New FCDO note on smart technical assistance

[Laure-Hélène Piron]

Hi everyone

 

Here is a new FCDO’s technical note to complement their guide on institutional analysis.  

 

https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/understanding-and-using-smart-technical-assistance

 

This note discusses the provision of technical assistance within international co-operation. It points to the advantages of combining technical assistance with robust diagnostics and also sets out some principles for adopting Smart Technical Assistance in order to enhance capacity building and partnerships. 

 

Best wishes

Hi Laure-Hélène, all

I found the Smart TA note really useful. I worked with colleagues on a note of our own, setting out key principles for implementation in a bit of detail. 

Hopefully of interest: https://adamsmithinternational.com/articles/on-delivering-smart-technical-assistance-lessons-for-real-world-impact/#resource:all
