Short description

To address prevailing regional and local development challenges related to the decentralisation process in Georgia, UNDP implements – in partnership with the Ministry for Regional Development and Infrastructure (MRDI) – the project Fostering Regional and Local Development (RLD) in Georgia.The project was originally planned to be active in four (out of nine) regions of Georgia: Kvemo Kartli, Samegrelo-Zemo Svaneti, Guria and Racha-Lechkhumi-Kvemo Svaneti. Later, the two regions Imereti and Mtskheta-Mtianeti have been added on a specific request from the government.The RLD project goal is to improve living standards of citizens through promoting decentralization, advancing sustainable and participatory local and regional development and strengthening capacities of respective local, regional and national institutions.The related goal level indicators are:? Increased household incomes;? Widened engagement of citizens in local self-government;? Enhanced satisfaction with local service delivery.During 2013, project implementation has been affected by the policy reform in the country, in particular the ongoing LSG reform and the related political discussions. The reform took longer time and required more complex preparations than originally envisaged. The changes initiated by the LSG policy reform now require an adjustment and recalibration of project activities to the new situation.To this end, UNDP has mandated an independent consultant to review project implementation to date, taking a full account of the project implementation context, identify strengths and weaknesses and provide forward looking recommendations for the forthcoming implementation cycle. The consultant was also to facilitate a common understanding of the project among its key stakeholders. Finally, the consultant was to support the project team by providing strategic guidance and advice to the implementation process.
