EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Presidential elections in Somaliland were held on 26 June with the opposition party candidate, Ahmed Mohamed Mohamoud Siilaanyo winning. At the time of writing the president elect was drawing up a new government and cabinet and it is anticipated with a reduced number of Ministries.

A reasonably stable environment in some districts in South Central Somalia has led to a review of the possibility of re-engagement of JPLG phase two activities in two target districts, and JPLG has commenced efforts on undertaking security and conflict assessments in Adado and Hamarweyne districts to see whether JPLG activities can in fact be carried out in these two districts. Final decision will be made following the results of this assessment/analysis in August.

Phase one JPLG activities are progressing well in the 16 districts of Mogadishu. For example priority projects have been identified and widely consulted in all 16 districts and nine of the proposed projects have received preliminary agreement and approval to proceed with the tender process. Works have commenced in five districts, after receipt of the detailed action plan, pre-intervention photos, GIS coordinates and tender documentation. These are: District Office in Hammarweyne District; vocational training centre for women in Waberi; market rehabilitations in Wardigleey and Wadajir, and expansion of a primary school in Deynile. Two of the rehabilitation works are near completion and will be handed over in mid-July.

The draft local government procurement guidelines for Somaliland (SL) and Puntland (PL) were translated into Somali, the procurement training service providers (in SL and PL) received refresher training, and the training modules were finalized in preparation for the training of the Mayors and District Council staff.

A two-day introductory public private partnership (PPP) and policy framework dialogue workshop intended for the leadership in both central and local government was held in PL. The workshop provided participants with an introduction to the concept of PPP, the rational for their use, and the various forms of PPP.

The District Development Planning, Budgeting and implementation system and manuals are now endorsed by the respective MOIs. Modules one to six have now been reviewed and the final changes are being made to them the review included an increased focus on gender issues.

Implementation of the 2009 service delivery projects continued in the 2009 target districts. In , Somaliland: Hamaas Health Post; Lasadacawo Market and Burao Kibir water supply were completed; with the forth project Burao Shiekh Market at 97% complete with paint works remaining. In Borama, Somaliland: Construction of Gravel Road at Sheikh Alijawhar; construction of Gravel Road at Sheikh Osman and construction of Berked (water storage) at Gurayacawl were completed. The other the two community centre’s at Sheikh Makahil and Sheikh Ahmedsalan remain at 70% and 59% respectively and the Mayor is taking action to address the delays with contractor (i.e. the contractor will be penalised and contract terminated should he fail to deliver within agreed timeframe). It is expected that these two projects will be completed early in quarter three. Operations and maintenance plans for all of these projects have been prepared by the district councils with JPLG support. The JPLG will continue to monitor the operations and delivery of services from these assets.

Extensive support has been provided to MOWDAFA to take a lead role at the national level, and to work together with the Ministry of Interior and District Councils to ensure sensitization on gender and women’s rights and public role, especially aimed at local government officials, clan elders and women leaders. Discussions started in this quarter with MOFASD to identify the activities where support would be needed. JPLG has worked to ensure an appropriate level of representation of women in meetings, trainings or consultations, but much more work is still needed. The percentage of women in JPLG training is 16% for Puntland and 19% for Somaliland in this quarter.

In Somaliland, community user monitoring groups have been established and are signatory to the payment certificates of the on-going priority service delivery projects. For the on-going 2010 project preparation and design process, a community project assessment form has been developed, which communities are required to sign off as part of the project approval process. This is to ensure not only that the projects being designed for implementation are those that they had prioritized but that they are also in agreement with the design itself. This is to ensure that communities have a say in design elements where appropriate and there are no conflicts arises when project implementation actually begins.

By the end of the second quarter total JPLG expenditures for 2010 were US$5,212,185 which equates to 33% of the available resources or 28% of the 2010 approved work plans and budgets.

1 PROGRESS

1.1 CONTEXTUAL CHANGES IN THIS QUARTER Presidential elections in Somaliland were held on 26 June with the opposition party candidate, Ahmed Mohamed Mohamoud Siilaanyo winning. At the time of writing the president elect was drawing up a new government structure/set up and a new cabinet is anticipated and with it changes in key positions in the Ministries including Director Generals. Though we do not anticipate any significant shift in commitment towards on-going decentralization reform and related programmes, there will be need for the JPLG to re-engage, establish new relationships with and orient the new leadership in relevant ministries.

The period in the run-up to the elections i.e. the voter registration and campaign period were generally peaceful however there were some interruption, delays or postponement of activities for example the inter-ministerial meeting to be held to endorse the local government procurement guidelines in Somaliland was postponed to after the elections; and poor participation in the procurement training for local district council staff of key personnel such as the Executive Officers who were busy with the voter registration. The DDF validation workshops for all the six districts in SL were also postponed due to the upcoming elections. This was to avoid the process being politicized or used as a campaign forum, and the validation workshops have been planned to be held after the elections.

The parliamentary elections are not due until September 2010 after which only district elections can take place. Changes in the councils as a result will require re-runs of the training modules targeting the council members and mayors.

The peaceful, free and fair Presidential elections in Somaliland in the June 26 elections and acceptance of the election results by the outgoing President brings increased hope for the people of Somaliland and its ability to remain peaceful and progress despite the critical situation in South Central Somalia. Following this, it is expected that parliamentary elections and then district elections can take place. The election campaign resulted in a stricter travel policy for UN staff and during the month up to the election, and the extensive campaigning process has resulted in a very limited access to central and district governments partners, this has slowed down implementation in the month of June, and also led to the postponement of the 2 nd quarterly workshop for Somaliland planned for the end of May.

Extensive discussions took place during the first quarter of 2010 on stabilization of Mogadishu and this has led to increased focus on activities that may help stabilize the situation in the capital. While at JPLG level discussions on engagement continues, the overall stabilization dialogues seem to have slowed down and the much awaited TFG offensive did not occur. A reasonably stable environment in some districts in South Central Somalia has led to a review of the possibility of re-engagement of JPLG activities in two target districts, and JPLG has requested UNDSS to carry out a security assessment in Adado and Hamarweyne districts, and have discussions with other organisations to carry out a conflict analysis to see whether JPLG activities can be carried out in these two districts. Final decision will be made following the results of this assessment/analysis.

In Puntland a central government reshuffle took place on 1 March so that there now are twenty three ministers and thirty vice ministers against previously eighteen ministers plus four state ministers and twenty seven vice ministers with the number of ministries remaining at eighteen. Of 8

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery special interest to the JPLG is that the mayor of Bosasso was made Vice Minister with the Ministry of Interior, Local Government and Rural Development.

1.2 PROGRESS AGAINST PLANNED ACTIVITIES

1.2.1 POLICY AND PLANNING The draft local government procurement guidelines for Somaliland (SL) and Puntland (PL) were translated into Somali, the procurement training service providers (in SL and PL) received refresher training, and the training modules were finalized in preparation for the training of the Mayors and District Council staff.

A two-day introductory public private partnership (PPP) and policy framework dialogue workshop intended for the leadership in both central and local government was held in PL. The workshop provided participants with an introduction to the concept of PPP, the rational for their use, and the various forms of PPP. It provided leaders with a common foundation relating to the various aspects of PPP. It also provided a forum to dialogue on the proposed PPP Policy Framework and to receive further input and comments on the framework. These comments will be integrated into the policy framework which is to be translated, validated and endorsed by the government.

Work on sector decentralization commenced towards the end of quarter two with two sector studies for roads and solid waste sectors initiated with education to follow. The studies focus on reviewing the current legal framework that governs delivery of services, the functional assignments at local and central level, mapping the current delivery mechanisms, resources and costing. The work will identify, provide options/guidance on establishing coherent legal and policy frameworks for sector decentralization, highlight institutional, resource and capacity development needs. This work will feed into the broader decentralization policy reform work that also started during this quarter with a study on decentralization policy options which will guide further policy dialogue over the coming year.

There has been an agreement this quarter amongst the team responsible for drafting the Mogadishu City Law (formerly known as the Mogadishu City Charter), about the principles that this Law will set out. This law is rights based and describes what the citizens can expect from the city and vice versa. This agreement was reached during a mission of the Mogadishu City Law team in Djibouti where they also ensured that their agreements were in line with the discussions surrounding the drafting of the federal constitution.

In Mogadishu, the “Participatory District Rehabilitation in Mogadishu” project, that correspond with the agreed JPLG strategy for “phase one” situations, has intensified implementation on the ground. Under the project, implemented by UN-Habitat and service provider SAACID, all 16 Districts and the Bermuda enclave are scheduled to have a priority service delivery project funded. The rehabilitation and improvement of prioritised public infrastructure is part of a wider process that is aimed at strengthening local capacities, fostering dialogue and improving governance in the Districts.

By the end of the second quarter, priority projects had been identified and widely consulted in all 16 districts and nine of the proposed sub-projects have received preliminary agreement and approval to proceed with the tender process. Works have commenced in five districts, after receipt of the detailed action plan, pre-intervention photos, GIS coordinates and tender documentation. These are: District Office in Hammarweyne District; vocational training centre for women in Waberi; market

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery rehabilitations in Wardigleey and Wadajir, and expansion of a primary school in Deynile. Two of the rehabilitation works are near completion and will be handed over in mid-July.

Under the project a district mapping exercise focusing on the inventory of public buildings and their status is ongoing and by the end of the second quarter draft digital maps and databases of four districts had been produced. Further, conflict management capacity building workshops have been held in 8 districts and initiated in another one, bringing together various stakeholders and strengthening the process associated with the rehabilitation and prioritization components.

The Land and Urban Management Institute (LUMI) in Hargesia was officially opened by H.E. the President of Somaliland on 31 May 2010. The capacity assessment of the land management sector was completed in May with a final report in June 2010. The recommendations in this report will now be used to develop the capacity building programme for land and urban management at LUMI. As a start, the land reform secretariat, from where the land policy formulation and land law reform activities will be coordinated, has already been set up at LUMI.

Hargesia City Charter: The Hargesia City Charter bill was tabled and debated in the House of Representatives in May 2010. The legislative process will continue in the current session of Parliament after the break occasioned by the presidential elections.

Urban Planning Manual for Somaliland was completed in June 2010. Electronic versions of the manual have been published on the UN-HABITAT website and will also be distributed on CD. two hundred hard copies (English version) have also been printed for distribution. The manual will initially be used for on-the-job training in selected local authorities in Somaliland. The manual will also be translated in Somali.

Geographic Information Systems (GIS) for Garowe: The establishment of municipal GIS has finally started in Puntland. The first GIS project in Puntland will be carried out in Garowe and this will be the foundation of establishing a property taxation system. Initial discussions have been held with both MoI and the Garowe municipal council. The council has provided a project office at the municipal council compound. An Agreement of Cooperation for the implementation of the Garowe GIS project is currently under preparation.

The new Bossaso Sub-Office for Puntland Ministry of Interior was completed on schedule by the end of April 2010. Following the procurement of prioritized furniture and equipment items, the new building was formally handed over and inaugurated during a festive ceremony on 20 June, in the presence of MoI officials and other Puntland Central and Local Government dignitaries, UN JPLG staff and representatives from other UN Agencies, and members of the local press.

1.2.2. CAPACITY DEVELOPMENT The entire District Development Planning, Budgeting and implementation system is now part of the capacity development manuals developed through JPLG and now endorsed by the respective MOIs. Modules one to six have now been reviewed and the final changes are being made to them. During the review process, the decision was made to adapt the manuals for different audiences, which has been completed during this quarter. For instance, for Module 2 that outlines how to ensure the planning and budgeting is participatory has three different versions, one aimed at the community groups, one aimed at the district councilors and one aimed at the more senior members of the district administration, such as the Mayor, which is just an overview. The modules are as follows:

10

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

1. Induction to local governance for district staff and councilors. 2. Participatory planning. 3. Budgeting. 4. Annual investment programming. 5. Procurement. 6. Monitoring and Evaluation.

Currently also under development are: 7) asset management, 8) basic administration and 9) Local Development Fund (LDF).

A letter of agreement has been signed between the Ministry of Interior in the South Central region and UNDP that outlines the assistance that will be provided to the Ministry of Interior and the Benadir Administration. Some of the recommendations from the capacity development assessment completed in the first quarter form the basis of the agreement. UNDP will work with the Ministry to ensure that all departments have mandates in line with the organizational mandate and all its staff members have terms of references and have received administration training. The LOA also sets out the continued support for the Mogadishu City Law (formerly Mogadishu City Charter) process and the setting up of a monitoring and evaluation unit.

In Somaliland the two day introductory training (Module 5C: Procurement Overview) for Mayors; and the seven day training (Module 5b: Procurement Training) for the district council staff (targeting Executive Officers, Department Heads, Public Works, Finance and Administration personnel) from the six target districts took place. The procurement training for Puntland Mayors and District Council staff will take place in July.

The district council public works departments continued to receive on-the-job mentoring support in the supervision of the short term service delivery projects initiated in 2009. This on-the-job mentoring is part of the capacity development effort directed towards strengthening the district public works units. It involves training the district engineers in contract administration; as well as the contractors in work planning and in use of monitoring and reporting tools.

An intensive training of trainers was delivered to further build the competency of the local training service providers to train and support the initiation and management of Public Private Partnerships for local service. Representatives from local private sector companies from both Puntland and Somaliland also participated in the training.

1.2.3. SERVICE DELIVERY Implementation of the 2009 service delivery projects continued in the 2009 target districts. In Berbera, Somaliland: Hamaas Health Post; Lasadacawo Market and Burao Kibir water supply were completed; with the forth project Burao Shiekh Market at 97% complete with paint works remaining. In Borama, Somaliland: Construction of Gravel Road at Sheikh Alijawhar; construction of Gravel Road at Sheikh Osman and construction of Berked (water storage) at Gurayacawl were completed. The other the two community centre’s at Sheikh Makahil and Sheikh Ahmedsalan remain at 70% and 59% respectively and the Mayor is taking action to address the delays with contractor (i.e. the contractor will be penalised and contract terminated should he fail to deliver within agreed timeframe). It is expected that these two projects will be completed early in quarter three. Operations and maintenance plans for all of these projects have been prepared by the district councils with JPLG support. The JPLG will continue to monitor the operations and delivery of services from these assets.

11

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

Eight of the nine projects from the short term process in 2009 in the two target districts in Somaliland have been completed. The ninth project is being delayed due to discussions over land. Land documents are part of the project approval process, so the district administration has a copy of the land ownership documents and the MOI and Boroma district council are in the process of sorting out this issue. The total number of beneficiaries for Somaliland projects is 60,390.

In Puntland, nine projects out fourteen prioritized projects from the short term process in 2009 are nearing completion with an average of 72% complete. Five of the projects prioritized by Bosasso district council had to be reprioritized as the council could not find available land. The council is revising the AWPB and validating the new projects. The total number of beneficiaries for Puntland projects is 78,783.

1.3 PROGRESS AGAINST GENDER STRATEGY JPLG started its collaboration with MOFASD in Somaliland and continued its collaboration with MOWDAFA in Puntland with the following activities:

1.3.1. POLICY AND LEGISLATIVE LEVEL • Discussions were held in Somaliland with MOFASD and also with all sectors on the decentralization policy options and it was agreed that gender mainstreaming and equality would be one of the key principles of the decentralization policy review. • Women and marginalized groups constitute more than 50% of the target groups for services. • District mobilization process is ongoing in 12 target districts in Puntland, to help ensure that District Councils, committees and steering groups encourage the participation of women and strive to meet a 30% minimum representation level.

1.3.2. PROGRAMMING AND ANALYSIS • Gender-specific targets and gender-sensitive indicators have been developed during this quarter through mainstreaming of gender into the Outcome Evaluation System and MIS. • The gender audit has been completed and initial workshops held by MOFASD and MOWDAFA. This will now contribute to the further strengthening of the gender strategies in Puntland and Somaliland. • Women are benefiting from the economic opportunities that are usually created through the agreed development projects, in particular in related to the construction of the community markets.

1.3.3. IMPLEMENTATION • Extensive support has been provided to MOWDAFA to take a lead role at the national level, and to work together with the Ministry of Interior and District Councils to ensure sensitization on gender and women’s rights and public role, especially aimed at local government officials, clan elders and women leaders. Discussions started in this quarter with MOFASD to identify the activities where support would be needed. • JPLG has worked to ensure an appropriate level of representation of women in meetings, trainings or consultations, but much more work is still needed. The percentage of women in JPLG training is 16% for Puntland and 19% for Somaliland in this quarter. • Modules 1-5 are reviewed with increased focus on gender issues.

12

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

Contract documents used by the Districts all stipulate that there shall be no discrimination in recruitment based on gender (or clan, religion, political affiliations, age, and disability).

UN-HABITAT has signed an agreement with MOFASD (Somaliland) for provision of trainings in gender and the involvement of women in local governance in all JPLG target District Councils during 2010. The initial training is expected to take place in early July, pending UNDSS security clearance for missions outside Hargeisa. An agreement has been reached with MOWDAFA (Puntland) and will be signed within the coming weeks.

A joint training of trainers (ToT) for Somaliland and Puntland trainers was held in Hargeisa 27 th April – 6th May with an international Senior Capacity Building Expert.

1.4 PROGRESS AGAINST THE CONFLICT ANALYSIS JPLG has a conflict analysis strategy addressing implications and mitigating factors in particular in relation to:

• The district selection process : the risk would be that districts are identified for political reasons. The mitigating factor that has worked well is that JPLG developed a set of selection criteria that were agreed to by all. • Formula for allocation of funds: In a context where data is limited and accurate information in particular on population is absent, there is a risk that information would not be reliable and that decisions on allocations would be disputed and lead to conflict. As a mitigating risk, JPLG works to engage stakeholders in the process to agree on formula for allocation, and also to work with partners to get as reliable information as possible. • Consultants placed in the ministries for capacity development and on the job training: It is a risk that difference in remuneration packages for consultants and permanent staff will cause conflict and disincentives to government staff. As a mitigating risk, JPLG has focused strongly on joint work planning and appropriate institutional placing of the consultants to ensure on the job training and capacity development. • Project prioritization and the danger of elite capture is a huge risk. As a mitigating factor the project prioritization process is being constantly monitored. When the districts make decision on project prioritization MOI and JPLG staff is present to monitor that the process follows the agreed to criteria for selection. • UN agencies and coordination: There is a risk that the UN agencies promotes their own rather than the JPLG agenda, and that lack of coherent support will increase rather than reduce transaction costs. As mitigating factor, JPLG has developed a standard capacity development package covering all agencies’ capacity development support, one integrated work plan and budget, quarterly work planning review sessions, and an agreed to approach for how to work in Somalia has mitigated this risk. • Procurement: The risk of manipulation of procurement processes is a potential, and may undermine the transparency and accountability principles of good governance. Extensive support to procurement processes and transparent procedures help mitigate this risk. • The focus on MOI and lesser focus on sectors: The ministries of Interior and the ministries addressing gender issues have been the focus of JPLG support to the central government level. It is a risk that sector ministries will feel sidelined in the decentralization process. Dialogues started in 2010 with some of the sectors to ensure their engagement in the

13

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

dialogue of decentralization policy options, and this will increase buy-in and participation. While this serves as a mitigating factor, it is being done as sector involvement is critical for the process. • Security assessment and conflict analysis: It is a risk that engagement in areas in south central Somalia may cause increased attention by opposition groups and may lead to increased insecurity. As mitigating factors, it has been agreed that before decision is made on the engagement in two proposed districts in South Central Somalia JPLG will need a security assessment by UNDSS and a conflict analysis by a third party. BCPR’s tools will reviewed for the used for this process.

In Somaliland, community user monitoring groups have been established and are signatory to the payment certificates of the on-going priority service delivery projects.

For the on-going 2010 project preparation and design process, a community project assessment form has been developed, which communities are required to sign off as part of the project approval process. This is to ensure not only that the projects being designed for implementation are those that they had prioritized but that they are also in agreement with the design itself. This is to ensure that communities have a say in design elements where appropriate and there are no conflicts arises downstream when project implementation actually begins.

Similarly sector line ministries are involved in the design and approval process, ensuring that projects adhere to set technical standards and regulations. They are also engaged in the preparation of operations and maintenance plans. This is to avoid potential conflict or dissonance between sectoral and local level service delivery and investment plans.

UN-HABITAT has organized conflict management capacity building workshops in (PL) 24 th April – 2nd May and is expecting to extend the trainings once the District Councils are in place in Garowe, Bosasso and Gardo.

As part of the Participatory District Rehabilitation in Mogadishu project, conflict management capacity building workshops have also been held in 8 Districts of Mogadishu and initiated in another one. These trainings will continue for the remaining 6 Districts and the Bermuda enclave during July- October 2010. Reports reflect a keen interest in the trainings by District Administrations and participants. Refer to the matrix under Achievements and Results for details.

Puntland A two-day introductory public private partnership (PPP) and policy framework dialogue workshop intended for the leadership in both central and local government was held in PL. The workshop introduced the PPP concept, rationale for their use and various forms of PPP arrangements. It provided a forum to discuss and provide comment and input to the proposed PPP policy framework which will be incorporated and the policy will then be endorsed.

South central Somalia In order to facilitate the setting up of local government procurement systems and improved public – private partnerships arrangements for service delivery ILO agreed to support the TFG to observe the development of these processes in Puntland. Four representatives from the TFG, Ministry of Interior (MOI) and Benadir Administration attended the PPP workshop in Garowe (above) on invitation by the PL host Ministry of Interior, to take advantage of the training, allowing them gain an appreciation of the on-going process of developing PPP process based on international standards and developing a PPP policy framework. Four representatives attended. The hosts, MOI, PL extended an further invitation to the SC representatives to a study tour of the Ministry of Interior and the JPLG inter-ministerial meeting, the Council and to a site tour of the on-going JPLG short term projects. The SC representatives indicated the PPP workshop and study tour were an invaluable and enriching learning experience allowing them to hear, see and discuss and exchange with their counterparts on local governance and service delivery issues and challenges they are facing. Of note was that one of the SC representatives and the Garowe District Council Head of Public Works recognized each other as they once both worked for the local government of Burakahba in Bay Region, South Central Somalia!

Sector Studies Work was started on sector studies for the roads and solid waste management sectors. The studies will review current functional assignment, map current delivery mechanisms and capacities. These studies will provide guidance on legal and policy reform areas, as well as highlight institutional, resource and capacity development needs. They will also provide input to the wider decentralisation policy dialogue. UNICEF In preparation for the education sector study in Puntland, discussions with the respective UNICEF section were held to brief them on the decentralization activities under the JPLG program and agree on their role and inputs needed to support the process. The TOR for the education sector study were discussed and it was agreed that, the study will review and improve on the exiting ‘Kakaar Mode’ (this is an education model currently under pilot in Kakaar region that has 5 districts including Gardo which is one of the JPLG sites). It was also agreed that the there is a need to sensitize and actively involve the PL MOE in the process and also get their commitment. The evaluation findings will feed into the decentralization policy options.

3.3 OUTCOME 1.3. UP TO 24 RURAL AND URBAN COUNCILS ’ CAPACITY TO GOVERN AND MANAGE SERVICE DELIVERY ENHANCED (By Outcome 1.3./2nd quarter 2010 Agency) UN- Somaliland HABITAT Governance Capacity Building A Training of Trainers workshop on Gender and the Involvement of Women in Local Governance was held in Hargesia from 27 th April to 6 th May for the trainers from the Ministry of Family Affairs and Social Development, with whom an Agreement of Cooperation has been signed for the delivery of capacity building workshops in the six target districts in Somaliland. Trainings will begin on 10 th July in Sheikh. Somaliland Municipal Association In the second quarter of 2010 the progress was recorded as follows: Review of constitution 75 % completed; development of internal procedures for administration, finance and human resources 30% completed; new website established at www.algasl.org; regular contact of SMA with ALGAK, ULGA and SALGA established; membership with observer status in the international non-profit-making association 'Network of Regional Governments for Sustainable Development' based in Brussels; successful participation of SMA in World Health Day 2010 celebrations through tree planting and awareness raising event in Hargesia. Urban Planning Urban Spatial planning support provided to District Council, planning departments as follows: Sheikh: Urban planning work shop in Sheikh was held (including RUSA), and site survey was undertaken and discussed with local planning team under the district office for the preparation of urban plan. Hargesia: Agreement was reached with the focal point officer of District of Hargesia to International organizations that urban planning workshop (including RUSA) will be in July 2010. Agreement has been reached with MoPW, and the Districts of Hargesia and Sheikh regarding up-coming trainings based on the urban planning manual: intensive training (4-5days) for technical persons, and 1-2 days general workshop for councilors, relevant ministries and authorities will be held. Land & Urban Management Institute -Capacity assessment missions to Hargesia, Burao and Berbera held in February and May 2010 -Official opening ceremony for LUMI presided over by HE The President in June 2010 -Final capacity assessment report produced in June 2010 Next steps (under AoC with MoPW): -Technical assistance (GIS equipment and software) in basic land/urban analysis and mapping for local authorities and ministerial staff Municipal Finance: The draft Roadmap for Municipal Finance Policy Development has been completed. I t is scheduled to be introduced to local counterparts initially during the JPLG Progress meeting in Addis Ababa, the bi-monthly meetings in Hargesia, and the Municipal Finance Workshop in Burao, which is scheduled for the 2 nd week of August. Following consultations with stakeholders, it is expected that an agreed upon final Roadmap document can be completed by September 2010. Progress by service provider, Terre Solidali, against the agreement of cooperation for the implementation of Automated Municipal Finance Systems in Somaliland was as follows: − Development of Best Practices Manual: The Draft manual was completed in the 1 st Quarter of 2010. The presentation of the manual has been postponed for various reasons and is now rescheduled to the beginning of August. On-the-job training on the manual will be conducted between August and October 2010. − Development of basic customized training package for municipalities; Manuals for AIMS application, Introduction to IT and Introduction to Accounting Practices were edited into a standard format and finalized during the 1 st Quarter of 2010. PowerPoint presentations and exercises were prepared for each subject and training session. The BIMS manual has been frequently updated and modified, in line with requests and inputs from users (District Council staff and executives). − Small scale pilot projects for revenue collection improvement : Attention for improved revenue 19

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

collection focused on the preparation of databases for property taxation and business licenses; databases verification and updating continued in Burao, Sheikh, Boroma and Berbera. As a pilot project, decentralized revenue collection is under discussion for one District of Hargesia. − Consolidation of IFMS in the seven A-grade municipalities : AIMS and BIMS : AIMS is now operational and working properly in 6 out of the 7 targeted Grade-A municipalities. The majority of staff involved in financial administration has been trained and is now sufficiently familiar with basic accounting concepts. All 7 A-grade municipalities completed accounting data entry for the respective periods. Financial reports have been generated, approved and submitted to the Ministry of Interior. Additional training for accounting staff from Las Aanod was organized in March and May; the latter consisted of a 15-day combined session (theoretical and practical) in Burao, following a request by the DG of MoI. The commitment to apply the system unfortunately remains low. In line with adjustments requested during the November 2009 MF workshop in Hargesia, the following AIMS software upgrades have been installed: - Security Manager for Segregation of Duties - Provision of storing the Original and Revised Budgets during the year - Provision of Signatures in AIMS financial Reports - Comparison of two periods with different cost centers and projects Billing systems in Hargesia, Burao, Boroma, and Berbera are fully operational, while the newly installed BIMS in Erigavo is also working well. The re-introduction of automated billing systems appears to be successful in Gebiley. A number of setbacks are still being encountered with BIMS, including resistance to the system by municipality staff, and lack of required data or tariffs. In line with requests from municipalities, the following BIMS modifications have been developed and delivered: - Security Manager for Billing Operations and duties - Additional filtering of data in various reports - Provision to create new charges - Provision to change passwords - Customer list separated by tariff codes. Burao Automated Billing and Accounting Systems were successfully installed at the Burao Water Agency , and staff trained on the application of these tools between March and June 2010. The Municipality requested for the generation of consolidated property tax bills for the past 10 years, with the aim of sending out estimated balances (based on assumed non-payment), and assessing the correct amount after discussions with the customer, despite UN HABITAT’s expressed concerns about the approach. Berbera Municipality collected information on business licenses and generated bills through the automated billing system. A committee was formed to reconcile the properties database and proceed with the generation of the bills. Hargesia municipality, due to the large numbers of bills and receipts, and sub-standard recording practices by collectors, is still facing problems in the identification of tax payers. To minimize this problem, new Bills now contain Bar-Codes and a cut-out slip, which should be attached to the receipt prepared. Boroma Municipality: BIMS has been running smoothly for the past 6 months; Business Licenses have been updated in the database, bills have been generated and delivered. The municipality is still in the process of validating the properties database. All the general vouchers raised in the municipality are recorded in the billing system. Gabiley Municipality: All bills for Business licenses have been produced and receipts are captured. The property database prepared by Cadastral Surveys has been handed over. The property tax billing systems has been set up, and data entry is currently ongoing. Erigavo Municipality : BIMS was installed during the 1 st Quarter and staff successfully trained. The Municipality prepared databases for properties and business licenses. The databases were completed during the 2 nd Quarter, and billing is currently in progress. Las Anood Implementation has been put on hold until staff commitment and accessibility improves. Installation of IFM tools at the Ministry of Interior and the Magistrate of Accounts Office: Additional 20

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

automated modules for MoI and MgOA (developed in December 2009) were installed and piloted between January and March 2010 with one being: Module to produce consolidated reports at MoI level (using municipal financial data from various municipalities). Staff from the Department of Regions and Districts was trained on the use of the consolidation module; on a monthly basis, financial databases from the municipalities are being collected and transferred to MoI computers. Staff from the Magistrate of Accounts office has been trained in the application of Consolidated AIMS, monitoring of municipal data and receipts, review of financial reports, and financial audit procedures. These new skills will be applied in practice during the next financial audit of all municipalities. − Website Development : The draft design of the dynamic municipal website has been completed. The draft site has been uploaded for testing purposes and can be accessed through the following links: WEBSITE URL: http://amf2.betatest.org.uk/Index.aspx ADMIN URL: http://amf2.betatest.org.uk/admin/Login.aspx Discussions with MoI, SMA and the municipalities are still ongoing to determine the contents, assign responsibilities in future management and maintenance, and provide links to the existing SMA and municipal websites. Installation of computerized and integrated accounting modules in selected municipalities of lower grade: Based on the findings of the Feasibility Study for introduction of AMF systems in Lower Grade Municipalities (completed in December 2009), Odweyne and Sheikh were selected to pilot the automated systems . Neither the AIMS nor the cost-centre for JP grant management are presently operational in Odweyne . Due to various problems with the persons selected by the Municipality properly trained staff are currently not available. Sheikh Municipality: AIMS and BIMS were installed, respectively in January and February 2010. Data for all properties and businesses (collected by the municipality) has been entered into the databases for the billing system. Bills for business licenses have been generated and delivered to the tax payers. The implementation in Sheikh has exceeded expectations: databases for property taxes and business licenses have been prepared, the system has been adopted within a very short period of time, and the data is consistent and correct. Despite the somewhat discouraging experience in Odweyne, this proves that the systems can indeed be implemented in lower grade Districts. The main lesson from Sheikh is that the provision of motivated and capable staff is the key to success.

Puntland Governance Capacity Building The selected trainers from the Ministry of Women Development and Family Affairs (MOWDAFA) attended a Training of Trainers workshop on Gender and the Involvement of Women in Local Governance from 27 th April to 6 th May. An agreement has been reached with the Ministry and an Agreement of Cooperation will be signed for the delivery of capacity building workshops in the four target districts in Puntland.

A capacity building workshop for District Councilors in Managing Conflicts and Differences was held by service provider PIDAM in Galkayo from 24 th April to 2 nd May 2010.

Urban Planning Urban planning support to local authorities continued following the previously defined priorities for urban interventions i.e. the upgrade of road infrastructure and transport network. Initial focus was on technical assistance in the development of preliminary Road Network Development Plans for Garowe and Bosasso based on the comprehensive strategic urban plans. The road network plans consider future road network extensions, put the current urban growth into consequent context and builds a tool for first planning control over unbuilt areas. Work in the other target districts, Gardho and Galkayo, was not possible due to security situation and restricted access.

Garowe Road Network Development Plan, preliminary proposal, under development:

Planning support to Garowe municipality also in budgeting of bypass-road construction and traffic re- management of central square in balance with Road Network Development Plan.

Bosasso Road Network Development Plan, preliminary proposal, under development:

Bosasso Road Network Development Plan, preliminary proposal, under development:

Technical assistance to municipality also in analysis of strategic best location for planned lorry terminal and the revision of the port area road access in balance with Road Network Development Plan. Based on the planning support for the road plans, the capacity of Garowe and Bosasso district councils to put development targets and infrastructure into the ‘bigger picture’ of overall town development was enhanced. Network building between the different authorities was initiated as basis for holistic urban planning.

Municipal Finance: The international expert on municipal finance carried out a first mission to Puntland between 19 and 24 June. The report with recommendations on the way forward for policy development and the implementation of automated systems is expected in July 2010. Preliminary activities for the full-scale roll out of a Municipal finance intervention in the 4 JPLG target districts of Puntland started in January 2010. Progress up to the end of the 2 nd Quarter is as follows: − Installation of AIMS in 4 Municipalities (Garowe, Gardo, Bossaso and Galkayo):  Computer equipment and accessories were procured and the AIMS system installed in the 4 target Districts 22

UN Joint Programme on Local Governance and Decentralised Service Delivery

 Staff in 4 Districts, appointed by for the external grants management, were trained on basic accounting, ICT and the application of AIMS.  District staff has been able to enter the standardized Chart of Accounts into the system, and prepare correct financial reports, showing the receipt of District Grants and sub-project expenditure.  Financial reports from the 4 Districts were submitted to MoI in May.  One Terre Solidali and two MoI staff are constantly monitoring progress. − Installation of Automated Financial Management tools at the MOI and MgOA in Puntland  The AIMS and the consolidation systems have been installed at MoI, and the operators have been trained. However, since the AIMS are currently used for external grants only, very few data will be consolidated, until the systems have been fully implemented and applied in municipal accounting and reporting.  Due the fact that municipalities are not yet dealing with billing systems and the installed AIMS is not set up for day to day municipal operations, there are currently no records to be monitored/audited by the MgOA. − Support to Municipal Finance Systems Review, Related Policy Development and Legal Change in Puntland:  A Municipal Finance Baseline survey, including Garowe, Galkayo, Gardo and Bossaso Municipalities, as well as the MoI, was carried out during the 1 st Quarter of 2010.  The draft baseline survey document includes specific research topics (Public service planning, External grants management, Information and financial management, Revenues policy and collection capacity, Budget decision-making, Service delivery, Monitoring, control and evaluation and Visibility of the public sector), Cross-cutting areas (Human resources, Law infrastructure, Private sector and Civil society’s involvement), a proposed methodology for the consultative process and a proposed strategy and road map for systems implementation, policy development and legal reform. During the 2 nd Quarter, a consultation workshop was held in each District, followed by a common session with district and central Government representatives in Garowe. Participants requested that a second common workshop be organized to reach agreement on the proposed way forward; it is essential that this workshop (now scheduled for the 2 nd week of August) is attended by all key actors in local government finance. In line with the ongoing consultative process, the final draft of the report will be completed by September 2010.

South central Somalia Governance Capacity Building As part of the Participatory District Rehabilitation in Mogadishu project, conflict management capacity building workshops have been held in 8 Districts of Mogadishu and initiated in another one. These trainings will continue for the remaining 8 Districts and the Bermuda enclave during July-October 2010. Reports reflect a keen interest in the trainings by District Administrations and participants. The workshops have also served the purpose of bringing together various stakeholders from the districts, strengthening the process associated with the rehabilitation and prioritization components.

The districts are: Shingani (27 March – 4 April), Hamar-weyne (7-15 April 2010), Waberi (19-27 April), Hodan (1-9 May 2010), Deynile (12-20 May), Wadajir (May – 1 June 2010), Hamar-Jajab (5-13 June), Dharkeynley (16-24 June) and Hawl-wadag(28 June-6 July)

Mapping of Public Infrastructure

As a new component in UN-Habitat’s work in Mogadishu, the District mapping exercise focuses on the inventory of public buildings and their status. The ongoing mapping work builds upon the existing district profiles, with the aim of expanding their content, while updating and enhancing knowledge on the status of public infrastructure in all the districts of Mogadishu. The team of two resource persons was trained on mapping and GIS (during the previous quarter) and six senior assessors have, under the overall guidance and technical support of UN-Habitat, produced draft digital maps and databases of four districts.

3.5 OUTCOME 1.5. ALL ELIGIBLE DISTRICT COUNCILS (UP TO 24) HAVE AT LEAST 1 PRIORITY SERVICE DELIVERY PROJECT FUNDED ANNUALLY (By Outcome 1.5./2nd quarter 2010 Agency) UN- Somaliland HABITAT Solid waste management Funding for SWM activities in Somaliland is currently not available. Consequently, only limited technical support and follow-up on previous activities could be provided by CESVI (service provider) during the first and second quarter of 2010.

Puntland Solid waste management Based on a review of previous proposals prepared by solid waste consortia in all 4 JPLG Target Districts, an Agreement of Cooperation was drafted between UN-HABITAT and CESVI for the implementation of Solid waste management activities in Puntland. Due to delays in the internal approval procedure at UN-HABITAT, the anticipated date of commencement of this new Agreement has been pushed back to 1 August 2010.

South central Somalia Under the Mogadishu Participatory District Rehabilitation Project, all 16 Districts and the Bermuda enclave are scheduled to have a priority service delivery project funded. The rehabilitation & improvement of prioritized public infrastructure is part of a wider process that is aimed at strengthening local capacities, fostering dialogue and improving governance in the Districts.

By 30 th of June, priority projects had been identified and widely consulted in all 16 districts; to date, nine of the proposed sub-projects have received preliminary agreement and approval to proceed with the tender process. Activities in the Bermuda enclave are currently on hold due to the present instability. For five districts, further assessment work is taking place and for two Districts the need to re-identify the priority has been agreed with the implementing partner and the District authorities.

Works have commenced in five districts, after receipt of the detailed action plan, pre-intervention photos, GIS coordinates and tender documentation. These include: 1 District Office in Hammarweyne District; 1 vocational training centre for women in Waberi; two market rehabilitations in Wardigleey and Wadajir, and expansion of a primary school in Deynile. Other agreed upon District priorities include: a market section for blacksmiths and shoemakers in Boondheere; sporting ground for youth in Hamar-jajab, MCH in Darkenley, and public water wells in Hawl Wardag and Heliwa Districts.

UNDP Somaliland /Puntland • 8 of the 9 projects in two target districts in Somaliland have been completed, and one project is delayed due to discussions over land. 1 9 projects out of 14 prioritised projects in two districts are nearing completion in Puntland (an average of 72% completion) with the District Basket Fund allocated for 2009. 5 of the projects prioritised by the Bosasso district council has to be reprioritized as the council could not find available land. The process is currently ongoing to revise the AWPB and for the council to validate new projects. The total number of beneficiaries for the Somaliland projects are 60,390 with a a total value of USD 170,010, that is an average investment cost per beneficiary of USD 2.82. Below are pictures of the completed water storage in Gurayacawl village in (left) and of the Community Market shelter in Lasadacawo village in during construction (right).

The total number of beneficiaries for the ongoing Puntland projects is 78,783 (as three Bosasso projects has not yet started), and a total value of these projects are USD 107,016.45 that is an average investment cost per beneficiary of USD 1.36. 2 Below are pictures from the plastering of the garbage collection point in Wadajir village in Garowe district (left) and of the construction of the elevated water tank in Yahlo village in Bosasso district (left).

• In addition to receiving the development budget of the District Basket Fund, all target districts have received their administrative funds in line with the work plan and this allowed them to finalise the DDFs and the AWPBs. • Operation and Maintenance plans are currently being developed for all projects and UNDP is working to ensure that funds are set aside in the district budget to maintain and operate the projects. • The Management Information System (MIS) is up and running in MOI in Somaliland and Puntland and technical support is provided by Terre Solidali in line with agreement and work plan to strengthen financial reporting. All target ministries are now able to provide appropriate financial reports. A checklist for support documentation has been developed by UNDP to further help the target ministries in their financial reporting, and on the job coaching takes places on a regular basis. • The Outcome Evaluation Team has completed the baselines for Somaliland, Puntland and South Central Somalia, and findings have been shared in informal donor meetings and at the quarterly workshops with all partners. This process allowed for revision of the logframe indicators as well as the establishment of outcome indicators for JPLG. • Invitation for Prequalification has been advertised for recruitment of service providers for engagement in South Central. UNDP is looking for a company to carry out capacity development on modules 1-6 including revision to ensure they are adapted to the South Central context, as funds are being asset aside for service delivery should the two proposed target districts be selected. UNDP is also recruiting a service provider for monitoring and evaluation of activities.

Implementation of projects in Puntland was delayed by 3 months due to the fact that the initial calculation of costs were too high from JPLG’s side meaning that all bids were below the 20% lowest acceptable bid. Therefore, UNDP had to recalculate the expected costs of the projects in line with recent information of market prices, lowering the estimation to a more realistic level. Once this was completed, a meeting was held with the target districts and contracts were entered into in March. Due to the fact that the financial management system at the district level in Puntland was not up and running at the time when contracts needed to be signed, UNDP is the contract holder, with MOI and the district council witnessing the contract. As the financial management system at the district level will be in place and operational during the 3 rd quarter of 2010, the DBF for 2010 will follow the same fund flow as in Somaliland, i.e. from UNDP to the district council, based on request from MOI, and the district council will enter into contracts with service providers.

Four video messages on civic rights and responsibilities were successfully recorded and broadcasted twelve times on local TV and radio stations in all the 6 districts in SL..The video messages focused on civil rights and responsibilities, transparency and accountability and were broadcasted through Horn Cable TV (HCTV) which has national reach and the Universal TV station. To ensure community identity and ownership, the video messages includes voices of the citizens who were interviewed on their views of how local government delivers its services and their expectations on the same. Others voices included in the video include an extensive interview with the Director General of the Ministry of Interior- his image and commentary adds a sense of legitimacy and authority, Majors of Burao and Odweyne on the role of the municipal councils in delivering quality services to the citizen and the rights of the citizens to engage and hold the policy makers accountable in relation to provision of quality services. The video also captured the voices of the civil society in relation to civic rights and responsibilities. The video messages also recorded examples of various basic services which are the rights of the citizen such as the medical care, garbage collection, services provided by the police, education etc to help the citizens to visualize the services they are entitled to get from the local government . The messages clearly illustrates that these are the citizen rights and not favours and they need to be respected and provided. The video clips also have captured the voices of the business community and employees of a large detergent factory “Ileys”, to capture their views as well.

A total of four newspapers articles creating awareness and educating the citizens on their rights and responsibilities were publicized through the Jamhuuriya newspaper which has a national level coverage. To ensure that the community members have access to the messages contained in the newspaper, the partner purchased 100 copies of the dailies and had them distributed Odweyne to ensure more people have access to the information.

A total of 216 community members 36 each from the six districts were trained as trainers to enable them reach other community members and stakeholders with civic education. In addition, the TOT developed action plans to advance the civic education to other community members. The trained TOTs received support materials which included DVD, brochures and three different types of posters to enable them to advance and farther the civic education awareness campaigns.

Puntland Th The media campaign on civic education is on -going in all the four targeted districts in PL.The project has successfully printed 4 outdoor billboards (one for each district of Bosaso, Gardo, Garowe and Galkacyo) and are ready for mounting in July 2010. In addition, discussions were held with the respective mayors and agreements reached on the strategic location of where the billboards will be mounted to enhance public education and awareness on the citizens’ rights and responsibilities. The civic education service provider; Somali Development Trust (STD) video recorded several events; which included the validation workshop, PPP (Public Private Partnership workshops and the inauguration and the opening of the new office building of the Ministry of Interior. These videos were aired as way of enhancing accountability and transparency of the districts councils activities and to reinforce the role of community in decision processes including their participation in district planning.

To make the community in general aware of the issues of rights, responsibility and participation, SDT commissioned for telecasting and broadcasting of TV spots, documentary films, radio drama series and radio spots over the local media housed, such as, ETN, Daljir and SBC.

channels: • Printed 1500 copies of the newsletters which were inserted in the ILEYS (local paper) to enhance wide distribution using their distribution outlets. • Produced and broadcasted 3 documentary videos. • Produced and aired/broadcasted 2 radio programs which were broadcasted over the Daljir Radio and Horseed Radio 48 times. • Used drama and skates to educate community members on their rights and responsibilities during the community outreach programs which helped to reach a number of community members who have no access to the print and electronic media messages.

3.8. OUTCOME 2.2. ANNUAL DISTRICT PLANS AND BUDGETS IN UP TO 24 COUNCILS REFLECT COMMUNITY PRIORITIES (By Outcome 2.2./2nd quarter 2010 Agency) UNICEF Somaliland The capacities of the six targeted districts were built which facilitated the development of districts specific budgets and activity plans for the validation workshops. One validation workshop attended by 61 participants was held. The workshop helped to confirm that the projects reflected in the draft DDF were based on the communities’ priorities that they were involved in developing during community consultation process. In addition, participants also had a chance to discuss and agree on the projects that have been selected for implementation this year as well as the selection criteria used to arrive at the projects agreed upon.

The validation workshop was officially opened by one of the District council. Some of the concerns raised during the validation workshop include the need for more time for community consultations to enable the community members to exhaustively deliberate on the priority projects, need to revise the selection criteria of the projects was also a key concern raised and it was recommended that the revised criteria need to be used in future subsequent identification process, the need to use a better method of estimating the number of the populations in the villages as the participants felt that the figures presented were not a true reflection of the population and the need to ensure that validation workshops are held immediately after the community consultations to ensure implementation of the projects in good time.

Puntland The districts mayors together with MOI, successfully organized and facilitated the validation workshops in all the four districts in PL. This is very commendable and a positive indicator towards program ownership and sustainability. In Bossaso districts, the selected priorities were interchanged that necessitated the mayor to organize for another validation workshop through his own resources to consult and seek the communities approval for the endorsement of the new planned activities presented to them. This is a new shift which shows districts councils’ appreciation of the community participation in decision making processes.

ILO Puntland Enterprise surveys were undertaken for Garowe and Bossaso to compliment the local economy assessments carried out in 2009. (Enterprise surveys for Borama and Burao have been carried out under complimentary ILO Somalia Programme work; others are planned for the remaining JPLG target districts in the last quarter of the year). These surveys will provide baseline economic/enterprise information to help inform local councils efforts to identify areas of potential and to improve the enabling environment for businesses. They will provide valuable input towards the formulation and implementation of economic strategies at the district level. The findings and recommendations will be shared with policy makers in partnership with key economic stakeholders. Further facilitated local economy discussion forums will be organized and institutionalized into formal fora with membership from public and private sector whose role will be to identify, prioritize and implement initiatives that support efficient local economic activity.

3 MONITORING AND EVALUATION

The JPLG outcome evaluation system (OES) had finalized the baseline data reports for Somaliland, Puntland and south central Somalia and presented those at the quarterly work planning sessions. Also OES made recommendations on JPLG Output and Outcome indicators based on the baseline data surveys and interviews. These will be incorporated in MIS from the beginning of 2011. It is planned that OES will report on the outcome indicators every 6 months as well as on some of the output indicators and the rest of the output indicators will be monitored by the MoI’s in Puntland, Somalia and South central Somalia (for SC after the possible approval of proposed target districts in Hamarweyne and Adado, following security and conflict assessments). Also South central Somalia will start to report on contracts for JPLG projects but only after the projects have been finalized due to security issues in the area. Below find the updated MIS indicators for Q2 as well as for project contract data. Training data is also in Annex 3 with trainings in Somaliland for Key Line Ministries carried out by UNICEF in Berbera and Borama (where 23% of participants were women), Urban Planning training by UN-Habitat in Sheikh as well as TOT Gender Training in Hargeisa.
