About the Program

Solomon Islands-Australia Partnership for Governance commenced in January 2022 and is an AUD $35.8 million investment where Australia partners with the Solomon Islands Government (SIG) to support its critical priorities over four years. The goal is to build economic resilience and promote policies and practices for sustainable economic recovery and growth. Australia’s objective for this partnership is to strengthen accountable and inclusive governance in partnership with SIG and other stakeholders. The program will contribute to the goal through four end-of-program outcomes (EOPOs):

• EOPO1: SIG has strengthened public financial management and oversight.
• EOPO2: SIG has improved domestic revenue generation and improved capability in targeted areas.
• EOPO3: SIG has strengthened inclusive democratic processes and expanded opportunities for stakeholder engagement in public policy dialogue.
• EOPO4: The program generates strengthened relationships between SIG and the Government of Australia.
