1As stated in the Annual Report and due to the large number of CSO applicant, UNDP has expanded

the number of grantees from the initial planned 17 to 22 CSO beneficiaries. This has increased the

required budget in 711,926.61, thereby matching the difference for disbursing USD 2,425,687.61 to the22 CSOs currently under contract. The remaining $376,125.96 gap relate to funds that still need to bemobilized for the overall project management.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

The Support to Civic Education Project was launched on 10 November 2006. It is agrant disbursement initiative facilitated by UNDP Angola, with funding received to

date from NORAD, SIDA, UNDP and USAID.

The project aims to empower civic stakeholders expanding democratic participation,particularly among women and other under-represented segments of society, throughcivic education, provision of access to information about civic and human rights, andawareness-raising activities. It also aims at enhancing the technical and managerialcapacity of civil society organizations, as well as at overcoming the lack of resourcesfor implementing democratic participation activities among key stakeholders.

Civil society in Angola is still in the process to consolidate its action, and still needs tostrengthen its capacity to address the challenges that the country faces nowadays. Atthe same time, there has been a lack of coordination among Civil Society

Organizations, as well as a weak synergic approach. Somehow, there is a need tobuild the capacity of the national civil society organizations in terms of projectmanagement, technical support and promotion of a synergic action among them.

In order to respond to this need, the United Nations Development Programme[UNDP] with support of the Government of Angola and International Partners hasestablished a Support to Civic Education [SCE] Unit and currently implements aCivic Education Program. The project consists in disbursing grants for civic educationprojects to Angolan Civil Society Organizations, and to closely monitor theimplementation process with the overall goal of building CSO capacity by means ofan on-the-project learning process.

The 2007 Report presents achievements made up to December 2007, namely

o establishment / expansion of the Civic Education Trust Fund;o launch of a civic education Call for Proposals;o evaluation and selection of incoming project proposals;o contract negotiations with shortlisted CSO partners;o approval of CSO proposals by the Procurement Approval Committee of

UNDP Angola, as well as UNDP New York;o issuing of contracts to 22 Civil Society Organizations as well as the National

Commission for Elections (CNE) to launch civic education projects acrossAngola;

o

establishment of the SCE Unit with monitoring team to support projectmonitoring; as well aso CSO refresher trainings.

I. SUPPORT TO CIVIC EDUCATION PROJECT STRATEGY

The Support to Civic Education Project is a historic initiative launched by UNDPAngola and its donor partners Government of Sweden, Norwegian Embassy, and the

United States Agency for International Development (US.AID), to reach out toAngolas civil society through education programs covering thematic areas such asdemocratic dialogue, institutional capacity development, civic and political rights,and access to information through mass media. By distributing grants of up to USD200,000.-, this initiative will contribute directly to learning-by-doing institutionalcapacity development of CSOs implementing civic education projects.

The project contains the usual phases of project unfoldment, i.e. announcement of arequest for proposals; review and evaluation of the technical and financial feasibilityof incoming project proposals; capacity assessment of prospective partnerorganizations; contract negotiations; contract approval through UNDP procurementcommittees within UNDP Angola and at the UNDP HQ level; and signing of

contracts. Projects will be implemented based on mutually-agreed conceptualframeworks which define goals, objectives and sub-objectives, number of targetbeneficiaries to be reached, as well as definition of success indicators, and means ofverification.

The project implementation is divided up into three phases: phase no. 1 will witnessthe disbursement of 20% of project funds, and performance monitoring over a periodof two months; next, an additional 36.5% of project funds will be disbursed, formonitoring phase 2 project objective achievements to be implemented during thesubsequent 5 months; the same process will be repeated one more time during theremaining 5 months of the 1-year project implementation contract period. CSOs willreceive a final 7% payment once they have submitted their final project report. An

auditor will be invited at mid-term to assess project management.

UNDP has set up a monitoring team that will closely monitor implementation (finance,education and gender adequacy), not just for controlling output delivery, but also forassisting partners implementing activities in the field.

UNDP will seek to locate additional funding in order to make the Support to CivicEducation project a long-term programme initiative beyond 2008.

OUTPUTS:

1.1. Improved Civic Education awareness and access to information increased1.2. CSOs trained in basic project management, civic education and conflict

prevention.1.3. Civic education assistance coordinated.

ACTIVITIESIMPLEMENTED UNDER THE FIRST OUTPUT:(1.1. Improved civic education awareness and access to information increased)

1.1.1. Dissemination of Civic Education Guidelines to partners in Angola

1.1.2. Review and selection of eligible projects

1.1.3. Funding of projects

1.1.4. Monitoring and evaluation

1.1.5. Evaluation

RESULTS:

A Support to Civic Education Request for Proposals was published in theJornal de Angola in January 2007. In addition, a brochure entitled LinhasDirectrizes para Apresentao de Propostas was printed, and distributedamong Civil Society representatives.

In spring 2007, a Technical Committee was established and charged withoverseeing the opening and review of the technical and financial proposalsreceived. The Committee consists of five Civil Society experts, representing(1) the Ministry of Territorial Affairs (MAT); (2) the Committee for NationalElections (CNE); (3) the Angolan NGO Development Workshop (DW); (4)the United Nations Commission for Human Rights in Angola (UNCHO); and

(5) the United Nations Development Program (UNDP). The Technical Committee jointly opened, assessed and prioritized 56 CSO

proposals in accordance with their technical and financial feasibility.2 Between late August and early October 2007, the UNDP Civic Education

Team visited and met with 22 prospective grantees, to conduct contractnegociations, proposal clarifications, and in order to carry out an institutionalcapacity assessment. 22 Project Objective Tables were re-written in such away that UNDP can monitor project performance based on measurableproject output parameters, and in accordance with project milestonedefinitions. 22 project budgets were re-written and re-formatted to facilitatemonitoring of budget expenses in accordance with project milestones.

The Approval Committee for Procurement (ACP) of UNDP NY approved therequest for approval for procurement of 22 CSO services on 19 November2007.

Contracts were signed between 26 November and 18 December 2007. First tranche payments worth USD 485,137.50 were issued in December

2007 and early January 2008. One grant project has been completed, namely the translation of Angolan

Electoral Law into English and French, requested by the Comisso Nacionalde Eleiesl (total value USD 18,239.00.-).

NARRATIVE:

The invitation for civic education proposals was open for 6 months (03 Januaryuntil 30 June 2007). The Technical Committee met to open technical proposals,first on 7 June 2006, and once again on 17 July 2006, in the presence of all fiveTechnical Committee Members. Altogether, 56 proposals have been submitted

(some agencies submitted more than one proposal aiming at different provinces).

A meeting of all five Technical Committee members to appraise the technicalquality of the proposals was held on 2nd August 2007. Using the proposal ratingtable illustrated in the Support to Civic Education Project Proposal Guidelines (p.6), the Committee members prioritized proposals whose technical quality wasdeemed high, and then recommended subsequent opening and review of thefinancial proposals of these prioritized CSOs. The Committee observed, however,that project outputs and success indicators were sometimes poorly formulated,and void of language that would indicate the direct education benefits of civiceducation target groups. It was also observed that the number of direct andindirect beneficiaries claimed to be reached through the proposed projects were

either unrealistically high, or too low, and would have to be re-confirmed. TheCommittee also decided that in the case of one agency submitting more than onequalified proposal, only one proposal should be funded (preferably a proposal in aprovince which lacked qualified proposals overall).

The Committee met again on 16 August 2007 to discuss and evaluate thefinancial proposals of short-listed CSO. Since the Committee felt that manyfinancial proposals required revisions and adjustments, the Committeerecommended that the UNDP Senior Civic Education Expert should meet witheach of the selected CSOs to negotiate budget adjustments, as well as a much-needed reformulation of project outputs and success indicators that wouldfacilitate subsequent monitoring & evaluation.

As far as institutional capacity assessments of prospective grantees isconcerned, the UNDP Support to Civic Education Office carried out aninstitutional capacity assessment, by interviewing CSO representatives using alist of guidance questions. In addition, the Civic Education Project consulted withthe European Commission , who manages a Grant Programme which has fundedseveral CSOs that also happen to be UNDP grant applicants. Hence, proposaldocuments, assessment interviews, and observations of project officers frompartner agencies all contributed to UNDPs capacity assessment of prospectiveCSO partners.

Given the fact that more proposals met the funding eligibility criteria than therewas funding available through the Civic Education Trust Fund, UNDP Angolahas offered to add approximately USD 712000.- to the Trust Fund. The exact


9/23

9

final amount will depend on whether all CSOs will accept and complete theirprojects in accordance with their signed contracts.

The Senior Civic Education Expert met with the Contract Procurement ApprovalCommittee [CAP] on 9 October 2007, to request CAPs assistance in presentingthe request for contract approval to UNDP New York (ACP). CAP submitted thisrequest to New York on 18 October 2007.3 New York approved the CAP requeston 19 November 2007.

UNDP Angola subsequently invited grantee representatives for a contract signingceremony which took place on 26 November 2007. 4 10 Partner Agenciesparticipated at the ceremony. The remaining partners signed their contracts inDecember 2007.

Payment disbursements of the first tranche (20% of project budget totals) wereinitiated in late December 2007.

Project Monitoring and Evaluation Activities have thus far not been conductedsince project implementation is expected to begin in early January 2007. Thisnotwithstanding, site visits to different prospective partner agencies facilitatedpre-project capacity assessments, and the determination of projectimplementation workplans that are going to form the contractual basis for projectmonitoring in 2008.

Two formal (August and November 2007), and one informal donor meeting(October 2007) were held to inform donors about the status of the project.

ACTIVITIESIMPLEMENTED UNDER THE SECOND OUTPUT:

(1.2. CSOs trained in basic project management, civic education and conflictprevention)

1.2.1. Mapping and assess Civic Educations CSO capacity

1.2.2. Conduct training needs assessment with a focus on project management,civic education, conflict prevention

1.2.3. Adapt and/or develop appropriate training materials and tools concerning thecivic education

UNDP invited Mr. Mateus Manuel Joo - a delegate of the Ministry of

Territorial Administration - as well as Mr. Antonio L. Kiala - the President ofFONGA - to attend a threeday seminar on evidence-based policy monitoringin Maputo, Mozambique (28-30 November 2007). This workshop wasfinanced and facilitated by the UNDP South Africa Bureau.

Between late August and early October 2007, UNDP Civic Education Staffvisited or met with representatives of all 22 Civic Education partners agenciespolish proposal output formulations, and to negotiate project budgets. It wasfound that goals and objectives formulation skills, as well as budgeting skillswere fairly weak. Working with Facilitating Partner Agency representatives onthese issues on one-on-one basis also served as a organizational capacityassessment-/ capacity development exercise, and was as such recognizedand appreciated by partner agency representatives.

NARRATIVE:

When the UNDP Support to Civic Education started meeting and visiting withprospective CSO partners, it became evident that most proposed projects sought tolaunch training and community learning encounter activities through communityactivists, in order facilitate civic education modules in the areas of civic, electoral andhuman rights. It therefore made sense for UNDP to offer in the weeks precedingdisbursement of project grants training workshops that would give participants theopportunity to reflect about principles of adult education, and to engage in thepreparation of civic education action plans that would help jump-start project

operations in the provinces.

Although questionnaires have been prepared and tested to assess civic educationcapacity development needs of Angolan Civil Society Organizations, the bestcapacity assessment opportunities thus far have proven to be meetings and fieldvisits, joint planning sessions, and trainings. These interactions clearly illustratestrong need for capacity development support in the following areas: IT skills (MSWord, Excel), planning, budgeting, proposal design (especially formulation ofmeasurable outputs and success indicators), monitoring & evaluation, supervision, aswell as curriculum development, adult pedagogy, participatory learning, and trainingdesign for experiential learning.

Training Materials were developed in support of the workshops facilitated by UNDP,or invited consultants. In addition, UNDP has started developing monitoring andevaluation forms which can be used by Facilitating Partner agencies to monitor (andat the same time document) their own project implementation. A consultant from DWwas invited to share DWs experience of facilitating community learning encounterson Civic and Human Rights directed to citizens of rural communities and urbanmarginalized neighbourhoods. Development of pedagogical materials on electoral

law were provided by CNE with PNUD financing, so as to comply with Government ofAngola Law which insists that only official materials should be used when engagingin electoral law education activities.

ACTIVITIESIMPLEMENTED UNDER THE SECOND OUTPUT:(1.3. CSOs trained in basic project management, civic education and conflict

prevention)

1.3.1. Recruitment of Staff Unit

1.3.2. Establish and equip the coordination unit work space

1.3.3. Contract of an external audit assessment

1.3.4. Establishment of an M&E system

1.3.5. Coordination of key civic education stakeholders

RESULTS:

An international Senior Civic Education Expert was recruited on 18 June2006. A driver was recruited on 29th of August 2007; the M&E / DataManagement Assistant was recruited on 01 September 2007; a M&E /

Finance Assistant was recruited on 15 October 2007. The M&E / GenderAssistant was recruited on 03 December 2007. All staff received on-the-jobtraining through the Senior Civic Education Expert.

A Support to Civic Education Office was established in the Mezanine of theUNBuilding (between the ground floor and first floor), in August 2007. Itcontains space for 5 staff, and presents a very good set-up for team work,receiving visitors, and joint staff planning. Desks, chairs, three desktops, onelaptop, and two laser printers were purchased, as well as two book shelves, asmall round conference table with six chairs, as well as white boards, and awater dispenser.

The project also purchased a Toyoto Landcruiser to be able to carry out fieldmission- and monitoring assignments across Angola.

The establishment of a monitoring system was partly achieved by requestingfrom facilitating partner agencies to structure their objective tables and


12/23

12

budgets in accordance with measurable milestone achievements. Theseproject output tables are now part of the project contract and will be used toguide monitoring activities and milestone reports about the projectsimplemented in the field.

Contracting of an external auditor will take place in 2008. Further coordination meetings of key civic education stakeholders will also

take place in 2008, once project implementation is under way

III. CHALLENGES AHEAD

For 2008, the Support to Civic Education Project will have to brace for the followingchallenges:

1. Securing Development Partners Support for New Project Initiatives in 2008

UNDP decided to award 100% of the funds available in the Civic EducationTrust Fund given the fact that parliamentary and presidential elections arescheduled to take place between 2008 and 2009. In order to keep themomentum of Civil Society Organizations engaging in civic educationactivities going, it will be necessary to continue to fund Civil SocietyOrganization activities beyond the duration of the current project. The firstchallenge to be faced by UNDP is therefore to engage more developmentpartners to support new and follow-up initiatives.

The second challenge consists in developing a Civil Society empowermentstrategy that transcends the current civic education funding approach used

through the Civic Education Trust Fund. One strategy currently availablemight be the launching of a Public Sector Capacity Development (CD)Initiative that includes CD of SCO to enable Civil Society Organizations to useparticipatory research methodologies for assessing Millennium DevelopmentGoal [MDG] community needs, and subsequently engaging in evidence-based monitoring of MDG achievements and public expenditure towards propoor in Angola. This information could be shared with the National Institute ofStatistics under the Ministry of Planning, and provide the basis for a socialdata collection collaborative work relationship between the Government ofAngola and Angolan CSOs (as it is being the case in some other Africancountries). A similar strategy is currently piloted in Tanzania, Botswana and

Mozambique, and could be easily replicated in Angola.

Information about this pilot effort was shared at the afore-mentioned CivilSociety Evidence-Based Policy Monitoring workshop in Mozambique, atwhich a member of the Ministry of Territorial Administration (MAT) as well asthe President of FONGA participated. UNDP is considering options toembrace similar model here in Angola, ideally in collaboration with theGovernment of Angola as well as FONGA. Should for any reason thisinitiative not proceed as planned initiative (targeting the public sector as awhole and CSO capacity as an accountability mechanism), the data collectiontraining for CSOs could still take place and provide the basis for new CSOproject proposals and project implementation follow-up. This time, the overall

approach would consist in building CSO capacity development through an


13/23

13

action-reflection-action and participatory inquiry approach, as the basis forsubsequent MDG-oriented project implementation.

2. Project Implementation Performance of CSO Partner Agencies

To support and ensure satisfactory project implementation performance ofCSO partners, it will be necessary to enact an effective communication andsupervision scrutiny, and to provide refresher training services at an ongoingbasis. Both means are costly, however, and funds available to the Support toCivic Education Project (only USD 45000.- for Refresher Trainings; and onlyUSD 50,000.- for M&E) are hardly enough to regularly monitor 22 CSOsimplementing projects in 18 provinces over a period of 12 months; or toprovide refresher trainings. Additional funding will have to be secured, eitherby attracting new contributions, or by re-allocating money from other projectbudget lines.

For 2008, we would like to facilitate regular get-togethers of CSOrepresentatives to share lessons-learned as a result of their projectimplementation experiences (this is an explicit request of CSO partneragencies); a workshop about legal requirements for CSOs to register andfunction in accordance with Angolan law; a workshop on project design andproposal writing; a workshop on conflict resolution and conflict prevention;and workshops on report writing. To implement these trainings, another50,000 USD would be needed to run trainings for 2 staff members of each ofthe 22 CSO partner agencies.

3. Politicization of Civic Education Initiatives

Since 2008 is an election year, there is a strong probability that CSO projectimplementers might feel inclined (or might be persuaded by politicizedelements of society) to use civic education activities as a means to engage inparty-specific campaigns, or proselytism, or finger-pointing tactics. UNDPhas to monitor projects carefully, and ensure that UNDP moneys are notdiverted for party-specific agendas.

IV. LESSONS LEARNED

Having completed the RFP, project proposal bid opening and evaluation processes,as well as submission of request for procurement approvals to CAP and ACP, theUNDP Support to Civic Education project team is now able to reflect on this processand recommend the following improvements for future efforts to implement similarprocesses.

1. Linhas Directrizes for CSOs should be developed in consultation with theprocurement officer as well as ACP in New York.

2. They must be disseminated more effectively through Umbrella Systems anddonor contacts so as to reach all CSOs in all provinces.

3. The projects solicited must be prepared in such a way that they can meetexpectations outlined in the UNDP Professional Service Contract template. They

must require project outputs in accordance with milestones (20%, 36.5%, 36.5%,7%).


14/23

14

4. It would be advisable to refrain from soliciting a fully-fledged project proposal fromCSOs, because some CSOs although holding the promise of being effective andefficient project implementers in the field do lack the capacity to presentproposals of satisfactory quality. Instead UNDP should request concept papersof no more than five or six pages, which can be easily evaluated in regard ofvision, creativity, ingenuity, number of direct beneficiaries, and measurableproject outputs. The CSOs with the best concept papers could then be invited fora one-week seminar where they are provided with technical assistance todevelop full-fledged project proposals. Most importantly, proposal writers need todominate the skill of formulating s.m.a.r.t. (i.e. specific, mesurable, achievable,relevant and time-bound) project objectives, and to realistically define the numberof direct project beneficiaries. Financial parameters for salary pay or costs ofequipment could also be communicated at such a workshop event, and budgetsthat reflect expenses per project milestone could be developed also in a jointeffort.

5. The proposal evaluation criteria should be simplified. In the crteria section ofthe linhas directrizes only one (1) crteria per row should be tested, so as to

facilitate the work of the proposal evaluation panel member.6. The RFP should be open for no more than two months. A lower number ofapplicants would facilitate the work of the Technical Committee evaluating theproposals. This notwithstanding, various RFPs could be announced throughoutthe year.

7. Grantees must be requested early on to provide banking information such asIBAN, SWIFT-Code, as well as bank details of their Banks Intermediary (orCorrespondent) Bank in the US (Bank Name, SWIFT and Bank Account). It ispreferable to arrange for electronic transfers from abroad, than executing in-country fund transfers, since eventual complications can be resolved morespeedily. Simply requesting proof of a bank account is not enough, and it is atime-consuming process to request and check accuracy of IBANs and

correspondent bank contact and account details.
