We condemn the emerging culture at @cityofharare2 of making decisions and entering into agreements without Full Council Resolutions as prescribed in the Urban Council Act, this is bad local governance which promotes corruption and abuse of authority. newsday.co.zw/local-news/art…

Thank you for standing with @cohsunshinecity in these difficult times. Centralisation has no place in a devolved system of governance. Govt should be focusing on helping @cohsunshinecity recapitalise it's solid waste management equipment. Residents too we need to pay our bills…

@LocalT @bvtatrust @DiakoniaSverige @Perngoma @DiakoniaAfrica @DanChurchAidZW @communitypodium @CityofBulawayo @claudephuti Another element of focus at the #BudgetTraining constitutes Social Contracts. Councilors present have also attested to having utilised this method to gain trust from the residents. Social Contracts measure accountability and transparency in the provision to service delivery
@LocalT @bvtatrust @DiakoniaSverige @Perngoma @DiakoniaAfrica @DanChurchAidZW Citizen Expectations from their Councillors: 🔹Attend full Council meetings to articulate Residents' Ward development needs & aspirations. 🔹Facilitate infrastructural development & maintenance of Council property in the Ward. 🔹Monitor & report on service provision in the Ward.

Citizen Expectations from Councilors @byopra @ChraHarare @HarareResidents @cohsunshinecity @DanChurchAidZW @MoLGPWZim @InfoMinZW
A budget is a cycle with different stages and at every stage there are actions that must be done - Mr. Matumbike @byopra @ChraHarare @CityofBulawayo @DanChurchAidZW
Happening now: @byopra and @LocalT are carrying out a training workshop on Participatory Budgeting, Gender Budgeting and Effective Revenue Collection with Bulawayo City Council Ward Councillors. #Uhlelo @CityofBulawayo @bvtatrust @Perngoma @communitypodium @DiakoniaSverige
The training seeks to provide Councilors with a functional awareness of the local govt system; knowledge & skills to mobilize citizens to participate in Civic affairs; & social accountability knowledge & skills for effective & accountable representation @byopra @DanChurchAidZW

Mr. Akili Director of @ChraHarare presenting on the Inclusive Approach to Devolution implementation. He argued for the need for reforms on accounting systems and operating systems across all tiers of govt to enhance transparency & accountability @MoLGPWZim @ZimTreasury @byopra
Perm Ngoma Director of @byopra presenting on Residents' Devolution implementation aspirations. Key to her submission was the need for a legal framework guiding the disbursement of Devolution funds @DanChurchAidZW @HarareResidents @ParliamentZim @ChraHarare @nangozimbabwe
"The transfer of Devolution funds to LAs have created dependency among LAs on @ZimTreasury and this has killed the drive to raise domestic resources to fund service delivery" - Dr. Madhekeni @byopra @ChraHarare @HarareResidents @DanChurchAidZW @KudzaiChatiza2
Allocations vs Disbursements of #Devolution funds to Local Authorities in Zimbabwe. Less than 5 percent of Devolution funds are being disbursed to Local Authorities and this is impacting service provision. @LocalT @cohsunshinecity @byopra @SilveiraHouse64 @ParliamentZim @MoJLPA
Today, , @ChraHarare in partnership with @LocalT, @byopra and @SilveiraHouse64 is conducting a Policy Dialogue with the Parliamentary Portfolio Committee on Local Government.
