Risk assessments are undertaken as part of UNRWA’s annual planning cycle and updated every quarter. Risk management and mitigation and where necessary, contingency planning informs Operational 1, 8, 10, 16, 18, 19, 23, Plans but there are not specific mitigation strategies for operational risk. UNRWA’s MTS has a matrix 24, 28, 31, 35, 36, 37, of risk associated with each of its strategic outcomes. Corporate documentation outlines how risks 52, 61, 142 are reported on and relevant risks are also outlined in Field Office Strategic Plans. Financial risk has received a greater emphasis in the organisations planning and assessments recently in light of the organisation’s funding constraints, with a high-level of scrutiny from HQ on Field Office expenditure and cash flow.
