Local governments play a crucial role in providing basic services and fostering sustainable economic development. As government layer closest to citizens, decentralised government moreover has the potential to contribute considerably to increased accountability and democratic governance in a country. This course discusses how to design, implement and support effective decentralisation strategies in order to strengthen governance and development from the bottum up.
