Support to Fiscal Decentralization
Project description
The main objective of the project is to assist the Government in re-defining the model for financing decentralizaed social services, towards a model that incorporates national and local disparities and differing capacities relative to the real expenditure needs.
Objectives
The project aims to support the development of several fiscal scenarios, based on the analysis and estimated revenue gaps, addressing also the need for greater accountability and responsiveness to poverty and social inequalities.
Results
A consolidated Feasibility Study was developed outlining a set of options and specific policy recommendations for the development of an intergovernmental transfer system in the country.
Following the initial training needs assessment in the area of improvement of the fiscal capacities, training curriculum was developed and training delivered to equip key personnel with knowledge and skills for engaging in policy discussions and management of intergovernmental transfers.
