Project Description :
The Aceh Economic Development Financing Facility will support subproject initiatives for the economic development of Aceh and provide assistance in project management and capacity building.
The EDFF promotes post-tsunami economic recovery and fosters sustainable equitable long-term economic development in Aceh in line with the Government of Aceh’s own plans for economic development. The project aims to build a more competitive and supportive business environment necessary to create broad based private sector job opportunities and growth, targeting the poor and other vulnerable groups. The project will provide sub-grants to create opportunities for private sector job creation and growth.
Achievement to date:
The Grant Agreement for EDFF was signed on December 30, 2008 and the project became effective on March 30, 2009. The Government of Aceh has continuously supported the project through co-financing and linking to related technical agencies in order to build project ownership early on. Project implementation was delegated to the provincial government. To date the major achievements are in the capacity building component of the project, which is already showing results.
The model for using strong economic evaluation criteria to select sub projects helped set a standard for designing and deciding on economic development projects.
Challenges:
The late release of the budget note (DIPA) and the restrictions placed on it are causing serious delays to project implementation. The implementing agencies and the World Bank continue working together with the Ministry of Finance to solve this issue.
