Financial Analysis of Partner Local Government Units (LGUs) to Assess Needs for Technical Assistance

The Study is intended to guide the Project’s strategic planning so that the needs of partner LGUs are properly addressed. It enables the Project to develop preliminary profiles and assessments, conduct comparative analysis, and form guidelines for TA.

While preliminary in nature, the results of the Study will help answer the following questions:

ƒ Do partner LGUs have sufficient financial resources and management capacity to carry out the projects proposed in their ISWM or CRM Plans, or FLUPs?

ƒ How do different groups of LGUs, based on their geographic region or the sector delivering TA, differ from each other?

ƒ What basic financing options can the LGUs pursue for these projects and which LGUs need to access external financing?

ƒ What types of assistance can EcoGov 2 provide to each LGU?
