CAPACITY BUILDING

FOR

IMPLEMENTATION
OF

UIDSSMT PROGRAMME
 INTRODUCTION
 UIDSSMT Programme, a component under the
national Urban Renewal Mission (NURM) Programme,
has already been lunched this year in the 10th Plan
Period.
 To make the programme a success it is felt that the
training of all level officials of the ULBs and concerned
stakeholders is of utter necessity and it should be taken
up concurrently with the implementation of the
programme.
 NECESSITY
 The primary aim of capacity building in this context is to create a dedicated
and suitable capacity to prioritize, conceptualize, develop and manage the
NURM supported reforms so as to ensure sustainability – managerial and
institutional.
 One of the most basic and yet most important issue to “Change
Management and Training’ is that ULBs do not have structured training
programmes. Even if they exist, they address specific aspects of functional
skills.
 The ULB employees would need detailed training, while higher-level official
would need more of an overview.
 The focus of training for the state/center level officials would be project
management, review procedures, planning and review processes etc.
 OBJECTIVE
 The basic objective of capacity building is to augment
the in-house capacity of the institution to keep parity
with the present day civic demands particularly in the
context of much higher role of the local bodies in civic
administration as per the 74th amendment of the
constitution.
 The capacity building will mainly focus upon the
Training for Upgradation of skill of the elected
councillors and all level Employees of the Local bodies.
 The basic purpose of the Training Programme will
be to provide a comprehensive idea about the
following points of reforms:-

 Broadening awareness of the latest trends in policy approach in

urban sector.

 Understanding the legislative framework within which ULBs

function.

 Deepening managerial, technical and analytical skills for

improving urban administration.

 Developing leadership skills required for working with various

stakeholders – namely – elected representatives, media,
employee unions etc., with the objective of providing a citizen
centered governance.
 Providing opportunity to learn from alternative systems of public
management based on comparative studies of various cities in
India.
 Offering courses and workshops coordinated with issues being
tackled by the selected cities, i.e., financial management and
accounting reforms, resource mobilization, or water and
sanitation service delivery improvements;
 Developing practical, hands-on training sessions based on case
studies of the experience of other cities in India; and
 Addressing gender issues, sensitivity to the poor, and working
with CBOs.
 ACHIEVEMENTS
 The Capacity Building in the perspective of UIDSSMT
programme will help to improve the following aspects
for smooth and proper functioning as well rendering
more and improved municipal services to the town
dwellers :-
1) Preparation of
a) Training Manual,
b) Construction Management & Post work
Maintenance Management,
 c) Financial Management along with cost recovery
mechanism
d) Management for preservation of created assets.
2) Effective Public participation for improving transparency
in implementation of the schemes and keeping proper
accounts of the expenditures.
3) Increasing Awarness and Motivation among the general
public of the town.
 PROPOSAL
 For Capacity Building emphasis has been given on
District level training for all level officials of the ULBs
and concerned stakeholders.

 The officials of the ULB will be categorized in three

different groups namely
• Policy Holders and Top Executives,
• Middle Level Management
• Front-end workers.
 There should be a provision of upgradation of the Capacity Building

through Workshops, Conferences, Seminars and Study tours.

 It is also necessary to strengthen urban management training institutions

to render proper and effective training to the municipal administrative and

technical officers and elected councillors on NURM reform areas for

achieving the best possible result.

 The training programme has been scheduled in 8 (eight) different Modules

to discuss in details on various aspects starting from the preparation of the

detailed project reports to execution of the schemes.

 Each Module will comprise of 8 sessions and for a duration of 2 days.

 COST OF TRAINING

 The cost of training has been

evaluated as Rs. 43,700/- per
module for a batch of 20
