Description

Background and Purpose

This Annual Progress Report (APR) presents the progress towards results and main achievements of the
OECS Secretariat (OECSSEC) during the July 2012 to June 2013 fiscal year. The purpose of this report is to
provide stakeholders with an analysis of actual results in relation to the over-arching Strategic Objectives
which guide the work of the Secretariat. These Strategic Objectives provide the high-level results
framework for the Secretariat, and frame the results identified in the 2012-2013 Annual Work Programmes
(AWPs) developed by each of the Secretariat’s Divisions and Units. In addition to presenting the status of
progress towards these results, the report also identifies contextual developments which have affected
the work of the Secretariat, as well as the main challenges and lessons learned that will guide programming
in the coming year.
