This assignment is launched under the LGNSP (Local governance and non-state actors Support programme). The programme aimed at greater involvement and effective participation of NSA in local governments. It also aimed at strengthening local government structures at District and Community Council level though a wide range of capacity building efforts.
This Training and Development Needs Assessment (TDNA) has been identified as a strategic review tool to assist with identifying the organisational skills required by the local government structure to deliver on its mandate, vision and mission (demand side) and the human resources development interventions (supply side) that will enable the organisation to achieve the identified human capacity requirements.
Within the scope of the LGNSP programme, the current study focused on assessing the training and development needs of local government in order to enable both the LGNSP and the local government structures themselves to identify and address the skills and human resources development needs required to enhance organisational capacity and service delivery.
