4.2 Determining realistic outcomes
There are various types of outcomes EU can seek to achieve in support to decentralization, local governance and territorial development.
In the past, donor agencies have often supported interventions at the local level that were confined to the delivery of development (sector) outputs (Item 2). Such programmes often lacked a political and institutional vision on the developmental role of LAs (Item 3) or on the necessary link with broader state (decentralisation) reforms and institutions (Item 1).
When using the TALD framework, EU delegations should seek to identify a politically smart and feasible mix of outcomes in the three spheres — sector, institutional and policy. Progress in each of the three areas is typically affected by a different dynamic and time frame.
