Theory of change: The underlying theory of change for this outcome is that to achieve people-centred governance with respect for rule of law and human rights, including gender equality, there is need for policy-planning, budgeting, financing, and results monitoring and reporting to become more coherent, evidence-based and SDG-aligned with the availability and use of disaggregated data; institutional settings are functionally aligned with each other and are capacitated and accountable; the judicial system and law enforcement agencies and national human rights mechanisms to improve to make it more independent, effective, gender- and child-sensitive, disability-inclusive and responsive to the justice needs of the marginalised groups; corruption and organised crime to be tackled through enforcement of laws and preventive action; civil service to be non-partisan, more professional, merit-based, and accountable; free and independent media that plays a strong watchdog function to keep the government accountable; potential of digital transformation to be tapped; meaningful participation of the civil society and public, especially the marginalised groups, through civic engagement and volunteering in the design and implementation of services and policies, and monitoring of human rights realisation encouraged; human trafficking especially of women and children tackled; discriminatory practices, harmful social and gender norms, hate speech, disinformation and fake news firmly countered; conducive environment created for women’s participation in social, economic and political life; and decentralization is strengthened for local development planning, budgeting and implementation of services in an integrated manner, especially benefiting the vulnerable groups.
