  • Promoting alignment and cross-agency collaboration with respect to the existing accountability functions of other global institutions in the WCAH landscape;
  • Identifying gaps and opportunities to advocate for accountability investments and policy through PMNCH partners at the national level, driving deeper engagement with accountability-focused partners, such as parliamentarians and the media;
  • Collaborating with the Partner Engagement in Countries Committee (PECC) to promote robust national multi-stakeholder platforms based on the meaningful inclusion of all constituencies;
