Institutionalised participation
Institutionalised Participation can be defined as
a rights-based, structurally integrated, and
legitimised process through which capable
stakeholders shape and share control over
development initiatives. (black Brinkerhoff /
Goldsmith 2001 4)

Institutionalised participation reflects an open
and learning society which develops its own
potentials.

Standards for PRS participation
5
PRS processes - critical views

• Participation plays a crucial role in PRS
  processes, but ad hoc participation dominates.
• Most participatory processes organised as
  consultations, little collaboration joint
  responsibility is very rare.
• Civil society broadly involved but with
  limited impact.
• Govts CSOs invited - but little response, little
  legitimation.
• Parliaments legitimised for joint
  decision-making, but only marginally
  involved so far.
• Despite growing ownership IFIs are still
  dominating.

Participation Asssessment

• PRSP countries with
• strongly institutionalised participation
• moderate participation
• weak participation
• or countries with I-PRSP only
• Basis
• 28 indicators for the four participation
  standards rights, structures, legitimacy,
  capacity

Conclusions

• To strengthen institutionalised participation
• Formulate standards for participation.
• Rights. Structures. Legitimacy. Capacity.
• Organise systematic learning processes.
• Promote participatory governance
• ...in all political processes, e.g. PRS cycle
  MTEF and budget process sub-national politics /
  decentralisation intra-governmental
  decision-making.
• Support parliaments and societal actors.
• Higher priority for parliaments.
