The project seeks to establish a results-oriented governance model in selected municipalities in northern Mozambique by strengthening coordination and joint action between local and national actors, with the aim of improving municipal service delivery and fostering a more enabling environment for local economic development. To this end, the project will allocate resources to selected municipalities to pilot a governance approach focused on long-term municipal economic development objectives. This approach will promote local economic development based on municipalities’ strategic plans, as well as on needs and priorities identified in collaboration with local stakeholders, including the private sector and civil society.
