Promoting Decentralisation III (VP)

active

As a result of the local elections held in Togo at the end of June 2019, the project is intended to finance town halls in newly created (rural) municipalities. These do not yet have the necessary administrative infrastructure to carry out the tasks assigned to them. The project thus makes an important and visible contribution to successful decentralization in Togo, with which the population has high expectations in terms of better access to public services and increased political participation. The objective is to offer municipal services in the new town halls by competent staff and to make the infrastructure available to the elected municipal councils. The total cost amounts to EUR 9.2 million, of which EUR 1.2 million is the Togolese government's own contribution.
