At present, there are few other elements of good government that attract so much attention as decentralisation. This basically entails a reorganisation of political, financial and administrative relations between central and local decision-making levels, with a view to transferring greater competencies to act and make decisions at lower levels in line with the principle of subsidiarity. It is hoped that this will generate better and more efficient public services, strengthen local economic and employment structures and increase opportunities for civil society to participate.The success of decentralisation processes depends on the existence of adequate financial and human resources, which is why InWEnt, with its organisational and human resources development instruments is involved in providing further training for public servants in many countries. The parallel political dialogue is every bit as important to us, in order to counter reservations and overcome resistance to the reallocation of political power and authority.Within the context of decentralisation, and the concomitant modernisation of the administration, we also find E-government: the dissemination of information and access to administrative services including opportunities for political participation offered via the internet.
