  10. Audit analysis 9

  11. Fund Management – Key issues – (1/2) • Month grant invoices in-arrears (pros and cons) • Relatively short grant periods : • BSF-1 originally 18 months and extended with 6 months • BSF-2 : 24 months • BSF –IA lasted 1-18 months • BSF-IA extention : 12 months • A two-step audit : • Step 1: 9 month’s audit which includes a management letter • Step 2: at the end for all eligible expenses for a final audit report • Closing down period of two months is too short 10

  12. Fund Management – Key issues –(2/2) • Budget re-allocations (In BSF-IA Total 1.5 m 27 times funds were reallocated due to (mainly) insecurity or management issues. • Maximum reallocation was for CMS I received GBP 387K and PSI had to return GBP 312K • Relative intensive monitoring (94 field trips, 559 invoices was in BSF-IA , 38 Audits conducted of which 68% without problems and only GBP 32,379 returned of which 36% was of 1 NGO) • Last but not least : donors and service providers adhered to payment schedules. 11

  13. Security Issues 12

  16. Security Issues (1/2) • Numerous security crisis affected grant implementation in BSF-IA : • The most recent (end March 2012) in Unity affects CARE’s operation (evacuation) in Guit, Parian, Mayiandit and Rubkona • Inter tribal clashed in Jonglei (since Dec 2011), affected IRD’s and IMC’s operations • CCM ‘s intervention was affected by inter-clan skirmishes in Warrap (August 2011 and January 2012). 15

  17. Security Issues (2/2) NGO’s crisis preparedness (frequent evacuations, re-deployments and crisis management) were effective. NGO’s assisted with budget reallocations (reduce targets in insecure locations in favour of more accessible ones). As a result the fund met most of its implementation targets. 16

  18. PE Targets and achievements 16

  19. Distribution of Education projects at the close of BSF-IA 11 grant recipients: 9.5m Burn rate: 99% 17

  20. BSF-IA PE Training Achievements • 2012 teachers trained through pre-service, in-service and English language courses. • 99% of targeted trainees • Coverage across all 10 States • 617 Government officials trained. • Support to CEDs • Leader in school inspection training 18

  21. BSF-IA PE Construction Achievements • 218 classrooms constructed • Value for Money • 32,000 students enrolled • RRA intervention provided host communities with permanent schools. • Community ownership • Software + Hardware 19

  22. BSF-IA PE Lessons Learnt • Working with local partners increases long term sustainability • Community ownership • Value for Money • Ability to deliver in difficult circumstances • Pre-service vs. In Service teacher training • Issues of Qualifications • Standardization of trainings • Beyond BSF • Reality: 2012 trained over grant cycle. • Sustainability and future funding 20

  23. PH Targets and achievements 21

  24. PH Construction of PHCC and PHCU per end 2011 • BSF-IA completed new construction of : • 8 PHCC (target 10) & 3 still under construction (at 80%) and expected to be completed in • BSF-IAe • 28 PHCU (target 40) & 8 still under construction •  Target reduced to 36 due to insecurity in Unity • Mayom (MSI: -3 PHCU) and in Jonglei, Akobo • (IMC: -1 PHCU). 22

  25. PH facilities repair and rehabilitation per end 2011 • During BSF-IA, 52 PHCC and 142 PHCU were supported (= target) • BSF-IA completed repair and rehabilitation of 15 PHCC and 18 PHCU (2 PHCC and 5 PHCU to be completed) 23

  26. PH Consultations per end 2011 • BSF-IA achievement of 1.5 million consultations  Can be compared with a target of 760,000 for 2012 ( based on a utilization rate –SSDP of 0.4) • Over the BSF period (2006-2011): 2.7 million consultations • In the same order of magnitude of SSDP’s 2013 target of 40% of the population with access to primary health. 24

  27. PH Immunization per end 2011 • 44,564 children <1year immunization (DPT3)  Estimated coverage of 34% and should be compared with: • SHHS (2006) record of 20% • SHHS (2010) of 14% • SSDP (2013) target of 70% 25

  28. Maternal Mortality Rate • BSF logframe’sbaseline (1999) : 1,500/100,000 livebirthwith a target of 25% reduction (MMR at 1125) by Dec 11. • To be compared with: • SHHS (2006) : 2054/100,000 livebirth, • MNRH (2009/2012) baseline: 2054 with a target of 1300 (2012) and 1040 (2015).  In the absence of updated information on MMR, “birth attendance by skilled health personnel” can also be used to measure progress towards improving Maternal Health. 26

  29. Assisted Births • BSF-IA proportion of all births assisted by skilled health workers was 0.8 or less than one percent. Skilled health staff: Midwives, nurses, clinical officers, doctors. • Of all expected deliveries 18% was skilled assisted (facility and home deliveries) • To be compared with: • - BSF (2006) and JAM (2005) baselines of 5% • - SSDP baseline (2010) of 15% • - SSDP 2013 target of 40%. 27

  31. BSF-IA WASHTargets and Achievements 29

  32. Summary BSF-IA WASH 27 grant recipients have a WASH component : • 8 grant recipient 100% WASH • 19 grant recipients PE or PH with a water component • Fund allocated for WASH : 8.6 M 30

  33. Water points achievements (1/2) Water points : Cumulative Results • Based on 500 beneficiaries per water point 31

  34. Water points achievements (2/2) Water points : Main conclusions • Above target for the total number of water points • For the whole BSF period : 1,091 boreholes • Over 6 years, 20% of the BSF payam population • catchment has gained access to drinking water • GoSS target: 40% over 10 years (24% over 6 years) •  Question : Are the boreholes still operational ? 32

  35. WASH lessons learned • Main Lesson learned Water : • Introduction of independent supervision of the construction : impact will be assessed • Rehabilitation and repair is cheaper than drilling new boreholes • A survey of the status of previous boreholes built will be executed as part of of BSF-IAe 33

  36. Sanitation achievements (1/2) Sanitation : Cumulative results • 5 beneficiaries per household latrine • 50 beneficiaries per cubicle for institutional latrine 34

  37. Sanitation achievements (2/2) Sanitation : Main Conclusions • Institutional Latrines : 95% of the target • Household Latrines : target not achieved : • Introduction of new approach: CLTS • Some NGOs promoted construction by the Communities  take more time • Over 3 years (BSF-2 and BSF-IA), 3% of the BSF Payam based catchment population got access to improved sanitation • GoSS target : 8% per year 35

  38. WASH lessons learned • Main Lessons learned Sanitation : • CLTS implemented by some NGOs on pilot areas : proved to be successful as : • more involvement of the community (in the design of the latrines + the construction) • But much more time consuming as it requires behaviour changes and cultural awareness 36

  39. BSF-IA achievements Training and Capacity Building 37
