Steering Committee

What is Steering Committee (SC)?

The Decentralization and Local Development Programme (dldp) is part of the Swiss Agency for Development and Cooperation (SCO-A) country programme in Albania, based on a bilateral framework agreement between the governments of Albania and Switzerland.

DLDP is governed by a national Steering Committee (SC), which meets regularly.

• Main functions of the steering committee consist on:
  ascertain that dldp implementation is in accordance with the main goals, objectives and expected results outlined in the project document;
• ascertain that project implementation contributes to policy dialogue on decentralization and local governance in the country;
• assure information flow and exchange with regard to relevant national developments, link and connections to national level actors;
• assure that sustainability of dldp interventions is as far as possible guaranteed;

Dldp serves as secretariat of Steering Committee.
