The service was carried out by a team of two experts. The mission consisted of an ad hoc support to the ON in order to establish the conditions for an effective start of the actions envisaged in the 11th EDF SAN project. The specific objective was "to ensure a rapid, effective and efficient implementation of the SAN Program's start-up activities, through support to the National Coordination and sectoral components in terms of capacity building and management-administration". Two outcomes were expected: (i) the preparation of documents ready for publication / signature, (ii) the preparation of the staff of the stakeholders. The terms of reference of the intervention emphasized the notions of "coaching", "doing-doing" and "learning on the job" while providing for a mixed approach including in addition formal training, such as training in EDF procedures. 

• Definition of a strategic framework for the implementation and management of all projects of the second tranche of the EUTF aiming at strenghtening resilience and developing employment opportunities. 
•  Identification of a set of projects to be implemented under the second tranche of the EUTF. Interventions will respond to the strategic framework adopted and will meet standardized criteria.

The general objective of the PASILD ("Programme d’Accompagnement Structurant d’Initiatives Locales de Développement") is to structure and follow-up participative initiatives for integrated local development (environment, governance, gender). 

The mission was carried on within two distinct phases: the first allowed establishing an independent and global appraisal of the results reached by the PASILD at mid term, evaluating the methodology of its implementation and formulating recommendations regarding the evolution of the EU support in the field of local development in Chad. The second, in the framework of the implementation of the Country Strategy Paper and of the National Indicative Programme (10th EDF in Chad), consisted in the formulation of the Programme GRN/Local development and in the validation of the technical documents.
