The overall objective of the Non-State Actors Programme is to make the formulation and implementation of GoB policies, strategies, and related programmes more responsive to the needs of the population, including the marginalized and disadvantaged sections of the population. The project purpose is to enable NSAs to engage more effectively with Government and donor agencies in development processes.
The overall objective of the Ministry of Local Government Capacity Building Programme is to reduce poverty and improve the livelihoods of the poor and disadvantaged sections of the population, including youth and women. The project purpose is to strengthen the capacity of MLG (Department of Social Services) and Councils to promote community development and self-reliance.
The global objectives of the assignment are to provide the Government of Botswana and the European Commission with sufficient information to make an informed judgment about the performance and impact of the 9th EDF NSA and MLG capacity building programmes, and take decisions about any required changes to project scopes (such as objectives, duration, financing, TAs, management arrangements, etc). Furthermore it aims at providing support to GoB to the successful preparation of the 10th EDF programme "Empowering of Civil Society".
