The he on the in a press conference today before he made some unfortunate statements referring to the conference is kind of a gathering of the enemies of Venezuela and where with Venezuela and questioning some statistics and so on.

0:31:2.630 --> 0:31:9.390
MBTRoom
He was a bit more scripted in maybe that was intentional. Yeah, that's what he that definitely what he thinks but.

0:31:10.650 --> 0:31:17.900
MBTRoom
The so that overshadowed things a little bit on on the Friday, even if even if he stuck to a different script.

0:31:19.820 --> 0:31:25.910
MBTRoom
But overall, I think what was clear in this conference was not there isn't a consensus on participation of.

0:31:26.550 --> 0:31:31.360
MBTRoom
Venezuela in this in this setting, this is the third of these conferences.

0:31:32.660 --> 0:31:42.10
MBTRoom
And there's the the some of the Latin American host countries are talking a lot about dialogue and basically talking about inclusion of Venezuela.

0:31:43.510 --> 0:31:49.0
MBTRoom
And there's a rush mall with the government of Manuela. Clearly between a number of host countries.

0:31:50.800 --> 0:31:58.140
MBTRoom
With a number of those countries, right and that contrast with the what we heard from a lot of donors who were talking about.

0:31:59.360 --> 0:32:2.290
MBTRoom
Democracy, human rights, respect for the.

0:32:3.650 --> 0:32:4.300
MBTRoom
The rule of law.

0:32:5.520 --> 0:32:7.330
MBTRoom
And so there's kind of these two.

0:32:8.630 --> 0:32:23.130
MBTRoom
Visions, let's say, and with one clearly wanting to involve in suela and in in in efforts to raise mobilize funds and resources and the other not. Definitely not wanting to go there.

0:32:25.220 --> 0:32:36.240
MBTRoom
So let's see. Let's see how things move in the coming in the coming months. Overall, it wasn't pledging conference, but there were some big.

0:32:37.90 --> 0:32:43.820
MBTRoom
Um commitments of of funding from the US, 170 million Canada 58 million Canadian dollars.

0:32:45.980 --> 0:32:54.610
MBTRoom
From the Inter American Development Bank, World Bank, both grants and and concessional loans so.

0:32:55.680 --> 0:33:8.80
MBTRoom
I think all told it was 800 million fresh funding announced. That's not really sure. Of course. That's for the overall response. The refugee and migrant response. So outside of Venezuela.

0:33:10.360 --> 0:33:15.160
MBTRoom
So that was that was positive and that was more than certainly our colleagues were expecting.

0:33:15.680 --> 0:33:21.950
MBTRoom
Um, but I yeah, I think it was. It was a bit. There was quite a lot of turbulence because of these.

0:33:23.490 --> 0:33:30.440
MBTRoom
The diverging opinions on on participation of of Venezuela and.

0:33:32.940 --> 0:33:34.860
MBTRoom
Looking ahead to.

0:33:33.710 --> 0:33:51.310
Elena D'Urzo
Sorry if I might. If I just my I don't know if you have the the actual breakdown of the different pledges. Otherwise I asked the Bureau to share because I know that some colleagues were asking about that. So just to know that if we don't have it yet, we will come soon. Just that.

0:33:57.130 --> 0:33:57.480
Elena D'Urzo
OK.

0:34:0.810 --> 0:34:1.90
Elena D'Urzo
OK.

0:33:51.30 --> 0:34:6.720
MBTRoom
Yeah, I think it's. I think it's a good, quite good point is for our probably from my follow up because I'm pretty sure I have it. I have the preliminary in my e-mail I think, but it is preliminary. So I think it just share it now from for information purposes.

0:34:7.240 --> 0:34:7.590
Elena D'Urzo
Thanks.

0:34:8.610 --> 0:34:12.10
MBTRoom
Thank you. And then also looking ahead to this week.

0:34:14.130 --> 0:34:22.160
MBTRoom
The we have on Wednesday briefing by Irene Sun on the global Islamic Relief sorry Refugee fund.

0:34:23.980 --> 0:34:29.730
MBTRoom
And I've been or Irene. Irene. Irene. OK. Irene. Irene sun.

0:34:31.530 --> 0:34:35.140
MBTRoom
As a different from Eileen, 10, OK.

0:34:36.980 --> 0:34:56.10
MBTRoom
UM, and then that's the Wednesday. And then on Thursday it's presentation by Jamal Gallelli and Luke Mccallin on the show phase as part of the A briefing series for the internal the entire network of external engagement colleagues.

0:34:57.330 --> 0:35:5.960
MBTRoom
That one, I think is very, very important because of the expectations that are on the part of our donors with regard to reporting.

0:35:7.740 --> 0:35:9.250
MBTRoom
Is there anything I've missed?

0:35:11.640 --> 0:35:14.500
MBTRoom
Either for things that happened last week or what's coming up this week.

0:35:15.880 --> 0:35:18.110
MBTRoom
Selling anything? Yeah.

0:35:20.780 --> 0:35:21.490
Pia Carmela Paguio
Nothing for me.

0:35:19.870 --> 0:35:21.940
MBTRoom
Some you know and one other thing.

0:35:24.300 --> 0:35:34.520
MBTRoom
Good. One other thing is that we will now start with the interviews for the the MOPAN assessment.

0:35:35.650 --> 0:35:41.870
MBTRoom
So in principle, next week we'll have brilliant director level interviews.

0:35:43.130 --> 0:35:43.690
MBTRoom
With.

0:35:45.290 --> 0:35:49.260
MBTRoom
On on the broad areas in the assessment.

0:35:52.330 --> 0:36:2.240
MBTRoom
And so we'll try the idea there is to try and ensure that the the assessment team knows more or less where we would want to be focusing.

0:36:3.40 --> 0:36:4.670
MBTRoom
Uh, their their attention.

0:36:7.230 --> 0:36:8.480
MBTRoom
And.

0:36:9.370 --> 0:36:13.330
MBTRoom
That's more for your awareness. I don't. No one, no one other than than some.

0:36:13.410 --> 0:36:13.980
MBTRoom
Uh.

0:36:15.380 --> 0:36:19.330
MBTRoom
And perhaps PIA will be will be in involved in that I hope.

0:36:19.870 --> 0:36:27.710
MBTRoom
Um and also there is a a meeting then with our UK friends as well on Thursday on the CAA.

0:36:29.360 --> 0:36:32.860
MBTRoom
Which kind of overlaps is underway with the multiprocess?

0:36:33.610 --> 0:36:34.290
MBTRoom
Um.

0:36:35.810 --> 0:36:42.240
MBTRoom
I think that's pretty much it. We can just do a quick tool that job for any other.

0:36:43.280 --> 0:36:45.810
MBTRoom
Issues. I'm sure there are some.

0:36:48.400 --> 0:36:49.570
MBTRoom
Should we start in the room?

0:36:52.960 --> 0:37:1.940
MBTRoom
I I just very quickly. I sent a message there to Jamio about the UM UK MOU for core funding. I know I raised it before, but just again.

0:37:3.560 --> 0:37:15.10
MBTRoom
I I want to be clear that there is no precedence in UNHCR for recovering funds on an on an MOU for.

0:37:15.730 --> 0:37:17.170
MBTRoom
On earmarked funds.

0:37:18.140 --> 0:37:28.740
MBTRoom
They want to be able to say that they can recover funds in the in the event of corruption or or or or fraud or whatever.

0:37:29.150 --> 0:37:30.590
MBTRoom
And which?

0:37:32.10 --> 0:37:37.140
MBTRoom
You know that OCHA have agreed to and the other agencies have not.

0:37:37.830 --> 0:37:43.580
MBTRoom
So I if you can, you look at the e-mail, but I'm assuming there's there is no precedence for it.

0:37:44.830 --> 0:37:45.370
MBTRoom
That's all.

0:37:48.210 --> 0:37:52.700
MBTRoom
Thanks, shared. Yeah, kind of worrisome. Hmm.

0:37:54.260 --> 0:37:55.390
MBTRoom
Also the spirit.

0:37:56.310 --> 0:37:59.70
MBTRoom
Of the graft is not.

0:37:59.810 --> 0:38:0.500
MBTRoom
Exactly.

0:38:1.460 --> 0:38:5.120
MBTRoom
Well, we would hope from hope to hear from a major don't know.

0:38:7.630 --> 0:38:8.820
Ben Farrell
It's been his.

0:38:6.250 --> 0:38:9.530
MBTRoom
And OK any anyone else?

0:38:10.620 --> 0:38:10.970
MBTRoom
Like.

0:38:12.240 --> 0:38:12.920
MBTRoom
Then go ahead.

0:38:13.620 --> 0:38:14.110
MBTRoom
Yeah.

0:38:10.130 --> 0:38:26.380
Ben Farrell
Can I jump in? It's been here shined on that. Yeah. No, we've got something similar right now with Finland, actually. And we've taken advice from Sandra on that. Sandra from last and the finish agreement covers both.

0:38:28.250 --> 0:38:38.890
Ben Farrell
Both earmarked and unearmarked contributions, and this clavette provision. UM, it's not it. It hasn't been. It's not drafted in a way that it is.

0:38:39.510 --> 0:39:10.740
Ben Farrell
Umm. Specifically saying that unearmarked contributions can be recovered. So we're trying to we've taken a suggestion from Sandra and we're trying we will be, we will interpret it that this clause only applies to earmarked contributions that can be identified, otherwise that there's a there's a, there's a line in the agreement that says we're practical and possible you UNHCR will recover the funds and and our interpretation is it's not practical to recover the funds.

0:39:10.860 --> 0:39:13.470
Ben Farrell
If it's unearmarked contribution so.

0:39:15.280 --> 0:39:15.510
Ben Farrell
Yeah.

0:39:15.850 --> 0:39:17.570
MBTRoom
OK, we're practical.

0:39:19.390 --> 0:39:19.880
MBTRoom
Yeah.

0:39:16.660 --> 0:39:20.710
Ben Farrell
Anyway that we can take this offline if it's too detailed for people, but yeah.

0:39:34.590 --> 0:39:34.920
Ben Farrell
Yeah.

0:39:23.670 --> 0:39:35.400
MBTRoom
OK. Yeah, because I know that some of the other agencies the MOU covers earmarked and unearmarked, but for us it's only earmark or only on earmarked. But yeah, I'll, I'll talk to you. Thanks.

0:39:35.700 --> 0:39:36.430
Ben Farrell
OK. Thanks.

0:39:38.60 --> 0:39:40.830
MBTRoom
Good. OK. Thanks Ben and.

0:39:42.680 --> 0:40:2.960
MBTRoom
So I think no for the points from the physical room we we can go to the virtual room. Honey, I can mention that many of the colleagues were there last week. We had the meeting with DRS and IFC on this IC joint initiative. So trying to see you know what are the opportunities.

0:40:3.60 --> 0:40:21.510
MBTRoom
And for funding and basically we decided time is too short or we spend too much time on some of the of the questions. So we have like meetings, I don't know group to see what which opportunities they are for this for this initiative.

0:40:22.650 --> 0:40:26.680
MBTRoom
Just so you know, you were not there. Yeah, OK, any of them?

0:40:33.300 --> 0:40:39.410
MBTRoom
Anyway, it's a great it's. It's the kind of thing that also we we eventually might want to.

0:40:40.650 --> 0:40:42.940
MBTRoom
When the time comes to brief donors on so.

0:40:43.640 --> 0:40:48.780
MBTRoom
I think it's question of more timing, maybe waiting for their something to be a bit more concrete.

0:40:50.800 --> 0:40:51.150
MBTRoom
OK.

0:40:53.490 --> 0:41:4.360
MBTRoom
Maybe just one very broad issue is nothing to do with my donors, but I'm just in, like a bit concerned about our engagement with the general process.

0:41:4.710 --> 0:41:10.630
MBTRoom
Um, which uh Japan are the combiner? I've been spending so much time nowadays.

0:41:12.50 --> 0:41:37.890
MBTRoom
With the capital and the with the with the GF team here. But I think for example I had a meeting with the AYAKI and the Tokyo team the last Friday, then they are little bit struggling because one maybe Catherine if you know like they don't see any kind of global comes in a kind of campaign or whatever like you know about the general. So no one knows about generals in Japan for example.

0:41:38.610 --> 0:42:6.940
MBTRoom
Uh, both in the private sector, government sectors and there they just ask me to ask like and if there any plan to support the capital to let the people know about giraffe. This is just one example. Now it's already March and then some of holidays are quite quickly approaching that they are little bit concerned. You know they capitals because the task to to to mobilize the following society.

0:42:7.810 --> 0:42:34.960
MBTRoom
For the so this is just one thing, like a raised up. When I had a meeting with them, so just just sharing to you, it's not just for convenience, but generally speaking I see no and it's not no. But you know the the in in the in the society and then the capital in the major capital. But yeah just to share image in my recent experience.

0:42:36.380 --> 0:42:41.770
MBTRoom
Are we invited for Jeff informal meeting or?

0:42:42.670 --> 0:42:51.110
MBTRoom
Which is taking place very soon, as that's what I learn and be very informal working level meeting before the one in May.

0:42:51.980 --> 0:42:57.930
MBTRoom
Yeah, no, the next big one is May. So there's another one before, but it's informal where, you know, working level.

0:42:58.50 --> 0:43:10.740
MBTRoom
OK, have have been I I'm importing sometime because I'm very concerned. I'm asked. I asked them to keep me updated and they the same for those convenience like you know.

0:43:12.110 --> 0:43:13.460
MBTRoom
But I don't know.

0:43:15.40 --> 0:43:33.920
MBTRoom
Well, maybe you should. You should find out when it is so we know. And then there's also a there's also a an internal task team within DER, which PIA has been attending, but it's very much focused so far on the event itself.

0:43:35.140 --> 0:43:43.710
MBTRoom
Details about about how it will unfold over those those days in December as opposed to all of the preparation, which is more.

0:43:45.560 --> 0:43:49.530
MBTRoom
What they're asking about in in Tokyo?

0:43:52.10 --> 0:43:57.260
MBTRoom
81 to say a word about about the internal DER preparation.

0:44:0.340 --> 0:44:8.330
Pia Carmela Paguio
And sure, there's there have been two meetings of this task force within DER, and the idea is to.

0:44:9.540 --> 0:44:28.530
Pia Carmela Paguio
To have a sense of what and the divisions plans are and also cost it out so that we you know what we need to do to prepare, as you mentioned Mark, it's very much the discussions so far have been very much focused on the event. In some case the lead up to the event.

0:44:29.990 --> 0:44:43.650
Pia Carmela Paguio
Services like PCs, for example, are looking at refugee participation and costing that out. But but PSP are looking more at the PSP dinner. GCS is looking at the comms around and then they're looking at venues, it's etcetera.

0:44:44.320 --> 0:44:44.740
MBTRoom
Umm.

0:44:44.410 --> 0:44:51.510
Pia Carmela Paguio
So the next step I conveyed so far to them in the two meetings that I've participated that ours.

0:44:52.200 --> 0:45:3.670
Pia Carmela Paguio
Our work has been more on working in kind of shepherding the covener. So Japan, France in particular Switzerland, to an extent and and looking at pledges. I also said to mention to Shirin.

0:45:4.330 --> 0:45:22.190
Pia Carmela Paguio
And this is on the trust we have to um, that to see where there are public, private opportunities for the event itself and in the lead up too, we haven't followed up on that conversation, but it's it's on the agenda and.

0:45:23.150 --> 0:45:31.500
Pia Carmela Paguio
I think the next step from what I understand is that Needa, who is leading this task force, will meet with the GRF team.

0:45:32.250 --> 0:45:36.580
Pia Carmela Paguio
And and share. Well, what do you what do DER plans are?

0:45:39.900 --> 0:45:41.140
MBTRoom
OK. Thanks. Yeah.

0:45:43.240 --> 0:45:44.80
MBTRoom
UM.

0:45:45.520 --> 0:45:47.0
MBTRoom
But I think we we can just.

0:45:48.800 --> 0:45:52.450
MBTRoom
In the communicate that as well in in in the client, when is the next meeting Pierre?

0:45:55.990 --> 0:45:56.940
Pia Carmela Paguio
I don't know yet.

0:45:57.530 --> 0:45:58.310
MBTRoom
OK.

0:45:57.510 --> 0:46:0.270
Pia Carmela Paguio
And it's it's it's not very regular.

0:46:1.140 --> 0:46:12.620
MBTRoom
Yeah. OK. Well, let's around that specifically like this issue of this global kind of campaign that kind of surgery plan. Then I know that the ZAP approach to need already.

0:46:13.590 --> 0:46:23.330
MBTRoom
You'll said they had a call with the Dominique right, and then it's it's raised to her as well. So it's weeks ago. So I hope that the yeah, I needed just to.

0:46:24.440 --> 0:46:31.650
MBTRoom
You know, come up with some fun out of this uh Internet coordination meeting. Then you can share again if you have any plan or.

0:46:33.860 --> 0:46:34.330
MBTRoom
Waiting.

0:46:34.870 --> 0:46:36.780
MBTRoom
You have to. Yeah. OK.

0:46:40.850 --> 0:46:44.500
MBTRoom
OK, now if we move to the virtual room.

0:46:46.40 --> 0:46:55.370
MBTRoom

MBTRoom
From the virtual room.

0:47:31.820 --> 0:47:40.800
MBTRoom

0:47:42.760 --> 0:47:43.960
MBTRoom

0:47:46.520 --> 0:47:48.950

0:48:17.390 --> 0:48:18.590
