Comparing horizontal vs. vertical
modelIn relation to the horizontal model, the vertical one tends toproduce:
Quicker implementations,
Higher homogeneous routine,
Higher level of transparency, because the federal level is more
sensitive to that issue than the subnational levels, More stable staff.
However, the vertical model tends to produce:
Administrative conflict with the subnational levels,
Implementation of concurrent programmes, especially by theaffluent states and municipalities. Therefore, producingredundancy and resource waste,
Limit in the programme implementation in some areas due tolack of cooperation with the state or municipal authority.

Challenges
Inter-sectorial programs are easy to proclaim, butnot so easy to implement
Legal frameworks related to agreements between
the federal level and sub-national levels is notvery consistent
Big municipal role helps to reduce politicaltensions but can overload small municipalities
with a lot responsibilities When the federal level has strong role on funding
the policy, sub-national actors tend to be lessenthusiastic on funding
7/30/2019 SSl-CCT: Country Presentation_Brazil
18/19
Lessons
Stronger contribution to the municipal level
tends to improve the quality of the program
Beneficiaries need open channels for
accessing the program authorities
Vertical and horizontal coordination are key
activities for good performance
Leadership matters
