  1. Community-Driven Development and Collaboration with Local Governments A Perspective from the World Bank Mark Woodward, ECSSD, WB

  2. Overview • The World Bank’s Social Development Strategy • Community Driven Development (CDD) • CDD and Local Governments • Example: Albanian Development Fund • Example: Village Investment Program (Kyrgyzstan) • Example: Rast Valley, Tajikistan

  3. The World Bank’s Social Development Strategy • Inclusive societies - promote equal access to opportunities. • Cohesive societies - willing and able to work together to address common needs, overcome constraints, and consider diverse interests. • Accountable institutions - transparent and serve the public interest in an effective, efficient and fair way.

  4. Community-Driven Development • A process that gives control of decisions and resources to community groups • Relies on communities to organize themselves collectively and engage other actors in the private sector, civil society, and government. • Support for CDD generally includes • strengthening and financing accountable and inclusive community-based organizations (CBOs); • facilitating community access to information; and • forging functional links between CBOs and formal institutions.

  5. CDD and Local Governments • CDD often accused of bypassing local governments. • Objectives of CBOs and local governments should be similar – to promote the collective interests of members and constituents. • Hence CDD activities that encourage CBOs to work with local governments should be more effective.

  6. Example: Albanian Development Fund • An “older-style” social investment fund – focusing on infrastructure rehabilitation. • Sub-projects are: • selected by commune/municipal councils based on community demand • contracted out by LGUs to private contractors. • ADF facilitates, ensures quality control, and channels funds from donors to contractors.

  7. Example: Village Investment Project (Kyrgyzstan) • A “new style” social investment fund. • Local Investment Unions prepare Investment Strategies and Investment Plans based on Village Investment Union inputs. • Project provides block grants to finance micro-projects included in Investment Plans.
