The wider objective of the project is to strengthen the use of social accountability tools, approaches and mechanisms by (a) citizens and citizens groups, (b) civil society organisations, (c) local government officials and (d) service providers as a means to make basic service delivery more equitable, effective, efficient, responsive and accountable.
The specific objectives are:

2. Citizens and citizens groups are empowered and increasingly demand for better quality public basic service delivery.
3. Citizens and citizens groups are aware of their responsibilities to plan, budget, implement and monitor basic service delivery.
4. Increased capacity of Civil Society Organisations to empower citizens and citizens groups on the use of social accountability tools, approaches and mechanisms.
The expected results of the project are:
1. A Grant Management scheme is established providing grants to Social Accountability Implementing Partners (SAIPS)
