UNRCO Tenders, United Nations Resident Coordinator Tenders/ RFP

The concept of Resident Coordinators at country level was discussed in the 1977 annual report of UNDP governing council to streamline the institutional machinery of the UN development activities, reducing the administrative costs and establishing  a single official to coordinate these activities at the country level.

The General Assembly resolution 32/197 of 20 December 1977 establishes resident coordinators to be appointed at country level. Appointed by UN Secretariat, Resident Coordinator is the highest post at country level.
