22
Ensure coherence for locally-led programmes by developing a cross-departmental local leadership strategy.
Conclusion
The Minister for International Development must ensure that there is coherence across the department in respect of promoting locally-led programmes and ensuring they deliver good VfM. This should include prioritising the development of a local leadership strategy as a cross- departmental piece of work that places lower- and middle-income countries at the centre. (Recommendation, Paragraph 68)
