Description

The principle focus is on strengthening governance structures in
moderate opposition parts of Syria. The capacity of local and provincial councils to serve their communities has been developing over time, but remains weak, and can lack transparency and accountability. Increasing their
capacity will both provide models for governance within post-conflict Syria, and deliver services to Syrians.
The approach that HMG has been employing to develop governance capacity is through "learning by doing". In local governance, livelihoods, civil defence, education and community policing, for instance, we are providing not just training, but the opportunities and resources to put that training into practice.
