With its strong emphasis on capacity building and complementary investments, the proposed Project would ensure that NT2 upstream and downstream compensatory activities are followed up by measures that enhance institutional sustainability and establish a provincial level public sector framework that is able to deliver the quality goods and services in the long term. The Project moreover, will provide opportunitiesbeyond those already envisaged- to profit from the downstream irrigation potentially generated by the NT2 facility. Considerable experience of building capacity in variety of areas across the country has brought a more systematic and cross-cutting approach to building capacity at the provincial level. These areas include bottom-up planning systems, linking planning and budgeting processes, strengthening public financial management, improving the investment climate and strengthening the monitoring and evaluation systems. The Project will make substantial contribution to: (i) sustaining the growth, (ii) improving social outcome, (iii) strategic approach to capacity development and partnership, and (iv) supporting NT2 implementation. The Project is financed by an International Development Association (the Association) Grant of Special Drawing Rights (SDR) 5,600,000 (USD 9,000,000 equivalent) signed on 25 July 2008 under financing agreement for grant no.
