Integrated Local Development Project Phase II: Final Evaluation
"Overall, ILDP has been highly successful in introducing a number of significant systemic changes. The project made some notable achievements in its outcomes as the rallying point for strategic planning in BiH. ILDP is in an advanced stage of institutionalization of the strategic planning system in the FBiH. This includes establishing a planning system, which is long-term, participatory, integrated and which is pro-poor, socially inclusive and gender sensitive. It has begun to consolidate linkage with the public financial system, which is a noteworthy accomplishment. It has capacitated the local self-governments to perform fundamental functions that allowed them to represent the preferences of the citizens in the decision-making process. It has led to realistic planning within the existing budget allocation. A visible transformation in the planning culture (integrated, consultative, inclusive and transparent) was observed at local government and cantonal levels moving the bar towards EU norms and standards. Introducing such systemic changes has influenced and benefited a large number of people who were perhaps excluded from the development process."
