Is Fiscal Decentralisation Delivering on its Promises? A Review of the Theory and Practice in Developing Countries.
This Policy Brief is a synthesis of donor-supported performance-based development projects, focusing on local development and decentralisation.
This guidance aims to transfer the vision into daily practice. It does so by: [a] Clarifying organizational entry points to PFM, decentralization and local governance projects. [b] Defining key principles for effective PFM, decentralization and local governance interventions. [c] Creating awareness for complementary strengths and resources of SECO and SDC. [d] Providing practical guidance for institutional and thematic cooperation between SDC and SECO.
This summary provides the main findings from the stock-take on gender and fiscal decentralisation that took place from 5th to 15th May 2015, between Gendernet and DDLGN. The exchange focused on the gender dimension in intergovernmental fiscal transfer schemes.
Purpose of this paper: (1) to develop an understanding of sub-national PFM and the motivations for the SDC to invest in this area; (2) to examine and categorise the types of sub- national PFM interventions; (3) to review existing SDC programmes that engage in sub-national PFM and identify potential roles for SDC.
