The module "Participatory Local Governance" aims at improving the performance of the Pakistani state in terms of service delivery and citizen participation. The module objective is defined as: Service delivery capacities of local authorities in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab regions meet local needs and priorities. The participatory local governance (PLG) programme supports partners in three interrelated areas: - Output 1 supports the improvement of the capacity of state and elected representatives to provide local services, taking into account the needs of vulnerable groups. - Output 2 provides support to the human resource capacity development of local governments for local revenue generation and digital financial management - Output 3 aims to ensure that local authorities take into account citizens' needs and priorities for service delivery through the use of participatory, digital and SDG-oriented decision-making processes. Background: Fundamental deficiencies in Pakistan's public administration contribute to the shortages in local service delivery. There is a political consensus on raising local revenues. However, since there is no historical experience of a correlation between local government revenue raising and public service improvement, the low level of confidence in the performance of public institutions among broad sections of the population means that necessary steps to increase government revenues are being met with great resistance. Pakistan has a very low tax-to-GDP ratio - in fiscal year 2019/20, the ratio of taxes to GDP was 11.4% compared to an OECD average of 34.3%. In this regard, there is untapped potential for revenue generation at the local and provincial levels. There is a political commitment to the digitalization of administration and services. Output 2 aims to improve the human resource capacity of KP province and local governments for local revenue generation and digital financial management. The impact hypothesis is that the improved human resource capacity, which includes the use of a digital financial data information management systems, will lead to an increase in local government revenues in the medium term. The increased financial leeway will be used by local governments to improve and expand local service delivery, thereby benefiting vulnerable groups (module objective). The assumption is that Pakistan's macroeconomic situation will remain stable, allowing for an increase in public revenues. Tasks by the contractor: PLG plans to hire a contractor to provide technical advisory services under Output 2 to partners and to carry out two work packages in close coordination with the project. The services to be tendered out concern the intervention area of strengthening local public revenue generation and administration as one key ingredient of improving local governance. 1: Expert Advice regarding Revenue Mobilisation for Local Governance The work package comprises of expert advice in the area of revenue and good financial governance geared to support the local administration and its reforms in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and Punjab.

Togo is one of the least developed countries. The country's socio-economic situation is precarious despite progress in the following areas: i) poverty reduction (48.2% in 2014 to 37.6% in 2017); ii) improvement of the human rights situation from 2006 (BTI 2022); iii) the reduction in the gender gap according to the global report (105th out of 156 states in 2021, and improvement of 25 points compared to the previous year) with the number of female civil servants representing 19.3% of the workforce; and iv) a 12% increase in the tax revenue forecast between 2022 and 2023 by the Togolese Revenue Office (Office Togolais des Recettes - OTR). In terms of government effectiveness (WGI), Togo has improved from 8.06/100 in 2012 to 25/100 in 2021 to reach the average level for sub-Saharan Africa (26.39/100). Corruption has also decreased slightly according to Transparency International (from 45/100 in 2012 to 43/100 in 2020). The improvement of all these situations requires the necessary reforms to strengthen good governance in public finances and the fight against corruption with a view to economic growth and job creation through public and private investment and digitalization, which is one of the major challenges of the government's 2025 roadmap. In June 2021, a new and particularly ambitious form of cooperation was adopted through the signing of the German-Togolese Partnership for Reform. Since 2018, Togo has joined the 12 countries that have signed up to the "Compact with Africa" initiative, launched under the German presidency of the G20 summit. In this framework, the Togolese government has committed to implementing macroeconomic and policy reforms to strengthen the framework conditions for increased private investment, sustainable economic development, and employment promotion. This objective is reaffirmed in the government's roadmap for Togo 2020-2025. It is within this framework that the project called "Good Financial Governance" (GFG), was set up in July 2022 and is based on three areas of intervention: 1. monitoring the government's reform program; 2. tax policy and risk management of the tax system ; 3. capacity building in public financial control institutions. This project aims to contribute to the promotion and improvement of public finance management about the steering of reforms, the mobilization of own resources, the control of economic efficiency and the conformity of their use. This program is funded by the Federal Ministry for Economic Cooperation and Development (BMZ), and implemented by the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ) GmbH under the supervising of The Ministry of Development Planning and Cooperation (Ministére de la Planification du Development et de la Cooperation -MPDC ).
