Objectives

Strengthen the Participatory Governance Framework

The ability of PDCs and the PAC to access grant funding or pursue economic and social projects are oftentimes dependent on their level of organisation and administrative competencies. Given the aforementioned realities, the PDC Administrative Grant has been established to provide financial support on a quarterly basis to PDCs and the PAC.
