• Have 4 Technical Working Groups to focus on Impact with all components participating
Factors Associated With Cooperation
• Good relationships between key individuals• Shared importance & holistic thinking of
results• Willingness to compromise• Co-location• Clearly defined leader• USAID vision for one ZIHP• Focus on same client/institution
Factors Associated With Unrealized Cooperation
• Parties could not agree• Failure of mechanism to resolve conflict• Immediate gain of participation not clear• Misperception and poor communication• Different degrees of importance• Big egos and personality clashes
How Do We Work With Other Partners ?
• MOU signed by 15 Cooperating Partners
• One Hour Friday Cooperating Partner/GRZ Meeting
• Quarterly Health Sector Steering Committee Meetings
• Bi Annual Consultations between CPs and GRZ
• Ad hoc Meetings on Specific Topics
How...
• Technical Groups (Expanded HIV/AID Theme Group, Malaria Coordination Group, etc.)
• ZAMCAM - Quarterly meeting of all CAs - Issue Focused
• Special Relation with Japan - Common Agenda
Key Issues for the Future
• Hard-ware vs. Soft-ware• Human Resource Development• Food Security Issues• Appropriate Engagement with MOH/CBOH• Where to Target• How do we approach Scale-Up• How best to strengthen NGOs• Future of Basket Funding
Summary
• Need to have balance of technical and system strengthening but this is an Art
• A strong bilateral helps in supporting and targeting central CAs.
• USAID must play an active leadership role in CA coordination
• Personalities often drive collaboration
