What is the role of the Peacebuilding Support Office?
Under the authority of the Secretary-General, the Head of the Peacebuilding Support Office (PBSO) provides overall direction and guidance on the programme management of the PBF and monitors its operations. In consultation with the Senior Policy Group, the Head of the PBSO reviews the country priority plan and endorses the priority plan. Once the priority plan has been endorsed, the Head of the PBSO determines the overall funding envelope for the country, on the basis of available balances and an indicative costing of the priority plan.
