Findings |
Recommendations | |
---|---|
1 | Overall, the SES Programme recruited and deployed 98 professionals to strategic areas where they were most needed. The programme was highly relevant and the right intervention. The GOL should implement the exit strategy for the SES Programme aimed at ensuring planned government financial commitment to any future programming and reducing a complete reliance on donor funding. |
2 | Anchor the programme to address the current capacity gaps and restructure the programme to be able to target the real needs and demand of MACs. To maximize the impact of the programmes in the future, a critical need assessment will be required to match programme support to planned incremental implementation of the AfT. The GOL should identify unique skills and develop two to three core areas at each MAC. |
3 | Properly integrate the SES Programme into the Liberian Civil Service. The GOL should ensure that the SES programme is not seen as a programme outside of the Civil Service. This was the original purpose of the programme and it still remains critically significant for the future of programme. The GOL should provide the necessary budgetary support to integrate the SES professionals into Civil Service under the National Capacity Development Unit within CSA. |
