The Pan African state Accountability Project (PASAP) is a multi-partner, multi-level Pan-African project that is overall coordinated by Plan International African Union Liaison and Pan Africa Program Office.
The first phase of PASAP ended on 30th of June 2018. An extension period of one year (July 2018 – June 2019) has been approved by the Swedish International Development Cooperation Agency (Sida), serving both as an opportunity of putting proper closure of phase 1 of the PASAP, but also as preparatory phase for the next multi-annual application to the donor. We have now been given instruction to design the 2nd phase of the project for the period July 2019 – June 2024.
As part of the planning of phase two of the project, Plan is organizing a workshop in Addis Ababa, from 2-5 October 2018. The workshop will bring together Plan International and partner CSO organizations and networks under PASAP, namely the Institute of Human Rights and Development in Africa (IHRDA), African Movement for Working Children and Youth (AMWCY), Center for Human Rights at the University of Pretoria (CHR/UHR), African Child Policy Forum (ACPF), East African Child Rights Network (EACRN), Child Rights Network for Southern Africa (CRNSA), and West Africa Civil Society Forum (WACSOF). Moreover, an important stakeholder in the implementation of PASAP, the Network of African National Human Rights Institutions (NANHRI) will also participate in the workshop. Furthermore, invitations will also be extended to other organizations who we consider instrumental in the project design and implementation.
Through a consultative process involving partners and key stakeholders, the workshop aims undertake the following:
- Review the findings of the final evaluation of the first phase of PASAP projects to make sure that the findings (achievements, lessons learnt and recommendations feed into the planning of the 2nd phase.
- Review and present key aspects of documents regarding donor requirements and instructions in order for the participants to have a clear understanding of donor conditions that will affect the development of the second phase of PASAP.
- Design the 2nd phase of PASAP, particularly reflecting on the theory of change; project objective and outcomes; key implementation strategies and indicative activities and budget clearly relating to the instructions and templates for the proposal.
Addressing cross-cutting themes in to the project design, focusing mainly on mainstreaming gender equality, child participation and CSO strengthening; and reflect on other.
Addressing other key aspects relevant for the project, mainly synergy and knowledge management amongst all PASAP stakeholders
