The Gambia Public Administration Modernization for Citizen Centric Service Delivery

active

The operation seeks to enhance domestic resource mobilization and financial reporting, human resource management, and citizen engagement in the education sector. It centers around short-to-medium term enhancements that can support improved service delivery in the long-term, including: (a) supporting enhanced domestic resource mobilization which can enable fiscal space to finance service provision; (b) strengthening of public administration capacity which can enable better management of service delivery; and (c) improving “demand-side” actors’ abilities to oversee and demand better service delivery performance through improved quality, timeliness, and access to government financial reporting, as well as the use of citizen engagement mechanisms in the education sector. An IPF as a TA component will support Program implementation. The component will strengthen government capacity and provide specialized support and high-level technical expertise, including diagnostics, analytical pieces, and advisory work to facilitate the Program’s implementation across its three results areas. In addition, it supports monitoring and evaluation (M&E), audit of PforR results, and enhanced development planning capacity of the MoFEA to ensure effective and efficient implementation of the strategic priorities and interventions of the overall Government program, the Results-Focused National Development Plan (RF-NDP) 2023-2027.
