Background

The United Nations Social Cohesion and Reconciliation Index for Eastern Ukraine (USE) is based on the methodology of the Social Cohesion and Reconciliation Index (SCORE), originally developed in Cyprus by UNDP and the Centre for Sustainable Peace and Democratic Development (SeeD). USE is a state-of-the-art, tailor-made monitoring and assessment mechanism designed to provide high-quality analysis for targeted recovery, peacebuilding and development policies and interventions, specifically within the context of eastern Ukraine.  The USE data is subject to both descriptive and predictive analysis, which provides an understanding of social dynamics in conflict-affected communities.

 The USE methodology engages national, regional and local government and civil society partners throughout the entire process, which allows for an appropriate measure of the relevant dimensions for current, planned, and potential interventions in the field of social cohesion.  Consequently, USE is both a transparent procedure and a purpose-designed analytical tool that allows for informed strategic choices for recovery and development assistance by implementers and policy makers alike.

 The first USE wave of data collection and participatory analysis was conducted in 2017 and the results are available on a dedicated, interactive website: use.scoreforpeace.org.  On the basis of the success of the first wave, the three participating UN agencies (UNDP, UNICEF and IOM) intend to conduct three more annual waves (2018-2020), and are seeking to recruit qualified professionals to join a dedicated USE team.
