The objective of the Community and Social Development Project for Nigeria is to sustainably increase access of poor people to social and natural resource infrastructure services. There are three components to the project. The first component is the federal level- coordination and program support. At the federal level, this component will be supervised by the federal ministry of finance, while the direct responsibility for implementation will rest with the existing Federal Project Support Unit (FPSU). The FPSU will be responsible for providing technical backstopping to state agencies on procurement, financial management, gender, environment, and local government capacity issues. The unit will organize the appropriate technical assistance based on requests from state agencies or needs identified by the monitoring and evaluation system. The second component is the Local Government Authority (LGA)/sectoral ministries capacity and partnership building. This component will be implemented by the state agency in all participating states and will provide funding for capacity building, skills training and hardware types of investments. The objective of this component is to establish and strengthen a partnership between LGA and communities. Finally, the third component is the community-driven investment. State agencies will manage this component. Funding will be provided for Community Development Plans (CDPs) of selected communities, based on specific criteria, including broad based community participation in plans formulation, micro-project identification and preparation, and a matching contribution from communities.
