- food for thought & lessons learnt -

GIZ Inclusive Violence and Crime Prevention (VCP) Programme
VPA Meeting, Cape Town, 07.09.2016
Slide 1
“All people in South Africa are and feel safe”
(National Development Plan)
Active youth for safer Closing the
communities: implementation gap:
Youth resilience and active Integration of community
citizenship with a specific safety & violence and crime
focus on gender prevention into policies and

safer communities with
a focus on violence and
crime prevention are
improved at local level
Collaborative thinking and action:

Vision > SaferSpaces aims to become:
(1) South Africa’s key (2) a central network for (3) an effective support
knowledge hub practitioners to SA’s safety agenda
• to find information • to showcase them & their work • to inform about relevant news,
• to share knowledge & • to share their publications, processes, events…
resources research etc. • as knowledge hub for e.g. new
‘National Centre for Safety,
• to learn from each other • to announce events
Crime and Violence Prevention’
• to connect with each other
Slide 3
“Small is beautiful but big is necessary” – WHY though?
• SDGs call for eradicating global poverty and sustainable development
(economic, social and environmental)
Global challenges require broad-impact solutions
• Stagnating budget (OECD DAC-ODA: >= 0.32% of GNI since 2000)
more effective use of available funds to achieve broad impact
‘Islands of excellence’ ‘Broad-impact approaches’

Scaling-up: WHAT are we talking about?
• ‘Scaling-up’ = increasing measures/interventions proportionally
both in terms of funding and impact/capacities
Macro-level
Policy development
vertical
horizontal Micro-level horizontal

HOW can we achieve scaling-up?
• Analysis of over 25 GIZ projects and programmes
Eight factors identified as particularly relevant for successful scaling up
(1) THINK BIG: the vision of (2) Ownership and involving key
scaling up as an integral part of stakeholders
programme planning
• What is to be scaled up to what degree? • What are the needs / interests of
• What capacities do (potential) key partners?
stakeholders have? • Will the partners assume a leadership
• What is the planned scaling-up role in the scaling-up process?
strategy? • How can key actors be involved?
• What financing options are available?

Conclusion: Key issues / challenges to bear in mind
• Vertical & horizontal up-scaling > and how those interlink
• Capacities, processes and infrastructure for scaling-up
• Incentives for & oversight of up-scaling
• Quality assurance > packaging, standards, manuals
• Monitoring & evaluation > impact & uptake
• Bridging gaps > sectoral, funding & academia/practice
