Support to the Heritage Institute for Policy Studies Stöd till HIPS - startegisk utvecklingsplan för   2015/2016 The Heritage Institute for Policy Studies (HIPS) has applied to Sida for funding of 4 million SEK to carry out the ''HIPS strategic development plan 2015-2016'' in Somalia during the period 1 October 2015 to 31 December 2016. 

The intervention aims at strengthening HIPS which is a national policy institute to be able to play their role more effectively as a think tank influencing policy decisions on Somalia by producing policy briefs from their thematic research programs and outreach and impact programs. Therefore the support aims at i) institutional structure strengthening, ii) increased capacity for resource mobilization, iii) increased human resource capacity, iv) increased financial administration capacity. The intervention also aims at supporting the implementation of the HIPS strategic development plan 2015 which includes thematic research programs and outreach and impact programs. The Research, Analysis and Development Evaluations (RAADE), with is a unit within HIPS will also conduct a trend analysis of Swedish support in Somalia. The Heritage Institute for Policy Studies (HIPS) har ansökt om stöd från Sida på totalt MSEK 4 för genomförandet av sin strategiska plan  "HIPS strategic development plan 2015-2016" i Somalia under perioden 1 oktober 2015 till 31 December 2016. 

Insatsen syftar dels till att stärka institutet i sin roll som en nationell think tank och dess kapacitet att kunna påverka policybeslut genom att bland annat producera "policy briefs" baserat på dess tematiska forksknings- och påverkansprogram. Detta stöd inbegriper därför i) stärkandet av den institutionella strukturen, ii) stärkt kapacitet för resursmobilisering, iii) ökad personalkapacitet, iv) stärkt finansiell administrativ kapacitet. Insatsen syftar också till att stödja implementeringen av HIPS strategiska utvecklingsplan 2015 som inkluderar tematiska forsknings- och påverkansprogram . HIPS kommer även att genomföra en trendanalys av Sveriges stöd till Somalia. SIDA support is aimed to strengthen the institute as an independent Somali-owned and Somali-managed think tank. The core support has been crucial in ensuring continued operation of HIPS as an independent policy institute. Hence, the support has strengthened HIPS institutional capacity, increased its research output, expanded its policy engagement as well as enabled it to augment and diversify its funding streams.
HIPS five-year strategic plan objectives are:Strategic objective 1: To develop programs and conduct research in the priority thematic areas of peace, justice and good governance.Strategic objective 2: To foster inclusive public dialogues that will influence policy, increase transparency and accountability and inform HIPS research agenda.Strategic objective 3: To ensure sufficient staff in both numbers and capacity to deliver organizational objectives.Strategic objective 4: To fully computerize the core and support functions of HIPS activities.
Projektdokument vägar stöd till energiutbyggnad Projectdocument auxiliary roads south-east Liberia - Projectdocument auxiliary roads south east Liberia The overarching objective of the proposed programme is to stimulate socio-economic development and the living conditions of people living in poverty in rural areas of Liberia by increasing access to electricity based on renewable energy sources by engaging the private sector to co-invest in building, operating and expanding electricity services in the distribution networks in the South East of Liberia. The programme will be complemented by two supporting measures, investing in access roads and in continued support to the reform process with the aim of ensuring an enabling regulatory environment. Ensuring physical access by road is expected to increase interest for participation from prospective electricity service providers as roads will lower the investment costs for building and maintaining renewable energy power plants and distribution grids compared to air-lifting equipment; and as roads also  play a role in stimulating economic growth and poverty reduction, enabling goods and services to be brought to market and thereby also playing a key role in enabling growth in electricity demand, making the investments more viable. This is especially important in isolated grids where there are few options to sell surplus power outside the geographical boundaries of the mini-grid. 

This specific contribution relates to the supporting measure in auxilliary roads and the specific objective is to procure a consultant for formulation of implementation of a strategy and monitoring framework for the Swedish financial support to the increased access to the South-East of Liberia. The consultant will facilitate the design and formulation together with the Ministry for Public Works (MPW)  and produce a project document that is in line with Swedish development cooperation policies. Det övergripande målet med det föreslagna programmet är att stimulera socioekonomisk utveckling och levnadsvillkoren för fattigdom i landsbygdsområden i Liberia genom att öka tillgången till el baserade på förnybara energikällor genom att engagera den privata sektorn att saminvestera i byggande, drift och expansion av eltjänster i distributionsnäten i sydöstra Liberia.

Key outcomes: 1) Improved efficiency in trade logistics for exports and imports in  Ethiopia. 2) Streamlined procedures and improved environment for registering and operating business 3) More efficient, transparent and user friendly business taxation process. The overall objective of the Ethiopia IC Program is to streamline and simplify selected high priority regulations considered burdensome to private businesses and address investment climate issues that are holding back investment and productivity growth in Ethiopia. The project will adopt a sequenced 2-4 years Investment Climate Program that will allow for a realistic implementation that reflects client capacity, readiness and buy-in. To ensure flexibility, and to realistically reflect the volatile political context in Ethiopia, the project commits to delivering at least 2 out of the following 4 objectives by project end.
The Program specifically aims at:
(1) Addressing binding constraints to increased investment in one agribusiness and one tourism sub sector, generating at least three new high quality investments.
(2) The Trade Logistics component will achieve the following outcomes at the end of the project (a) Time to export will be reduced by 15% from 42 days as measured by DB 2012 to 36 days at the end of the project while time to import will be reduced by 16% from 44 days as measured by DB 2012 to 37 days at the end of the project; (b) The number of documents to trade will be reduced by 10% (baseline DB 2012); (c) The project will lead to an improved risk management system and an improved level of automation in the trade logistics system.
(3) The business registration and licensing component will increase the number of new or formal businesses that are registered by at least 10%, reduce the time and cost of business registration, and significantly streamline/eliminate licensing requirements (by a target that will be defined by the first PSR).
(4) Reducing the time and costs of dealing with business taxes by 10%, and broaden the tax base by increasing the number of small businesses registered for tax purposes.
