1.Background 2.Experience from PRS implementation 3.Major Constraints to PRS implementation 4.Key PRS lessons learnt 5.Best Practices in PRS implementation

 Liberia’s first post war development agenda, the Lift Liberia PRS ended in 2011 with a focus on relief, recovery, and reconstruction.  Despite many challenges, Liberia has experienced robust growth and improvement in social, economic, and institutional indicators.  Several key lessons learned from PRS implementation

 The PRS1 was developed through a consultative and participatory process. PRS objectives and activities organized into four pillars:  Peace and Security  Economic Revitalization  Governance & Rule of Law  Infrastructure & Basic Services  Cross cutting issues, particularly capacity building and gender equality was also a quasi-pillar  Each pillar had a matrix of planned actions and responsible agencies, with the focus mostly on OUTPUTS (deliverables)  15 County Development Agendas were also developed for each county to guide the local activity of the service delivery ministries

 PRS implementation was coordinated by the LRDC Steering Committee chaired by the President. The LRDC Secretariat managed the day to day affairs working with the sectors and pillars  The cost of implementing the PRS was estimated at US$1.6 billion:  GoL commitments US$500 million from the national budget  Donor commitments US$600 million  Year 1 implementation was slow relative to potential ( only 20% of deliverables completed)  Rapid Results Approach (using 90-Day Plans) introduced at PRS Cabinet Retreat to reorganize agencies and accelerate implementation rate  Civil society and private sector participation in PRS implementation was not clearly defined  Effective monitoring of PRS posed a challenge due to weak coordination between field level M&E and the national unit

 Ownership: A lack of whole government approach to the PRS (legislature, judiciary, executive)  Capacity: Inadequate human and institutional capacity to implement effectively  Alignment: National budget allocations were not always aligned to the PRS  Coordination: poor coordination between GoL, Civil society and the Private Sector

 National budget allocations and the budget process were not aligned to the national development plan (PRS)  Coordination mechanism around donor assistance in terms of alignment and harmonization was very weak;  PRS implementation must take deliberate actions to address issues of inequality, marginalization and inclusion;  Focus was more about interventions and deliverables than development results (outcome);  Monitoring and Evaluation was weak, without clear baselines, targets and outcome-focused indicators  Participation of some key stakeholders (CSO & Private sector) must be enhanced

 National development planning must be sensitive to the nexus between economic growth and social inclusion  Implementation of the national agenda must be based on a clear results chain with a focus on achieving outcomes and impact  A strong mechanism to coordinate government, CSO and private sector must be established  A strong Monitoring & Evaluation framework with clear baselines, targets and outcome-focused indicators to measure development results  National budget that is strongly aligned to the national agenda
