Summary
Relevance
All informants confirmed that the Programme?s interventions were aligned to the local governments and communities needs of South Central and its goals and objectives were consistent with UN and Somali Government strategies.
Achievements
South Central mostly benefited from programme related mobilization where the information on the strategies of the programmes and its interventions were disseminated. In Mogadishu, much of the work stopped at this level due to insecurity and late entrant districts such as Adado enjoyed more programme benefits in the area of fostering LG transparency, accountability and participation all of which were triggered by the local government institutions due of community participation in development planning that paved the way for the transparency and accountability elements to oversee the implementation of the DDF (collective oversight in project procurement and implementation).
Systems Improvement
The key systems improvements identified by key informants were in the areas of Public Finance Management, Procurement and Planning.
Investments
For Adado district, the LDF was seen much as the means towards developing institutional capacity through LDF allocations and procurement and implementation good practices with prospects that such a system would be mainstreamed in the districts PFM.
Training
The provision of training delivered with the aegis of the programme was seen as satisfactory but inadequate in terms of the time allocated to training workshops.
Impact
Without JPLG1 there would have been stagnation in Odado district because support from the Diaspora was little. On had it stopped in 2012 again it was pointed out that because Odado came on board late it would have been a still birth.
Conclusion
The interview data secured in relation to the Programme?s activities and achievements in South Central reveals some uneven support to Mogadishu, BRA and Odado districts. Chronic insecurity in the former appears to be the key factor explaining the weak progress, performance and impact of the programme over the years.
