institutions

Institutional Reforms and International Development

Our Institutional Development services include the design, implementation, oversight or monitoring of programs that seek to ensure that networks (physical or virtual) of stakeholders and organizations effectively generate, allocate and use human, material and financial resources to achieve Development Goals and targets based on People and Planetary value. Reducing poverty and protecting environmental livelihoods on a sustainable basis and on a global scale specifically through improved functionality of governance in Low Income Countries (LICs) and Lower Middle Income Countries (LMICs) is our forte. We would help to ensure that local institutions develop towards supporting and enabling the eradication of poverty and inequalities, and that the development ecosystem will enable more leveraging of public and private funds for this purpose. We are able to deliver Technical assistance, learning and sharing platforms as well as Policy Advisory services for efficient development financing. Specifically we deploy the following:
  1. Political Economy analysis
  2. Problem-Driven Iterative Adaptation (PDIA)
  3. Monitoring and Evaluation/Project and Program Review

Governance Advisory

The process by which public policy, people and planetary decisions are made and implemented involves social contract which is better and more fairly established through democratic governance. Better governance supports sustainable and inclusive political settlement, demands capability, accountability and responsiveness from the state. It also promotes social, political and economic inclusion and builds collective resilience and reduces vulnerability of the poor. Managing mass and managing diversity are the twin-challenge that most LICs and LMICs face. This twin-challenge, if not effectively overcome tends to invite dispute , incoherence, waste and corruption and may lead to conflict the consequences of which need to be prevented than resolved. Mothergold Consulting will provide expertise, program design and implementation services in the following areas:

  1. Democratic Governance and Elections Management
  2. Public Service Reforms
  3. Service Delivery Improvement

Sustainable Development Goals & Development Planning

Global Mobilization to achieve a set of social priorities worldwide started in 2000 with the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and continues with the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)post 2015. This set of 17 logical goals, establishing measurable and time bound targets is an enabler of geopolitical survival and today’s currency for global, national, sub-national and local citizens engagement dialogue. The SDGs embrace the so-called triple bottom line approach to human wellbeing: Economic Development, Social Inclusion and Environmental Sustainability. Without such vision, development frameworks, long term plans and missions, the future is dim, people are in danger and leadership remains without a compass . Mothergold consulting will support the achievement of these goals world-wide through sharing our expertise in the following areas:
