Canadian Governance Support Office: Capacity Building in Good Governance
 |
At the request of the Afghan Government, the Canadian International Development Agency (CIDA) and the Department of Foreign Affairs and International Trade of Canada (DFAIT) are contributing over 3 years to a CANADEM project enabling the deployment of senior governance experts (Technical Advisors) to advise various Afghan ministries. The Canadian Government provides the strategic direction, in particular which Afghan ministries will receive governance experts, while CANADEM-CGSO provides the operational direction, such as which individuals are deployed and how they are managed and supported in the field. To do this, CANADEM has mounted a Kabul-based support office called the Canadian Governance Support Office (CGSO), or the Governance Office for short. |
