Making Technical Cooperation More Effective
Author: Reforming Technical Cooperation
Author: Jeanne Frances I. IlloPublisher:
ISBN:
Category : International cooperation
Languages : en
Pages : 176
Book Description
The present volume analyzes the norms, structures and presences of technical cooperation in the Philippines, in the light of the reforms introduced by the Development Assistance Committee of the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development in the mid-1990's. It explores how the development aid and the technical cooperation agenda of bilateral and multilateral aid agencies have strived to respond to the recurrent issues of poverty and social and economic inequities, slow growth and corruption in government through programs and projects not only of the national government but also of non-government organizations and local governments. It shows how in many funding agencies, governance is a recurrent theme. It investigates how technical cooperation, as it has been done in the Philippines and in two particular areas (public sector reform and agriculture), has supported or undermined the capacity development goals of technical cooperation"--P.

Reforming Local Government
Author: Joseph DrewPublisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 9811565031
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 168
Book Description
This book is a bold prescription for local government reform that moves well beyond the old arguments regarding consolidations (also referred to as amalgamations) and co-operation (sometimes referred to as shared services) to paint a picture of an efficient, effective tier of government that strikes a balance between the right of persons to pursue their existential ends and the need to promote the common good. The book presents a system of local government that balances human dignity with the common good, restrains Leviathan, provides a voice for the disenfranchised (and even the disinterested), and delivers goods and services efficiently and effectively. Ironically, what is often argued to be the weakness of local government in many jurisdictions – the fact that it is merely a creature of statute – is also the best hope we have of making the oft cited rhetoric about how ‘local government is the closest to the people that serves the people best’ become reality.
Reforming the UN System
Author: Carlos A. MagariñosPublisher: BRILL
ISBN: 900448079X
Category : Law
Languages : en
Pages : 205
Book Description
This volume discusses the rationale for and against multilateral development cooperation, with particular attention to international industrial development during the post-cold war era. It also documents how UNIDO has successfully transformed itself to contribute effectively to the global supply of international public goods within the purview of its mandate. A foreword by U.K. Secretary Clare Short illustrates the good reception that such transformation has elicited amongst the donor community as well as its demonstration and potential spillover effects on the whole of the UN system. The book, which contains testimonies of ambassadors of UNIDO's stakeholder countries as well as contributions by Messrs. J. D.-Martinussen, former Head of the Danish Mission for UNIDO's assessment, and R. Ricupero, Secretary-General of the United Nations Conference for Trade and Development (UNCTAD), can be expected to become an indispensable reference material for students of UN affairs and the international relations and development policy communities at large.
