A/HRC/20/4 and its engagement with authorities and other stakeholders at country level. To this end, and as more fully set out in this section, OHCHR worked on a broad range of issues including advocacy for the ratification of the Optional Protocol to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the monitoring of economic, social and cultural rights and the integration of a human rights-based approach to policy development. OHCHR concentrated its focus, in particular, on the provision of technical support, capacity-building and training. Through the provision of support to field presences, the Office has strengthened the incorporation of economic, social and cultural rights into their work plans and the rolling out of related activities, including in Central Asia, Southern Africa, West Africa and South America. 15. In 2011, OHCHR provided technical assistance to governments, civil society and other national stakeholders, at their request, to integrate human rights standards and principles in the assessment, formulation and monitoring of national development plans, poverty reduction strategies and public budgets. In particular, support was given to the Czech Republic, Ecuador, Kenya, Liberia, Mexico, Nepal and seven French-speaking countries in the Central Africa region through technical missions, training workshops and regional events. As result of these efforts, a total of 107 representatives from governments, civil society and the United Nations were sensitized and trained on a human rights-based approach to policy and budget monitoring, analysis and advocacy. 16. With the technical assistance of OHCHR, the National Secretariat of Planning and Development of Ecuador developed a national guide on the formulation of public sector policies. The guide was adopted at the level of the Council of Ministers, establishing a human rights-based approach as a mandatory requirement for all sectors and executive departments. By way of follow-up, OHCHR is supporting the Government to pilot this guide in the water and sanitation sector, with promising results. 17. The Office also continued to support United Nations country teams on a human rights-based approach to the formulation of United Nations Development Assistance Framework (UNDAF) and common country programming processes, including by delivering training workshops to UNDAF roll-out countries in partnership with the United Nations System Staff College (UNSSC). Furthermore, OHCHR contributed to several trainings and induction programmes targeted at Resident Coordinators and the United Nations country team leadership, organized by the United Nations Development Operations Coordination Office and UNSSC. As a result, 170 Resident Coordinators and Heads of United Nations agencies were trained in 2011 on human rights leadership and coordination. 18. OHCHR organized a regional workshop on a human rights approach to the budget process in Cameroon in December 2011. Delegations from seven countries, comprising officials from finance and planning ministries, national human rights institutions and civil society, participated in this event and identified concrete entry points and follow up actions to further advance human rights in their respective national development agendas, public policy and financial frameworks. 19. OHCHR co-sponsored the Regional Meeting on HIV and the Law, held 6 to 8 February 2011 in Dakar for ministers of justice and judges in West and Central Africa in collaboration with the Joint United Nations Programme on HIV/AIDS (UNAIDS), the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the African Association of Highest Francophone Jurisdictions.
