In rural area, the Unified Framework for Intervention is the common reference for all actors. It defines the rules and procedures for all stakeholders, is used to support capacity building of all stakeholders, and for the transfer of powers to local authorities under legislation on decentralization.

Institutional frameworkThe preferred option is to build on existing structures and strengthen them in order first, to ensure ownership of the program by the State Services as part of their sovereign functions, and secondly, to state the respective roles of local authorities, private sector and civil society.
