This paper highlights the capacity
enhancement support provided under the World Bank-financed
Pakistan Improvement of Financial Reporting and Auditing
(PIFRA) project and six lessons learned to be considered in
designing similar projects: (a) address capacity constraints
at every level, that is, individual, organizational, and
institutional, (b) avoid addressing an entire large country
in one project, (c) avoid introducing state-of-the art
technology in an environment of largely unskilled
professionals, (d) avoid too many project components, (e)
ensure ownership and commitment by the project agency, and
(f) ensure collaboration among donors. |
