The Sub-National Governance Programme (SNG) is launching the first round of the Innovation Challenge Fund (ICF) to support Khyber Pakhtunkhwa Government in improving Public Finance Management and expanding fiscal space.
In this connection, the programme held a consultation session with civil society representatives from the KP aiming at supporting to facilitate marginalized especially women’s access to the local government service delivery through the SNG’s Innovation and Challenge Fund (ICF).
The fund will be launched later this month to help the KP government in strengthening policies ultimately resulting in more revenues, better financial management and inclusive and accountable governance mechanisms.
The consultative session also addressed queries of civil society representatives. Saeed Khan, innovation adviser from the SNG Programme briefed the participants on the innovation and challenge fund and responded to key questions.—Agencies
