Good Governance: PPDC Partners Stakeholders On Effective Strategies

“Over time, we have realized the need for us to do our work on evidence, which led to us doing the research. it is also important for us that gathering of the evidence could create a process whereby all the stakeholders who we would need their inputs are involved and ofcourse there is the need for us to validate the information and ensure that when we are publishing information, whatever we put out to public is accurate, is the best level obtainable and ensure also that every input that is needed to make the report to be complete is also  included as well.

Physical Transparency is very key to ensuring that there is more of citizens participation, ensure that there is improve service delivery. He emphasied.

“With this review, we are expecting that this will help us to have more comprehensive report at the end of the day. Doing our best to ensure that all the inputs are captured. That is to say  whatever we publish as the final report will not only be the views of the PPDC  but of all the stakeholders involved in the process.
