Guidance note: Political economy analysis and value for money in infrastructure

This work was carried out under the Infrastructure and Cities for Economic Development (ICED) facility.

ICED supported DFID country offices, central teams and ODA-spending Other Government Departments to deliver DFID’s Economic Development Strategy by scaling up programming and investment in infrastructure and cities. It operated between February 2016 and July 2019.

The goal of this guidance note is to ensure that DFID advisers and service providers put interventions in their political context to improve value for money (VFM) in infrastructure programming.

The guidance shows DFID programme managers and implementing partners how to capture ongoing political economy analysis (PEA) systematically and integrate PEA into programming so that projects can identify and resolve political economy challenges and take action to improve VFM.
