other resources were mainly channelled into “priority sectors” of education,<br />

health, water, agriculture, rural roads, the judiciary and land. Spending on these<br />

areas was considered to have greater impact on poverty reduction. However, the<br />

resources were not sufficient, even for the “priority sectors” to lead to appreciable<br />

change over the three years. This could be attributed to the fact that poverty is<br />

multi-dimensional. Attainment of poverty reduction targets, therefore, requires<br />

much more resources and the involvement of other sectors and actors. The<br />

NSGRP adopts an approach, which recognises the contribution of all sectors<br />

towards growth and poverty reduction. This approach stresses the cross-sector<br />

collaboration and inter-sector linkages and synergies. The strategy banks on<br />

increased commitment on the part of domestic stakeholders and increased<br />

assistance from the development partners in the medium term for its success.<br />

2.2 Goals of the NSGRP<br />

Generally the main goals of the NSGRP are clustered under three broad<br />

categories, namely<br />

• Cluster 1: Growth and reduction of income poverty;<br />

• Cluster 2: Improvement of quality of life and social well being; and<br />

• Cluster 3: Good governance and accountability<br />

Under these broad clusters there are fourteen goals. Relevant to this project are<br />

the following goals:<br />

Under cluster 1:<br />

• Improving food availability and accessibility at household level, with<br />

particular focus on food security needs of children and women, in urban<br />

and rural areas.<br />

• Reducing income poverty of both men and women in rural areas<br />

Under cluster 2:<br />

• Improved health and well-being of all children, women, especially<br />

vulnerable groups through reducing infant, child and maternal mortality<br />

and malnutrition and increased prevention and treatment of HIV/AIDS.<br />
