  1. Some thoughts about sustainability of ASALGP Put forward by Centre for Law And Reconstruction in Southern Africa CLARISA as principal project partner

  2. What do we have? • Partnership relationships • Modules, models, guides, other material • Information sharing partnership model • Tested approach to capacity building • Newsletter and web page • An integrated municipal management career advancement program (8.2b) • An ASALGP system of 2 pilot provinces

  3. Facilitate delivery Officials leaders - practitioners Priorities Align with policy MUNICIPALITIES Provincial Departments for Local Government Capacity & learning Partnerships managed Department of Provincial and Local Government LGW SETA SALGA Australia SA L G Partnership Project Team

  4. Core characteristics • Its is a Private Public Partnership • It is consultative and supportive • It is non-profit • It adds value in a practical manner • Etc.

  5. Why sustainability? • Money spent by Australia created value, outputs and products, it should not go to waste • ASALGP provides a sound base on which a new approach to capacity building and information sharing can be developed • By continuing many other municipalities in other provinces could also benefit • Three years only serve to start a process

  6. Whose responsibility ? • The project partners – those who were driving it in Australia and South Africa and who are accountable to the beneficiary departments and municipalities - need to put it on the right road that will take it into a future life…

  7. Option discussed at the PCC’s • The Trust model • Establishing an ASALGP Trust Fund • Appoint a board of trustees from stakeholders • Use donor and other income to proceed the work in the 2 pilot provinces • And role it out into the other provinces …

  8. What are other options? 1 A new holding entity – not for profit - continue the aims & objectives - proceed as a going concern – same process, partners, approach and method of working – the entity must raise the money to fund continued operations and activities…

  9. …or… 2 Link it onto a new parent organization which will take over the program and proceed with the two pilot provinces…

  10. …or… 3 Hand over to the 2 pilot provinces to take it further in the way they deem fit – e.g. with provincial SALGA’s. in a structure suitable to each province

  11. …or… 4 Finding a home for the different components • web page • newsletter • partnership consultancy and advice career development training package • ongoing activities in the provinces in different organisations who take them further

  12. …or… …any other option…

  13. Some considerations… • Administrative capacity • Available funding to take over staff & assets • Budgets for operations and staffing • Time, resources, co-ordination • Commitment in view of own core business • Ability to adopt same approach • Commitment to partnership goals

  14. Sustainability does not • Require a replication of ASALGP – municipalities are – much progress has been made the past few years • Sustainability has to do with making sure that the lessons learnt and the value adding concepts are taken to new hights

  15. How do we move on this to come to a decision before April 2005? A working committee? Who will fund the committee???????

  16. Where do we go from here ?

  17. ?
