General
IDEAL is a programme by VNG International that works on the involvement of citizens in local governance in seven countries facing fragility or conflict. The participation of citizens contributes to inclusive decision-making. It improves local governance and the delivery of basic services. It makes local governance more sustainable and increases welfare and stability. Our drive and expertise is to support local governments in building bridges with all their citizens - including marginalised groups. Being part of VNG (the Association of Netherlands Municipalities) we benefit from over a hundred years of experience in the field of local governance. IDEAL targets local governments and local government associations in 7 countries: Burundi, Mali, Palestinian Territories, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan and Uganda.
General
IDEAL will be implemented by VNG International, the International Cooperation Agency of the Association of Netherlands Municipalities, from 1st January 2017 until 31st December 2021. The programme started with a six-month inception phase, during which management structures have been set up, a communication & visibility strategy has been developed (incl. a website), the M&E methodology has been finalised, and the baseline has been carried out. Activity implementation started in July 1st, 2017.
The overall programme is managed from VNG International headquarters in The Hague. The country programmes are managed by local teams (led by a Resident Programme Manager) jointly with programme managers based in The Hague. Each country programme works towards the three outcomes by focusing on a specific policy sector that is related to fragility at the local level.
Various technical approaches are used, varying from on-the-job coaching, training, workshops, grants, study visits, and inter-municipal cooperation.
General
Inclusive DEcisions At Local Level (IDEAL) is a new programme, funded by the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which targets 7 countries: Burundi, Mali, Palestine, Rwanda, Somalia, South Sudan and Uganda. These countries are or have been affected by past or present conflict and cope with various dimensions and degrees of fragility. We share the widely held view, expressed by OECD and many other organisations, that weak capacity or political will of government institutions to carry out basic governance functions in an effective and inclusive manner and to develop mutually constructive relations with the population are among the most significant causes of fragility and instability. The absence of a functioning 'social contract' between state and citizens reduces the prospects of human security, poverty alleviation, sustainable social and economic development and proper management of public and natural resources. It is therefore exactly this problem, the weak social contract, that the IDEAL programme aims to address, thereby contributing to the ability of local governments to better cope with fragility risks. The program will run for five years (Jan 2017 – Dec 2021), and has a budget of €17,5mln. IDEAL builds on the lessons learned from a previous programme (Local Government Capacity Programme, LGCP, 2012-2016).
General
Overall Programme
Objectives
The impact of IDEAL is: The stronger social contract between local governments and citizens has enhanced local governments' capacity to cope with fragility risks.
In order for local governments to establish a strong social contract, they need to be perceived as legitimate actors (from an input and output point of view) and they need an enabling institutional and policy environment that empowers them. Therefore, the IDEAL programme outcomes are:
* Outcome 1: Service delivery by local governments in key policy areas is more responsive and effective ("Output legitimacy").
* Outcome 2: Decision-making processes at the local level in key policy areas are more inclusive and participatory ("Input legitimacy").
* Outcome 3: The policy and institutional environments of local governments has improved ("Enabling Environment").
Target Groups
The main target group is local governments in selected target areas of the 7 countries. Furthermore, each country programme has selected a target group (usually the local government association) that can play a key role in contributing to a more enabling environment for local governments.

Decision-making processes at the local level in key policy areas are more inclusive and participatory (Input legitimacy).
Input legitimacy is the part of the institutions’ legitimacy, which is based on their capacity to both accommodate the active participation of citizens’ throughout the decision-making process (participation) and to ensure adequate representation of all interests in society at various levels of governance in a fair and equal manner (inclusiveness).

Outcome
indicator( 5 )
Service delivery by local governments in key policy areas is more responsive and effective (Output legitimacy).
Output legitimacy is the part of the institution’s legitimacy that is constructed as a result of their perceived and observable achievements. By responsiveness we understand the capacity to address (identifiable) needs/demands by citizens and respond to existing (measurable) challenges in a community. By effectiveness we understand the degree to which policy objectives are achieved and the extent to which targeted problems are solved through concrete interventions of the local governments.
INDICATOR
Effectiveness (Objective) Index
This index is made up of 2 indicators measured through focus group discussions with local government representatives and stakeholders:
1. The services delivered by the local government solve the key issues in the policy area.
2. Roles of actors involved in policy implementation (incl. Services) are clearly defined in the policy area.
The effectiveness (objective) index shows the average score attributed by an analyst across these two indicators on a scale from 0 to 100, based on whether these elements are embedded and sustainable (75-100%), existent and positive but with room for improvement (50-75%), existent but insufficient (25-50%), or inexistent, very poor, with a negative impact (0-25%).

Outcome
indicator( 5 )
The policy and institutional environments of local governments has improved (Enabling Environment).
Enabling environment is a set of interrelated conditions that impact on the capacity of local governments to engage in development processes in a sustained and effective manner. By policy environment we refer to the set of legal, administrative and procedural frameworks that affect the capacity of the local governments to drive development process and change. By institutional environment we refer to the set of inter-institutional relations that determine the capacities of the local governments to carry out their functions.
INDICATOR
Enabling environment index
The enabling environment index combines the four indexes under Outcome 3 measuring the policy and institutional environment of local governments through perception and objective indicators. The index is scored on a range of 0 (very poor) to 100 (very good).

Impact
indicator( 1 )
The stronger social contract between local governments and citizens has enhanced local governments' capacity to cope with fragility risks.
The contract between local governments and citizens is the mechanism by which everyone in a political community, either explicitly or tacitly, consents to state authority, thereby limiting some of her freedoms, in exchange for the state’s protection of their universal human rights and security and for the adequate provision of public goods and services.
INDICATOR
Aggregated quality of the social contract index
The program impact is measured by the social contract index, which combines the three level II outcome indices: output legitimacy index, input legitimacy index and enabling environment index. The social contract index is scored on a range of 0 (very poor) to 100 (very good).
