LOCAL PUBLIC SECTOR ALLIANCE

Effective decentralization and accountable governance institutions at all levels provide one of the most important avenues for people-including the poor, women and minorities-to participate in the development of their communities and to influence the decision-making processes that are directly relevant to their lives. As a result, the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda recognizes the importance of building "effective, accountable and inclusive institutions at all levels"... Decentralization and localization can be defined as the empowerment of people through the empowerment of the local public sector.
