Introduction and Purpose of the Manual Sample Clauses

Introduction and Purpose of the Manual. In an effort to reduce poverty and enhance decentralized public service delivery to the poor, the Government of Ethiopia (GoE), with the support of International Development Partners, embarked on the Ethiopia Protection of Basic Services (PBS) project. PBS supports Ethiopia’s progress towards the Millennium Development Goals and helps improve broad based economic growth, governance and basic public service delivery. The Ethiopia Social Accountability Program 2 (ESAP2) is part of PBS and seeks to improve basic public service delivery by local governments. It aims to strengthen the use of social accountability tools, approaches and mechanisms by citizens and citizen groups, civil society organizations, local government officials and service providers as a means to make basic service delivery more equitable, effective, efficient, responsive and accountable.

Chapter 5 is set up according to the principle of FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions) and will provide the SAIPs with answers to their most frequent and pressing questions on the implementation and reimbursement of their ESAP2 grant project costs. Lastly, all standard formats which are required to be used in the different phases of the ESAP2 grant scheme are annexed to this Manual.
