Citizens’ Voice and Accountability Evaluation – <strong>Bangladesh</strong> Country Case Study III: Models of Change Developed The model of change is predicated on the assumption that have pervaded RDPs for the last 12 years, that if citizens are consulted on their local infrastructure development priorities (roads, markets, bridges, culverts) , these will be most likely to be maintained. The model of change has widened in scope in recent RDPs to include the assumption that if tax collection is improved then not only will UPs have more local funds to allocate without central government interference but these funds can be allocated to genuine local priorities which taxpayers will demand accountability for. The indications are that UPs which previously worked in a mostly patron client manner are now responding to taxpayers and constituents demands. The consultative processes do enhance maintenance- local contracting societies manage routine maintenance and there is reportedly less destruction of road sides and less use of roads for non-transport purposes. UPs vary enormously in terms of member’s educational background and experience and the projects to date have mostly worked with better performing UPs . The degree of mentoring required for weak UPs may be inordinately intensive. Corruption is rife in may UPs and TIB has indicated that LGED is one of the most corrupt Government departments. As much of the work in the RDPs relates to the distribution of construction contracts, it is likely that this activity is still common. In order for the necessary checks and balances to be ensured, there would be a need to build up citizen voice (directly and media exposure) independently of RDP. 102
Citizens’ Voice and Accountability Evaluation – <strong>Bangladesh</strong> Country Case Study Model of change Assumptions CVA Activities Outputs Outcomes Local government has little influence on local development because of resource capture above and weak capacity Community participation in infrastructure schemes will mean that they are priorities for them, they will want to maintain them and will feel LG is acting in their interests UP have a key role to play in demanding good service provision for their electorate. PPeace, UP needs , to be more accountable to its electorate Basic training on roles and responsibilities of UP, gender awareness and principles of community participation Intensive training and mentoring of UPs on pilot basis Awareness raising in communities about their role and role of UP Convening of public meetings to discuss UP plans, budget and performance Provision of incentives (small grants, infrastructure development projects) on compliance with CV and A Enhanced awareness of roles and responsibilities and increased participation of women UP members UPs operate in a more participatory manner ‘with full and active involvement of stakeholders’’ Implementation of priority infrastructure development schemes Enhanced use of UP complexes Increased local revenue collection for local investment Increased accountability and transparency of UP Better designed, implemented infrastructure schemes Social and economic benefits optimised by addressing citizens’ priorities for infrastructure development Women UP members should be more able to participate fully Construction and limited equipping of ‘one stop service’ UP Complexes, notice boards 103
