Instructions Activity 1: Service Delivery and Responsive Investment Ask the group to reflect on the following table. You may want to include it on a power point slide or give it as a handout provided in the Training Materials Guide. You could even divide flip chart paper into two and fill in the service delivery side and ask people to guess what they think the correlating response would be for responsive investment. Service Delivery Focus on needs Responds to problems Charity or entitlement orientation Emphasis is on external organizations Power comes from credentials Motivation to act comes from incentives/terms of employment Goal is excellent service People are clients and consumers Programs are the answer Responsive Investment Focus on assets Builds on opportunities Investment orientation Emphasis is on associations Power comes from relationships Motivation to act comes from dreams, fears and being asked to contribute Goal is community-driven development People are citizens/members People are the answer Ask people to form groups of 2-4 people and discuss if there organizations operates more in service delivery mode or responsive investment mode or both. What kinds of questions would they need to ask to ensure an activity was genuinely community-driven and investment-ready? What kinds of things would they look for? Ask them to come up with a checklist of what they would look for if they wanted to invest in something genuinely community-driven. Ask the groups to come back and share the checklist with the rest of the group. Below, you will find an example of a responsive investment fund established by Oxfam Canada in Ethiopia, which could be adapted to suit some of the groups that you are working with. It is also included in the Training Materials Guide. Give each participant a copy of the Community Leverage Fund handout and allow 5 minutes for participants to read in silence. 117
2.14. Community Leverage Fund (CLF) (Source: Oxfam Canada) Rationale for CLF The ABCD process encourages and motivates communities to look inwards and mobilize resources available within the community such as natural, physical and social assets. While many groups have mobilized their assets and have successfully cultivated community enthusiasm, during the mid-term ABCD evaluation it was observed that at some point all groups required additional resources from external actors or agencies to fulfill their goals. This prompted stakeholders to explore initiatives and tools to scale up community activities that were consistent with ABCD principles. One of the initiatives explored was a revolving “Community Leverage Fund” (CLF). The CLF would serve as additional financial capital that ABCD groups could apply for on a competitive basis. The fund is governed by the following key principles and operational modalities: • The Community Leverage Fund (CLF) support is aimed at addressing capital shortage of the ABCD community groups in their endeavor to engage in innovative technological, social or economic initiatives. • The CLF support will give priority to most promising innovative community initiatives that: - link or leverage of resources from government, research or technology institutions or the private sector; - have potential for scale up or replication in other communities; - have potential to greatly benefit the lives of community members; - demonstrate a high level of community commitment and investment. • The CLF exclusively targets ABCD groups who are established or will be established to support revolving fund modalities administered at the district level. • The CLF is not given freely and 100 % must be returned to the funding administration body to be revolved to other ABCD groups. • Existing ABCD groups will be given first priority in accessing a CLF loan. New community groups will have chance to access to such fund so long us they have passed through the ABCD process and have started mobilizing their own assets and engaged in economic and social activities. • Request for CLF should include a 1-2 page opportunity statement explaining: - what the community will do with the requested money; - how the request meets the above criteria; - an outline of the internal community assets that will be invested, and the external investments that will be leveraged. • The amount granted to each community group may not be uniform; some may receive larger shares as it is meant to focus on innovation, scale up and impact. 118
