The programme is a response to national priority needs
and a request from the Government for UN support in the identified intervention
areas. In terms of the design, governance of implementation and benefits are
strongly nationally owned. Its overriding objective is the capacity at national
and local levels with hands-on, demonstrated capacity of the key stakeholders
and beneficiaries to identify and implement training programmes through the use
of participatory approaches that engender local ownership. The requirements are
much larger than the resources available and it is part of the programme
strategy to use these funds as seed money for further resource mobilization.
While the government faces extreme limitations, their
commitment to the success to this project will be key. The Monrovia City
Corporation, the Liberia Water and Sewage Corporation, and the Ministry of
Public Works have been closely involved in problem identification and priority
setting. The working time of Government staff which also serve for purposes of
training and coaching, will be an important contribution from the counterpart.
The country which is still battling with this
unprecedented outbreak cannot be expected that within the span of 12 to 18
months full sustainability can be achieved. The programme intends to develop a
second phase which it will be possible to address the sustainability factor
with more credibility. Still, it is expected that the results of the
intervention will remain, but they will not be ready to continue without
outside technical and financial support. Some of the project immediate
objectives are also long term by nature.
