Description:
This project is part of Government of Mongolia and UNDP partnership in strengthening democratic governance for the attainment of national MDGs. The project builds on previous experience and on-going initiatives for strengthening national integrity systems. The project strategy rests on the indentified need for a four prong approach to address (a) UNCAC and MDG 9 monitoring and reporting, (b) IAAC functional capacities, (c) sectoral integrity initiatives, and (d) strengthening accountability and transparency in local management. For the implementation of this strategy the project will take a programme approach in the design, planning and execution of deliverables, and work with a range of responsible partners. The project will be implemented under the leadership of the IAAC and CSC for stakeholder coordination and programme coherence. The project will be aligned with on-going ministerial integrity initiatives and other emerging needs including for increased participation of civil society actors in the fight against corruption. The project will seek positive synergies and complementarities with similar initiatives supported by other international development partners.
Expected Outcomes:
- Participatory democracy assessment and MDG9 , using Democratic Governance Indicators (DGIs) institutionalized for improving policy and practice
- Capacity strengthened for compliance with the United Nations Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC)
- Capacity for local governance in rural and urban areas increased
