The state and non-state institutions and partnerships supported will be those that promote, mediate, respond to, or monitor to inform DFGG. The four priority reform areas, where DFGG approaches will be supported are those identified in the Governance Pillar of the Country Assistance Strategy (CAS), i.e., private sector development, management of natural resources, public financial management, and decentralization and citizens partnerships for better governance. The project has three components: (i) support to state institutions; (ii) support to non-state institutions; and (iii) coordination and learning. In component one, four state institutions will improve and scale up programs that promote, mediate, respond to, or monitor for DFGG in the priority reform areas of the CAS. In component two, non-state actors will develop their own programs in the priority reform areas. Some of these programs will be in partnership with the four state institutions supported in component one (funded through partnership grants); others will be independent of them (funded through thematic grants). The third component supports overall coordination of the project and promotes learning, awareness raising and capacity building on demand-side approaches. Show Less -
