EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This quarterly progress report covers the activities of the USAID-funded Civil Society and Democracy Strengthening (CSDS) project from July 1, 2005 through September 30, 2006. During the reporting period, USAID extended the project end-date until January 30, 2007 without raising the total value of the contract. At the same time, USAID also rescinded its April 2006 “Notice of Intent to Suspend/Stop Work.”. This quarterly report is modeled on CSDS’s draft work plan for the extension period, submitted to USAID in September 2006.1

With the “Notice of Intent” rescinded and the no-cost extension issued, CSDS was able to restart technical activities during the quarter. Most importantly for Palestinian civil society, the project was able to issue grants for the first time since the January 2006 elections for the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC). In close coordination with USAID, the project team and its partner civil society organizations (CSOs) developed 16 grant proposals—13 for fixed-obligation grants (FOGs) and three for simplified grants—in late July and August. Of these, USAID approved and CSDS issued 11 FOGs and two simplified grants at the end of the quarter. These grants are valued at a total of approximately $342,000. The four grants pending USAID approval are valued at approximately $134,000. With the new awards, CSDS has issued a total of 429 grants valued at approximately $17.1 million over the life of the project.

The 13 grants awarded during the quarter are designed to strengthen the role of Palestinian CSOs in public discourse and efforts to create a more accountable and transparent government. The grants are also designed to encourage coalition building and help CSO partners expand their constituent bases. As such, the grants address key issues and challenges identified by Palestinian CSO leaders after the legislative elections. The grants are also designed to build a base for future CSO and donor-funded initiatives.

For example, five CSOs will conduct democracy and governance after-school programs in Gaza. The entire program will reach between 900 and 1,000 children and their families, most from highly marginalized areas of the Gaza Strip, including refugee camps and rural areas. As designed, the program will provide a needed service, while also delivering valuable content related to the rule of law and other major public issues. At the same time, it is designed to strengthen grassroots connections and support for democratically oriented CSOs.

In a West Bank initiative, four CSOs are working to strengthen grassroots women’s cooperatives and clubs, and to help them become more involved in public discourse and public policy at a local level. Again, the effort is designed to create a base for future activities that engage this important, grassroots segment of civil society. In another initiative, a partner CSO will start a youth network for democracy in villages near Ramallah in the West Bank, the pilot stage of an initiative that the CSO hopes will develop into a national network of youths dedicated to promoting democracy and service to the community.

At the end of the reporting period, additional grant-making activities were being discussed with USAID. The exact amount of funds allocated for grants under the no-cost extension will be determined by the outcome of budget discussions between USAID and Chemonics

1 The September 2006 version of the work plan was produced to account for changes in USAID priorities and a new USAID strategy for the West Bank/Gaza mission. It was developed with significant input from USAID. The project submitted an earlier draft of the work plan in February 2006. At that point, USAID told CSDS to hold off on finalizing the plan until USAID and US Government policy was clarified, and until the “Notice of Intention to Suspend/Stop Work” was lifted.

International, the prime contractor on the CSDS project.2 We hope to conclude these discussions and a related contract modification early in the fourth quarter.

In addition to restarting the grant program, the project prepared to conduct one remaining large study and two smaller studies during the final months of the project. At the end of the reporting period, we agreed tentatively with USAID to focus the large study on the role of Palestinian civil society in preventing a further decline in internal peace and rule of law. The subjects of the two smaller studies were still being discussed with USAID as of writing of this report.

Finally, CSDS started planning close-out activities during the quarter, including a final conference and report, and the overall administrative and financial closeout of this six-year, $34-million project. A complex and varied range of closeout activities will become an increasingly central part of our work during the fourth quarter.

2 While USAID modified the CSDS contract to extend the end-date to January 30, 2007, it did not modify the project’s budget, in particular the division of funds between the two contract line item numbers (CLINs). USAID told the project that a corresponding budget modification would be forthcoming early in the fourth quarter. Chemonics International submitted a proposed budget for the realignment in late July 2006, followed by a revised realignment request in early September.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

SECTION I

Technical Achievements

A. Restarting Support to Palestinian Civil Society

In close partnership with USAID, CSDS restarted technical activities during the third quarter. Most importantly, we worked with USAID and partner CSOs to issue our first round of grants since the January 2006 elections for the Palestinian Legislative Council (PLC). Described later in this section, the grants are designed to strengthen the role of Palestinian CSOs in public discourse and efforts to create a more accountable and transparent government. The grants are also designed to encourage coalition building and to help CSO partners expand their constituent bases. As such, the grants address key issues and challenges identified by civil society leaders after the legislative elections and build a base for future CSO and donor-funded initiatives.3

In addition to launching the grants program, CSDS also prepared to conduct the project’s remaining technical activities. In initial agreements with USAID and in accordance with the proposal for the no-cost extension (dated July 2006), we plan to conduct one large study and two smaller studies, convene a final conference, and write a final report summarizing the activities and lessons learned over the course of this six-year, $34 million project. This section of our quarterly report summarizes our technical activities during the reporting period in line with the extension proposal and draft work plan for the no-cost extension period submitted in September 2006. The next section summarizes financial and administrative activities.

B. Task 1: Supporting Civil Society Reform Initiatives

Under the no-cost extension, CSDS’s primary mode of supporting civil society is grant- making. To prepare to restart the CSDS grant program, the project’s team conducted a series of consultative meetings with its partners throughout the West Bank and Gaza Strip during July. In consultation with USAID, we also reviewed and determined that three of the 11 simplified grants originally approved by the CSDS Grants Committee in February 2006 were still viable in the current timeframe and political environment.

After the meetings with partners, we asked CSOs to submit brief concept papers for fixed- obligation grants (FOGs). Under CSDS’s current USAID-approved grants manuals, FOGs can have maximum values of $25,000 with durations of up to 3 months. In total, we reviewed more than 20 grant concepts during the first two weeks of August.4 Grants in both the West Bank and Gaza Strip are outlined separately below.

3 See CSDS’s March 2006 report on opportunities and challenges facing Palestinian civil society. Participants in roundtables and one-on-one meetings almost unanimously identified building the grassroots constituent bases of moderate, democratically oriented CSOs and strengthening networks and coalitions as key challenges moving forward after the elections. These findings were confirmed in meetings conducted with CSDS partners in July and August.

4 In accordance with US government regulations, CSDS’s USAID-approved manuals do not require a formal solicitation process for the issuance of FOGs. Nevertheless, the request for concept papers, as well as a competitive process for selecting grantee partners for the Gaza democracy and governance after-school program, created a competitive process for the issuance of new grants.

In close consultation with USAID and based on the concept papers in the West Bank, the project team developed FOGs with eight CSOs. The eight grants are:

• An initiative that includes grants to five different CSOs to jointly increase the capacity, visibility, and level of coordination between grassroots women’s organizations and cooperatives in the West Bank. After receiving USAID approval, all but one of these grants started in the last week of the quarter. Al Hares for Media and Studies, Bani Naim Charitable Society, Juhoud for Community and Rural Development, Ta’oun for Conflict Resolution, and Camp Women’s Handicraft Cooperative are participating in the program. As of writing of this report, issuance of the grant to Qalandia was pending receipt of renewed vetting results and final approval from USAID.

• An initiative to pilot civil peace committees in 10 villages in the West Bank and to establish a committee of CSO leaders to advocate on civic peace and rule of law issues at the national level. As of writing this report, issuance of this grant to CSDS partner the Civic Forum Institute (CFI) was pending receipt of renewed vetting results and final approval from USAID.

• Another pilot initiative to start creating a network of youths concerned with democracy and governance at the village level, and connecting these groups such that they will be able to take collective action. This grant to partner Our Rights was issued in the last week of September after we received final approval and vetting results from USAID.

• A project to create an index to measure the performance of the Palestinian Legislative Council, conducted with technical assistance from the USAID-funded Legislative Process Strengthening project, Bayan. We issued this grant to Filastiniyat, a new partner CSO, in the last week of September after receiving final approval from USAID. Bayan provided assistance throughout the grant development process and will provide expert assistance during implementation.

In the Gaza Strip, CSO partners recommended that new projects should provide both services and democracy and governance content to participants. Throughout the Palestinian territories, conditions steadily deteriorated between February and August 2006, especially in the Gaza Strip. With the government unable to pay salaries and limited international assistance, family incomes declined and unemployment rose. Internal disorder and violence also increased, and stepped up incursions and the destruction of infrastructure, including a major power- generating facility, complicating life in the Gaza Strip and causing most children and youth to miss their usual summer academic enrichment and social activities.

As a result of the deteriorating conditions, CSDS and its partners decided to launch a combined grant initiative to address the needs of hard-hit families and accomplish democracy and governance objectives: democracy and governance after-school programs. From more than 15 applications from interested CSO, the project selected six partners to collectively develop proposals and implement the program. Each of the six CSOs will conduct three after- school programs. With approximately 60 students aged 12 to 15 in each program, the whole initiative will reach approximately 1,000 youths and their families. The programs will provide the students with help with their homework, social and recreational activities, and two democracy and governance “corners.”

TECHNICAL ACHIEVEMENTS: THIRD QUARTER 2006 I-2

The first democracy and governance “corner” will allow students to learn about and discuss key issues facing civil society, including rising levels of violence and the misuse of weapons. To strengthen this corner, the USAID-funded Arkan project will train trainers and help implement five rule-of-law modules. The modules are designed to teach pre- and early teenagers basic rule of law concepts and to increase their respect for the rule of law and peaceful, democratic methods of resolving disputes. Arkan will monitor implementation of the program, allowing them to later refine and strengthen the modules and trainers’ manual.

As noted at the start of this section, we also determined that three of the 11 simplified grants developed in the fourth quarter of 2005 and approved by the CSDS Grants Committee in February 2006 were still viable and valuable in the current environment and under new US government and USAID regulations. These grants were reworked to fit within a 3.5-month timeframe, shorter than their original timeframe of 5.5 months, in order to account for the remaining life of the project and allow time for proper project closeout. The three grants are:

• Al-Mawrid Teacher Development Center. Al-Mawrid will work with UNRWA schools and the UNRWA administration to help institutionalize student body elections in UNRWA junior high schools in the West Bank, continuing an effort started under previous grants from 2004-2005. With a value of approximately $51,000, this grant was approved by USAID and signed in the last week of September.

• Palestinian Center for Democracy and Conflict Resolution/Gaza (PCDCR). The PCDCR will work to develop a coalition of grassroots organizations to work together to reduce the level of violence against women and promote women’s rights in the Gaza Strip. Under the grant, the PCDCR will advocate for the creation of a shelter for battered women in the Gaza Strip (no such shelter currently exists), as far as such advocacy efforts are allowed under the current contact rules. With a value of approximately $28,600, this grant was approved by USAID and signed at the end of September.

• Association of Women’s Committee for Social Work (AWCSW). AWCSW originally proposed conducting a training program for women council members in the Salfeet Governorate. This program was recently funded by the Norwegian government. Instead, they have suggested conducting the program in villages between Ramallah and Jerusalem. The estimated value of the revised grant is $59,000. As of writing of this report, the viability of this grant was being discussed with USAID. It is possible that programmatic, timing, and budgetary constraints will prevent issuance of this grant. A final determination on its status will be made early in the fourth quarter.

The project’s capacity to award additional grants will be contingent on the final value of CLIN 2 in the approved budget for the contract modification, as well as timing constraints as the end of the project approaches. As has been discussed with USAID, the window for issuing new grants is rapidly coming to an end, as all grants must close by the end of December or beginning of January to allow for close-out by our current end-date on January 30, 2007.

TECHNICAL ACHIEVEMENTS: THIRD QUARTER 2006 I-3

C. Task 2: Analyzing Civil Society Support and Impact

In CSDS’s July 2006 proposal for a no-cost extension, it proposes conducting one large and two small studies. These studies will be designed to generate debate in the CSO and donor communities, providing analysis, and introduce new project ideas into the CSO community. During August and September, CSDS developed and discussed a range of different topics for all three studies with USAID.

Depending on the resolution of the final budget negotiations and content of the contract modification for the no-cost extension, we have agreed with USAID that the major study will concentrate on the role of civil society in preventing a further decline in internal peace and rule of law. We will submit a scope of work (SOW) for this study early in the fourth quarter and hope to execute the study in November and December.

As of writing this report, the viability and topics for the two smaller studies were still being discussed with USAID.

A previous impact assessment of CSDS’s election-related efforts from December 2004 through January 2006 was pending approval as of writing of this report. It was submitted to USAID in May 2006. The results are summarized in our previous quarterly reports.

C3. Conduct Final Conference and Produce Final Report

With the current project end-date in January 2007, we plan to conduct the final conference in the third week of December while the entire team is still working on the project (the week before Christmas). If USAID chooses to extend the end-date into February 2007, we will most likely re-schedule the conference for mid-January.

During the third quarter, CSDS started a series of activities that will contribute to the final report. We held the first of several internal lessons learned workshops and also collected and discussed some or our most successful projects during the September 2006 team retreat. Also during September, we also submitted an SOW for a consultant to help write the text of the final report. As of writing of this report, the SOW ad consultant were pending approval from USAID.

TECHNICAL ACHIEVEMENTS: THIRD QUARTER 2006 I-4

SECTION II

Project Management and Staffing

A. Management and Staffing

Our management and staff remained substantially the same throughout the reporting period, with the exception of one technical staff member in Gaza who left to pursue Ph.D. studies in the US. In addition, CARE International, Chemonics, and USAID agreed that CSDS Gaza Office Director would begin splitting his time between the CSDS project and CARE’s EMAP III project, where he also serves as the Gaza Office director as of October 1. While the arrangement is not ideal, it was made for the mutual benefit of both projects and in light of the difficulty in finding highly qualified senior staff members in the Gaza Strip.

A2. Home-Office Support

Chemonics provided consistent back-stop support to the project throughout the reporting period led by a three-person project management unit (PMU). The CSDS PMU will be led by project director Jennifer Stewart, and supported by CSDS’s current project manager, Amy Lawrence, who retains primary responsibility for monthly financial reporting, as well as recruitment and fielding of short-term consultants. Kristen Scott, a project associate, provides day-to-day administrative support.

Ms. Stewart conducted an oversight visit during the quarter. Her visit coincided with USAID’s request for a proposal to extend the project on a no-cost basis. Her assistance was invaluable in preparing the technical proposal. Ms. Lawrence prepared the financial proposal for the extension.

A3. Short-Term Technical Expertise

Chemonics Senior Security Director Ray Baysden conducted a field visit to evaluate the project’s ability to successfully address developments in the security field during July. Due to recent internal unrest in West Bank and the Gaza Strip, Mr. Baysden’s trip was considered timely and critical to ensure that the project was taking necessary measures to ensure the security of its staff and activities. In addition to the evaluation of the project offices, expatriate homes, and providing recommendations, Mr. Baysden led workshops for project team members on personal and project security. Mr. Baysden’s assignment was funded jointly by the CSDS and Arkan projects, both of which are led by Chemonics.

In the last month of the third quarter, the Chemonics PMU started to collect resumes and assess the availability of a range of consultants who could become available on short notice to conduct the large study, our last major assignment using expatriate expertise. When the scope of work is finalized early in the fourth quarter, Chemonics will propose a highly qualified consultant to undertake the assignment for approval by USAID.

B. Grants Management and Compliance

As described in Section I, CSDS issued 13 grants valued at approximately $342,000 in the last week of September. In addition to these grants, four more grants were pending with USAID for final approval and/or re-vetting at the end of reporting period. These remaining

four grants have a combined value of approximately $134,000, including one simplified grant valued at approximately $59,000. The final value of grants awarded under the no-cost extension will be determined by USAID and CSDS early in the fourth quarter depending on the outcome of discussions about the budget modification.

The new awards bring the total number of grants issued by CSDS over the life of the project to 429 grants valued at approximately $17.1 million.

With the resumption of grant-making, the project’s finance team also returned to conducting pre-award assessments and spot-checks related to the grants. In the West Bank, we conducted two pre-award assessments, one of a new grantee and the other of a previous grantee that has recently established an office in the West Bank. We did not conduct pre-award assessments in the Gaza Strip, as we do not have new Gaza partners in this round of grants. In both the West Bank and Gaza Strip, we will conduct at least one spot-check on each CSO in the current round of grants; in some cases, we will conduct more.

C. Audit Program

CSDS initiated an eighth and final round of audits in accordance with its contract and US Government regulations. Audits are mandated for all CSOs that receive grants valued at more than $100,000 during a particular calendar year. At the end of the quarter, we issued a request for quotations for seven audits, all of which will be executed during the fourth quarter. Audit firms were prequalified under an indefinite quantity contract (IQC) issued previously.

D. Project Communications and IT Systems

CSDS continued to maintain its IT and communications systems during the quarter. The project’s personal computers and network have become difficult to manage because of old equipment and aging servers. While we have been very conscientious in our maintenance regime, the servers and most of the personal computers on the project are more than five years old, at the far end of the normal life for IT equipment. Budgetary constraints as the end of the project approaches makes upgrading and replacing key pieces of equipment prohibitively expensive and not cost-effective. CSDS’s IT manager Emad Al-Masri and IT subcontractor Asal Technologies deserve a great deal of credit for keeping the project’s systems running.

In the fourth quarter, we will move our email and database systems to external servers in the US in order to reduce the risk of server failures and related expenses that fixing such a failure would require. The move will also provide us with more robust anti-virus and anti-junk-mail capabilities. In addition, the change will save on monthly telecommunications charges as we convert from ISDN to cheaper ADSL lines in our offices. External users and partners will not detect a difference in the project’s email and database systems.

E. USAID Reporting

Throughout the quarter, we delivered our weekly update every Thursday to USAID, Chemonics, and our subcontractors. With a resumption in technical activities, the weekly once again includes updates on grantee activities, as well as listings of future events. With the resumption of project activities, we will also start doing success stories again in the fourth quarter.

PROJECT MANAGEMENT AND STAFFING: THIRD QUARTER 2006 II-2

The project’s quarterly progress report for the second quarter of 2006 was delivered on July 13, two days prior to the USAID-mandated due date of July 15. USAID approval of the report is still pending.

F. Project Closeout

The project started preparations for closeout during the quarter by preparing a detailed action plan for the entire staff, in the US and in the field. We will begin implementing the plan early in the fourth quarter. The closeout process will be a complex process requiring the effort of the entire team. That said, we already have made a great deal of progress during the suspension of technical activities during the second and early in the third quarter. During that period, we completed and boxed all files for closed grants, as well as administrative and financial files for years that have already been audited.

G. Project Retreat

With assistance from USAID in securing permits for Gaza-based team members, CSDS was able to conduct its first all-staff retreat in two years. This was the first time in two years that the entire team was able to work together face-to-face in one location. The retreat allowed the team to plan for the extension period, as well as to review some of their achievements over the last six years. USAID representatives attended the last day of the retreat.
