tional research is needed if the MSP model is to be successfully replicated elsewhere. Specifically, further context-specific studies are needed on the optimal
balance between non-state actors (including the private sector) and government
representatives in the platforms, as these case studies appear to suggest that an
overrepresentation of either could hinder the ability to achieve policy change.
End-line evaluation and follow-up studies will also be required to determine
whether the degree and manner of the East African MSPs’ embeddedness in local
government structures was sufficient to maintain their financial sustainability
over time while preserving their independence and participatory approach.
