1. Country Strategy Implementation 

Current situation

Country Strategy: a few concepts and characteristics 

o Strategic framework for cooperation 

• basis for future calls for projects 

• ‘match’ between Flemish ‘offer of expertise’ and Southern needs and 

priorities 

• Multidisciplinary 

o Developmental relevance and sustainable capacity building 

o Timeframe: Long term - 12 years – with possibility of strategic 

revision every 6 years (every strategic programme) 

o Country Strategy Document 

�policy document with strategic options regarding themes, sectorial and 

regional preferences 

�possible instruments and mix of interventions 

�Available on the website vlir-uos under countries 


Opportunities and expectations from country 

strategies and programmes 

•Clear framework – country strategy paper as context 

• Increase of societal impact through coherence with 

development priorities and poverty reduction 

strategies 

•Higher visibility of actions and results 

•High level policy dialogue 

•Donor coordination, synergies 

•Various spin-offs 

• National and South-South cooperation 

• Network facilitation 

•Promoting Flemish Higher Education

2. Institutional University 

Cooperation 

- General principles -

IUC Programme : General Objective 

Empowering the local university as institution 

to better fulfil its role as 

development actor in society 

=> End goal is to « change lives » 


Main features of the IUC Programme 

o Long term cooperation geared towards institutional 

development and strenghtening 

o Financing and facilitating cooperation 

� Partnership 

� Match between the priorities of the partner university and 

the interest and expertise offered by Flemish counterparts 

� Coherent set of interventions/synergetic projects 

o Building capacity: 

• Academic (MSc/PhD education; research, publishing...) 

• Internal service delivery (ICT, Library) 

• External service delivery (services to society) 

• Managerial capacity (planning, HRD, international relations etc) 


11

Institutional University Cooperation 

o Currently the major programme within VLIR-UOS cooperation => 

about 30% of annual budget 

o Budget: 

• variable depending on local needs and opportunities for 

cooperation; depending on the number of thematic projects 

which were recommended/approved; 

• Annual budgets of an IUC are differentiated 

– € 250.000 EUR/year for a mono-thematic programme, 

– if more themes/projects were included up to 560.000 EUR/year 

o The IUC Programme started in 1997 with 4 partners 

o Currently 14 ongoing programmes in Africa & Latin America 

o 7 Phase Out partners in Africa, Latin America and Asia

A successful IUC programme 

• Spirit of partnership, dialogue and mutual respect; 

• Participation of high level academic leadership is crucial (decision making 

structures in the university) 

• Incorporation into local structures and systems (university, 

regional/national) �Ownership 

• Development Relevance => focus on changing lives (university and society=> 

interaction with government, local development actors, society in general) 

• Content based on match between the priorities of the partner university and 

the interest and expertise offered by Flemish counterparts 

• Programme logic => grouping a coherent set of interventions/synergetic 

projects guided by the strategic plan of the partner university => 

interdisciplinary approach with focus on 1 or more expertise areas

3. General principles NETWORK university 

cooperation

Characteristics of the NETWORK 

o A well-defined theme with obvious and high impact at the country level 

o Addresses nation-wide needs in the educational and research area 

o Less of a capacity building initiative, but the focus is more on multiplication of 

opportunities, extension and harvesting (post IUC) 

• CTU – Vietnam; UCLV – Cuba and ESPOL- Ecuador 

o Should focus on cross-institutional interactions 

• such as in inter-university curriculum development, joint degrees at Master and 

Ph.D. levels 

• Links with other networks 

• Links with Flemish universities 

o Co-funding should be included through the universities and other donors 

o Need for strong logistic and managerial support structures at level of the 

coordinating university

Management framework of a NETWORK 

o Management in and mainly by the South 

• Coordination through a ‘coordinating’ or ‘Hub’ university (CTU-UCLV- 

ESPOL) 

o At least 3 other involved partner universities in the country 

o Flemish coordinator and North team of Network Advisors 

o Annual Budget : 250.000 EUR/year 

• Administrative overhead – management of the programme at level of the 

facilitator university 

• At least 50% of budget for actions at level of other universities 

o Planning phase: 6 years 

• Midterm-assessment after 3 years 

• Preparatory year (2012) – phase in / (pre-)formulation 

• Renewable depending on the evaluation 


A successful management structure 

• High level support from university authorities of the hub and other partner 

universities 

• Agreed upon, transparent, management structure (VLIR-UOS guidelines translated 

into partner specific management agreements) => management manual and 

procedures 

• Support structure – programme support unit – is put in place at the “hub” 

university and has a clear set of operating procedures under the leadership of a 

local Network Programme coordinator 

• Good Communication at all level: using the “common sense”, transparency 

• Respect for deadlines and agreements: timely submission of plans, reports, 

organisation of mobility and procedures for purchase of goods 

• Common focus/group spirit => focus on common development goal & key result 

areas 

• Include stakeholders early in the process but be realistic in planning of extension 

results=> gradual process but important to know what lives in society in order to 

work towards results with societal benefits => multi-stakeholder platforms

to local context/needs)

4. Next steps in the formulation process

Next steps 

o Nomination of Flemish coordinators, project leaders and 

Network advisers 

• Occured in May 2012 

o Identification to formulation 

• Preparing for Formulation Missions 

• Start Year « 0 » => Pre-Partner Programme agreement 

– organisation of formulation mission – August - September 2012 

– installation of a Programme Support Unit 

– development of management procedures (operational, financial, ..) => IUC 

Management Manual 

o Drafting proposals by 15 October 2012 

• During and following the formulation missions 

• What exactly ? => 


Formulation of programme / project proposals 

• Partner Programme (PP) phase I 

– Relevant for the coordinators 

~ Programme and contextual information 

~ Programme objectives/results 

~ Overall budget framework and overall plan (logframe) 

– Relevant for project leaders 

~ Project plan for 6 years (PP) / logframe based 

~ Project background/objectives/results/activities/budget 

• Each year Annual Planning and Reporting 

– Activity Programme (AP) : planning document. 

~ Y 1 limited extra info in view of 15 Oct. 2012 

– Annual Report (AR) => Oct year ‘X+1’ 

• Annual Financial Report (AFR, excel formats) 

• Annual Activity Report (AAR, narrative format) 


Important elements for consideration 

o Concept notes that will be presented are proposals from the 

South and as such indicative or pre-match 

• Basis for formulation 

• there is room for change and improvement within the strategic 

boundaries (institutional, country strategic) 

• Flemish team and formulation mission with project level workshops 

will bring new input 

o Aim for and build upon a win-win concept! 

o Be receptive but dare to be critical and assist in shaping ideas 

jointly 

o There is a programme behind the project 

o Preparatory year is a learning process 


What is a Formulation mission? 

o Key moment in IUC start-up 

o Flemish teams (coordinators and project leaders) travel to the 

partner institute 

o One week workshop 

• Setting out the framework 

• PCM training 

• Introducing formats and management cycle 

• Project level workshops with external stakeholders 

• Project formulation and budget allocation 

• Sharing of management systems and policy framework 

o Expected results 

• Flemish PL have a better view on local situation 

• Team-building 

• Work on project proposals according to PP (partner programme) and AP (Activity 

Programme) formats 

– Prepared by the South, but first collective moment South-North
