Guiding principles for a mature country program include…
1. A long-term vision is essential.
2. Based on the vision, an overall strategic framework should
be developed, with representation from all partners.
3. Decisions should be made based on appropriate, empirical
information.
4. With limited funding, prioritization is required. This needs to
reflect the most important needs.
5. Funding levels should be multi-year and consistent over time
-continuity.

Guiding principles for a mature country program include…
6. Data collection should focus on the data needed to

7. Joint capacity building initiatives should be relevant and
cutting edge.
8. Monitoring should have a baseline and consistent,
standardized indicators.
9. There should be an attempt to link programs together into
partnerships.
10.Efforts should be made to share interventions (e.g. a
prevention toolkit that includes interventions that are
pooled).

• Allow source and destination sites to be linked
(e.g. prevention, legal, protection, etc.)
• Complement country program efforts
• Allow comparisons to be made between
countries
• Improves sharing between and among countries
• Allow regional impact to be assessed
• Avoid “reinventing the wheel”
• Allow for lessons to be learned/shared
