Activities include training ministry staff, developing PFM tools, and establishing accountability mechanisms.
Strategic Overview
The World Bank's FCV Group seeks qualified firms to design and implement a public financial management (PFM) strengthening program for health ministries in the Sahel region (Burkina Faso, Mali, Niger). The objective is to improve budget execution, internal controls, and transparency in health spending to enhance service delivery in conflict-affected areas. Activities include training ministry staff, developing PFM tools, and establishing accountability mechanisms.
Who is it For?
International consulting firms, NGOs with PFM expertise, and academic institutions with strong capacity in public finance, health economics, and governance in fragile states.
Priorities
Aligns with the World Bank's FCV Strategy and the Human Capital Project, focusing on strengthening state capacity and service delivery in fragile contexts.
Eligibility
Demonstrated experience in PFM reforms in fragile settings, familiarity with the Sahel context, team with qualifications in financial management and health systems, and an ethical approach to conflict-sensitive programming.
Path to Success
Phase 1: Conduct a PFM diagnostic of health ministries using data analytics (GSLI: Data Analysis for Project Management). Phase 2: Deliver a customized training program for ministry staff on financial management (GSLI: Financial Management for NGOs) and grants management (GSLI: Grants Management Training Workshop). Phase 3: Implement a monitoring framework with accountability mechanisms (GSLI: Monitoring, Evaluation, Accountability and Learning). Phase 4: Provide ongoing technical assistance and adaptive management. GSLI's financial management and grants management courses directly address the core PFM skills required, while M&E ensures compliance and impact reporting that the World Bank demands.
