News in Brief Number 2
Title and date of the event Kick-off meeting of the Local Development Strategy (LDS) process in Zawia, 10 March 2013.
Organised by CIL and the Local Council of Zawia, in cooperation with the Libyan Association of Jurists. Themeeting was chaired by M. Abdulkhalak Jarboa from Local Council and moderated by CIL and
the experts of NAXTA (Francesco Natale and Zoran Krtinic), subcontracted by CIL for the LDS
component of the project.
Location Az Zawia (conference hall of the Refinery)
Purpose of the activity The meeting had three objectives: a) to explain to key stakeholders the principles and
methods of the action (drafting a Local Development Strategy for the territory of Zawia); b) to
establish a coordination committee or drafting team (about 15 members) which will support
and coordinate all activities; c) to facilitate the dialogue and exchanges among key
stakeholders (lack of communication between the different players involved in local planning
is considered by all organisation as a major weakness)
Number of participants About 50 participants representing CSOs, local council, Ministry of planning and other keyinstitutions involved in territorial management.
Comments The meeting was covered by local media and also largely advertised through web media
(Facebook page of the Local Council and other participants). Ministry of Local Administration
is observing the process and may support it. A draft list of members of the coordination
committee (still to be finalized by the Local Council) was made and these potential members
have received a specific training on LDS (Zawia, 12 March, training delivered by CIL/Naxta).
This is a very pilot action in Libya. Support from the DEU could be very helpful in the future
(participation of EU representatives in some public meetings would strengthen the credibility
of CIL)
