The purpose of this Activity is to support the GOM (Government Of Madagascar) to achieve enhanced accountability and effectiveness.
USAID maintains that progress toward those objectives will result from USAID assistance to improve governance in three areas.First, the management of civil and business
court cases through the establishment of a better case management system and training of court personnel on key areas of the law.
Second, management of financial resources for development through (i) increased commune capacity to mobilize domestic resources and improved timeliness and transparency of financial flows downward from the central government to local government, (ii) improved budget formulation and execution in selected government entities and better capacity of the government to absorb donor funding.
Third, the responsiveness of the GOM to its citizens through better training of personnel charged with local administration and the development of local platforms for citizen participation in local development and the capacity of citizens to take advantage of such platforms.
