| description |
In pursuing a decentralization policy
that sets out to devolve elements of state authority to
municipalities, the Government of Timor-Leste faces a key
challenge: how to combine different types of governance
systems that have legitimacy at local and state levels. In
order to inform this process, this policy note looks at how
communities and local government currently work together to
plan and implement local development initiatives. It
attempts to answer the question, 'what steps might the
government of Timor-Leste take to amplify the voice of
citizens in development planning, and the responsiveness of
the state to those voices?' This note informs current
discussions on community-planning processes,
dispute-resolution and complaints mechanisms within local
development programs, and other important aspects of the
decentralization agenda through a perspective informed by
in-depth, local-level policy analysis. |
