• W847029681 abstract "THEME OF INTERVIEWIn line with Lise Grande's presentation at the John F. Kennedy School of Government at Harvard University on 18 February 2014 and the mission of the Harvard Africa Policy Journal (APJ) to encourage dialogue on African policy, APJ wanted to learn about the UN's engagement with the government of Sudan (GoSS) on state building. The interview with Grande focuses on challenges and achievements as well as areas of improvement going forward. Grandes responses in this interview do not reflect the views of the UN or its agencies.Lise Grande has worked for the United Nations since 1994, serving in Armenia, Angola, Democratic Republic of Congo, East Timor, Haiti, Occupied Palestine, Sudan, Sudan, and Tajikistan. She has worked in some of the United Nations' largest humanitarian and peace-keeping operations and is now serving as the UN Resident Coordinator in India.APJ: Can you please talk us through the state-building process in Sudan, focusing on the priorities that were set out given that there was no precedence for something like it?LISE GRANDE: The state-building exercise in Sudan represents the single largest effort at state building undertaken since World War II. There has been nothing like it in terms of scope and complexity. The international community tried to help in several ways. A key aim was to give as much space as possible to the Sudanese leadership to stabilize their newborn country and lay the foundations for state takeoff. At the same time, the international community was committed to helping put in place the essential core state functions necessary for the new government to function. Working from a roadmap agreed with the Sudanese leadership, the UN and international partners worked around the clock in the lead-up to independence to ensure that nineteen core state functions were in place; these included a functioning treasury, procurement mechanisms, a functioning police force, and so forth. The intention was to continue putting in place, over the course of five years, more than 120 additional functions in a sequenced and systematic manner.APJ; You stated that the nineteen core functions were to be sequenced. There is a recent (October 2013) article by Harvard Professor Tant Pritchett and others called South Sudan's Capability Trap: Building a State with Disruptive Innovation, which argues that there was poor sequencing of die priorities you just listed...[Here is an excerpt from the article: [Francis] Fukuyama and [Brian] Levy posit four potential development sequences, each defined by its initial entry point: state capacity building; transformational governance; 'just enough' governance; and bottom-up development through civil society. The ideal entry point and sequence will be the one that is capable of breaking a low-growth logjam, and initiating a virtuous spiral of cumulative change!The authors argue that ... context was largely overlooked during Sudan's crucial interim period and after independence, in order to pursue the international donors' preferred state building agenda. Without any history of Sudanese self-governance, no predecessor institutions, and starting essentially from scratch, the temptation to transplant 'best practices' was hard to resist. Development strategies were designed and implemented primarily by donors, with limited Sudanese ownership' and only notional adherence to principles of'aid effectiveness! The robust state capacity-building intervention has not resulted in high levels of success; the amount of capacity transference to GoSS during the interim period was minimal, and the region achieved independence amid serious capacity concerns and predictions of state failure. ']GRANDE: Dr. Pritchett has raised an important point. Although there was a roadmap for the nineteen core functions-and within the first year of statehood, a five-year development plan-a comprehensive, prioritized, and sequenced state-building plan did not exist. …" @default.
