Findings (2)

Different planning capacities for
financing can be obserbed in 33
districts

The total estimated budget to
implement DEPs for 2002-05 is
about 18 billion MK

Funding mechanism is obscure
From Plan to Action

To establish the Strategic
Funding Committee is highly
suggested.

Capacity Building for
strengthening the funding system,
mechanism is required at both
national and district levels

Flexible Funding Approaches
are required.
