Situational Analysis
Page 3 of 3

The PD considers that the empowerment of individuals can increase their commitment to action, build partner staff capacity and provide organisational guidance and strategic planning to improve programme practices. A series of reflection workshops with partner organisations, especially about values internalisation and fund-raising, increased the competence in institutional and programme management of most of them.

However, DPA partner organisations need ongoing and sustained support beyond funding to enable them to realise and apply organisational values, development approaches and improved programme practices. Even with frequent capacity building, there is a need for close and ongoing monitoring to ensure the application of what is learned. Practical tools such as capacity building plans and capacity assessment systems are the basis for monitoring progress and suggesting alternative actions.

DPA partner organisations need not only practical tools to improve their work, but also a focus on networking, cooperation and collaboration with stakeholders to achieve their missions and improve the living standards of the poor and marginalised.

The PD continues to address the funding situation of each partner, encouraging them to access other funding sources in order to free them from dependency on a single donor, to use funds transparently and to ensure that community revolving funds are placed in and managed by the community.

Community-based organisations formed in DPA's target areas are presently too young to take over full responsibility for programme management. Their capacity and institutional development are still limited and need support from larger organisations or funding agencies for capacity building. Similarly, other small CNGOs have emerged at the grass roots and are seeking capacity-building support from funding agencies.

The prospective for the PD in 2006–08 is to work with and through partner CNGOs and CBOs to strengthen their capacity to contribute to development in the target areas. The PD will also facilitate partner CNGOs and CBOs adopting CO and RB approaches.

As well, the selection of new partners will provide options for expanding PD's work by focusing on small and medium-sized CNGOs that funding agencies can not reach and which are not able to access funding agencies, especially funding agencies abroad.

The PD will continue to collaborate closely with the Integrated Community Development Department in developing transitional phases for one commune of the Ratanakkiri programme to form a CBO, and with the Development Education and Advocacy Unit to respond more effectively to issues affecting the lives of villagers in the target communities of CNGO partners.
