The objective of the Third Village Community Support Project for Guinea is to strengthen the local government financing system and improve local service delivery in rural communes and to provide an immediate and effective response in the event of an eligible emergency or crisis. There are four components to the project, the first component being local investment fund. The aim of this component is to finance a series of small investments (sub-projects) in the form of Sub-grants in selected CRs through the Local Investment Fund (LIF). The LIF will be the mechanism for transferring funds to CRs and once transferred will be managed by the local communities. The second component is the institution and capacity building for sustainable local governance and community participation. The objective of this component is to set up sustainable mechanisms for long-term local development financing and community participation, particularly through the consolidation of Guinea’s decentralization reforms and the institutionalization of the mechanisms and organizational structures to ensure: a) sustainable local development financing and b) high quality support to participatory processes at the community level. The third component is the Project Coordination and Management. The project will use the same monitoring and evaluation (M&E) system as under PACV2, but appropriate instruments and indicators for certain new aspects regarding participatory budgeting and monitoring and evaluation will be added. In the meantime, to accelerate the process of national appropriation a formal partnership will be established with the unit in charge of monitoring the implementation of the LPN-DDL Finally, the fourth component is the Immediate Response Mechanism (IRM).
