The project has two components - one called "Changed-agent support", seeking to flexibly (and urgently) address capacity bottlenecks in the President's effort to secure stability and good governance throughout the elaboration and implementation of the ongoing constitutional reform.  The second component seeks to prepare and provide longer-term capacity development support to key institutions that will emerge in the ongoing reform, and in particular to the overhaul of the civil service administration.

The CDF will aslo establish policies for the recruitment, retention and promotion of highly qualified civil servants on a merit basis, with special attention to a new generation of individuals with international training.

As an incubator project, it will allow a variety of complex reform issues to be fleshed out and then pursued through follow-on activities and projects. UNDP will act as an effective partner to ensure efficient utilization of resources, programme coordination, better targeting of activities, monitoring of implementation and evaluation of results.
