Attachment J-4: USAID/UGANDA RESULTS FRAMEWORK

Successful implementation of the programmatically integrated CDCS will require a systematic cross-office collaboration that thus far has been uneven and largely dependent upon individual relationships across the Mission. It will also require a more intense approach to strategic collaboration with outside actors including: The Government of Uganda (GoU), the private sector, civil society, other USG agencies, and other donors. It will require:

● Overcoming often entrenched institutional systems, processes and incentives – in the Uganda Mission and Agency-wide – that encourage technical and functional stovepipes.

● Adeptly managing what at times could be crossed or otherwise complex lines of reporting.

● Developing more efficient communication and collaboration channels as well as more streamlined processes in order to provide for the time required for the CLA inherent in USAID/Uganda’s approach to integration; and

● Helping Mission offices better understand the perspectives, opportunities, constraints and languages of their sister offices.

To help realize the opportunities implicit in the new CDCS, USAID/Uganda intends to deepen the ‘living strategy’ approach it piloted in its previous CDCS. The ‘living strategy’ will be grounded in: (i) a strong learning and analytical agenda; and (ii) deliberately planned pause-reflect-adapt and other stocktaking moments which, together, will drive evidence-based programming and prioritization; facilitate a more timely and nuanced understanding of contextual shifts; better inform program adjustments; and build consensus on the way forward through participatory approaches.

Essential to adhering to the Guiding Principles and, ultimately, to the success of the 2016-2021 CDCS, is the ‘Mission of Leaders’ organizational development program the Mission has been pioneering since 2012.
