The objective of the project is to institutionalise good governance reforms and practices at all levels by Government and civil society organisations towards poverty reduction, protection of rights and sustainable human development.

The purpose of the project is to increase and render more equitable access to public services by repartition of benefits to vulnerable groups in three target groups (women, youth and children – with a strong consideration of minorities’ representation) in approximately 30 selected municipalities, through improved local and national good governance processes.

The project will be implemented under direct management of UNDP as the Administrative Agency. Each of the three other UN agencies, UNICEF, UN WOMEN, and UNESCO, as well as UNDP will undertake key activities in the project.
