This document provides information about governance analysis as part of the TDA/SAP process. It defines governance as the process of decision-making and implementation. Governance analysis examines the key aspects of political, economic, and civil society processes. It focuses on the dynamics of these relationships. There is no agreed approach, and the type of analysis will depend on the cultural, political, and social structures of the countries involved. The governance analysis should consider the decision-making, institutional, policy, and civil society arrangements that influence economic and political decisions affecting the issues being analyzed. The document provides advice to go beyond formal structures and understand informal dynamics and relationships.

Waste management services: a strategy for the integration of “Al-majiri" into...Yusuf Rigasa
Al-majiri are students of the informal educational system existing in northern Nigeria prior to emergence of western education. The lack of recognition and support from governments, dwindling resources and public support has led the students to employ desperate means of survival sometimes at great risks to public health and security. This paper proposes the integration of the students into local waste management strategies as a means of raising environmental quality, reducing deprivation and ensuring public health and safety. The strategy proposed the use of the students as waste managers in a resource-recovery based approach for the management of Municipal Solid Waste (MSW). The plan if implemented will help sustain the educational system and minimize its negative impacts on the wider society.

W
hen Will Wilkinson decided to major in phi-
losophy, his father wondered about the useful-
ness of the degree. “My dad asked if I was
going to work in a philosophy factory,” says Wilkinson.
“And now, I guess I do.”
Wilkinson is a policy analyst for a think tank in
Washington, D.C. As his anecdote suggests, think tanks
are, in a sense, idea factories. They employ policy
analysts to research complex problems and recommend
solutions. Issues range from education to healthcare to
national defense.
In fact, the ideas for many current laws and poli-
cies originated with policy analysts in think tanks and
other private organizations. Policy analysts—also called
researchers, scholars, and fellows—work to raise public
awareness of social issues, such as crime prevention,
access to healthcare, and protection of the environment.
And in the solutions they propose, these policy analysts
hope to influence government action.
Policy analysts who work for governments create
policy and evaluate program effectiveness; some help to
decide which private organizations should be awarded
publicly funded grants. For example, policy analysts
might suggest ideas for a county recycling plan, report
on how well a State project met its obje ...

What is Governance?
Governance means the process of decision-
making and the process by which decisions are
implemented (or not implemented)
The challenge for all societies is to create a
system of governance that promotes, supports
and sustains human development - especially
for the poorest and most marginal
7. +

Decision-making to

Economic
Decision-making

country's economic
activities

Cooperation among
individuals and

individuals- e.g. NGO’s
8. +
What is Governance Analysis?
Governance analysis should examine key
aspects of the processes of governance
(political, economic, civil society)
In particular it should focus in on the dynamics
of these relationships
9. +
What is Governance Analysis?
There is no agreed blueprint for governance
analysis in the TDA/SAP Approach
The type of governance analysis used will always
reflect the cultural, political and social structure
of the countries where it is being carried out
Furthermore, it will differ between different
water systems – what is appropriate for river
basins will not be appropriate for LMEs and vice
versa

activities and its relationships with other economies

o Relevant investments (both national and international)

o Political structure of the countries involved - including electoral
processes & representation systems
o Institutional frameworks – key government departments and

process of decision-making to formulate policy and regulation at

Advice from the Field…..
Use existing assessments - International or regional organisations (UNDP, World
Bank, regional development banks), universities, research institutes, NGOs, and
private sector consultancies
Try to go beyond the formal aspects of political and social interaction - Don’t
just describe the formal decision-making hierarchy but find out where decisions
are really taken, and by whom, and why
Attend coordination meetings at key ministries or agencies in order to observe
the dynamics – the informal ‘rules of the game’
Talk with in-house journalists at key ministries, and to journalists who cover
political and sectoral areas.
Identify long-time and former staff members - interview them; often this is
where the real institutional memory is deposited, the knowledge of what was
done when, what worked and what did not – and why;
