13. 13 Search for Common Ground (SFCG) produced 5 episodes of soap operas integrating PNB messages, and an MoU has been signed for the integration of a PNB character line into the dramas. A 15 - min soap has been produced by SFCG but not yet put to use Roadshows with the ACC Commissioner were carried out in Makeni , Kenema and Kono. A participatory theatre script had been approved but wasn’t used. Story - telling with the Cowfoot Prince proved too expensive, but the ‘Message of the Month’ strategy was used for two months. Patrick highlighted the opportunities presen ted by having a determined ACC leadership, willing public, regional offices, financial resource and relatively capacitated and committed human resources. However , he also pointed out there are still skills gaps among the staff (especially in relation to writing skills) , that there was a need to strengthen the existing relationship with the Comms/PR wings of local/district councils, and that financial resources are slow to come through. He emphasis ed expediting the training of staff in necessary skills areas , providing mentorship to staff , facilitating meetings with Restless Development and SABI, and smoothing the approval process. There was a lively discussion af ter the presentation: some CSO partners were critical of the weak decentralisation of communications activities and continuing shortages of some products . In response, Patrick highlighted the importance of localising endorsements so that district personal ities endorse messages at district level . He stated that it was his wish to cascade the funding to district level but that slow approvals and procurement meant that funds were sometimes limited. Patrick, and CSO partners, all emphasised the use of local la nguages. Session Sixteen : t raining for journalists Whitsun presented the training for journalists that is being planned. Fifteen journalists will be offered training in investigative techniques, comprising the five existing embedded radio journalists; fi ve nominated by ACC and five by the Sierra Leone Association of Journalists (SLAJ). Training will start in May and trainees will be mentored and encouraged to write articles and/or produce content for radio. Session Seventeen : addressing communications an d data needs The purpose of this session was to maximise c omm unication s opportunities in each district . Participants broke up into District groups and updated their District Sustainability Plans in relation to communications and outreach activities. Session Eighteen : extending beyond the district, Hub and Spoke activities The purpose of this session was to identify activities to maximise the impact of Hub and Spokes work over the next six months, to share and learn lessons and to identify actions beyo nd Dec ember 20 18
9. 9 Figure 3 : SOP for MDA Engag e ment , HQ to District This was followed by a plenary discussion where issues relating to MDAs and their engagement with PNB were debated. Key themes : MDA engag e ment : Includ e the Accountability Forum in the ACC budget so that MDAs are publicly accountable to citizens on a regular basis . Encourag e HQ IMCs to work more closely with regional IMCs Make funding available for regional TWGs and work to strengthen their impact and usefulness. MDAs to view A ccountability F orums channel s for them to report to the public, not the ACC. Crucial to ensure that AFs remain an ongoing activity post 2018 ACC recognises the usefulness of both TWGs and Accountability Forums but notes the budgetary implications of including th em as regular activities. The ACC is hopeful that some provision will be made to keep TWGs and AFs alive On the basis of discussions, District partners t hen returned to their groups to update their plans.

8. 8 P rioritis ing the develop ment of strong linkages with radio stations for dissemination of PNB messages. H olding regular TWG and Accountability Forum meetings with follow up . Focusing strongly on joint outreach over the next few months, and on the 515 phone number. After questions and discussion, groups met again in their districts and transferre d their ideas to their District sustainability plan templates. Day One, Sessions Six, Seven and Eight: partners for sustainability The Purpose of Session Six (discuss actual/potential partners and their roles) was to strengthen linkages with existing partners and generate ideas for new ones The Purpose of Session Seven (present two key actions for engaging new partners) was to stimulate ideas fo r new partners and different ways of engaging with them. The Purpose of Session Eight (working by district on the sustainability plans) was to add new partners to the plan outlines based on ideas and discussion from plenary. Participants were also asked t o identify two actions that they would carry out during week beginning 23 rd April. There was much lively discussion about potential and actual partners. Key Themes : Partners Importance of District Councils and traditional authorities/chiefdom structures. Chiefs can promote PNB in their different areas. It was suggested that it could be helpful to invite one or two District Council officials from each district to the next Learning and Sharing meeting. Importance of religious authorities and inter - religiou s councils, who can promote PNB messages during sermons and Friday prayers. Importance of influential pressure groups, such as the okada (motor bike) riders and market women in urban areas. Need to strengthen activities with the media Some PNB partners a re already engaging with some of these partners, but all recognised the need to strengthen their interactions and obtain clear buy - in to working with PNB. After lively discussion, participants returned to their District working groups to update their sus tainability plans. During the break after this session, one member of each group was requested to stay at the table with the draft plan while others visited other districts to learn more about other’s i deas . Day One, Sessions Nine, Ten and Eleven: building the MDAs The purpose of Session s Nine , Ten and Eleven was to identify actions to strengthen and maintain MDA improvements after December 2018, to share ideas and to update District Sustainability Plans accordingly. Edita and Martin presented the SOP governing MDA and IMC engagement between HQs and the District offices.
18. 18 for blind or partially sighted people Use of jingles and songs Radio drama IEC materials in Braille For people with physical disabilities Choosing disability friendly venues Establish ing MOUs with leadership structures or unions Day Three, Session Three: introduction to the Judiciary on Ko bo Tools Martin gave a short presentation on how questions about the judiciary would be handled on Kobo Tools . 7 The judiciary is a separate component and will not be integrated with the rest of the questions. Day Three, Session Four: piloting tablets fo r public use Martin described how the use of tablet computers in public places was to be piloted , in order to enable citizens to report and to sensitise the public to the PNB programme. 8 They will be protected by a steel cage to prevent theft and reduce tampering , and will be permanently connected to a power socket in the wall . Next to the tablets posters and information on PNB and information from the anti - corruption commission can be displayed (Information stand) Participants discussed where best to l ocate the tablets – a bank, district offices and/or the ACC were some ideas – and which districts would pilot the tablets. Makeni, Bo and Kenema were finally selected. The tablets will be rolled out over the next month. 7 Slides are in Annex 4. A one - day detailed training session on the revised version of Kobo tools took place on Friday 20 th April, for all Bo and Kenema animators and the two CSO coordinators 8 Slides are in Annex 4
17. 17 Helen explained that t he surveys will focus principally on behaviour changes among citizens (in refusing to pay bribe s) and among service delivery officials (in ceasing to ask for bribes) 5 . Each CSO will select their 15 strongest animators, who will be trained to administer the survey to 25 people each. There will be 3 rounds of surveys in May, July and October. Martin explained how the questions would be framed in Kobo Tools , focusing on Health, Education and Police sectors. An additional question will ask if the citizen feels that the government is more likely to act on bribery than a year ago. 6 Day Three, Session Tw o: improving access for Persons with Disabilities The aim of this session was to improve access to the PNB for persons with disabilities. The PNB is not a disability programme per se but we are required to ensure that we make it as straightforward as poss ible for disabled groups to attend meetings, to understand content and to re port. One way of ensuring that people with disabilities are included in meetings is to inform al l relevant organisations about upcoming meetings. Support g roups can often arra n ge transport, physical help (for those who have physical challenges) and signage (in the case of those with partial or complete hearing loss). Many people with disabilities are entitled to free health care, so it is important that they understand what PNB i s trying to do and how they can benefit. The PNB programme will collect data on people with disabilities in reporting in the rollout of the modified Kobo Tools. Districts reported on the types of disability that they have in their areas, and how they wil l address improving access. Highlights of these are reported below: Forms of Disability: all districts reported the presence of four main groups of people with disabilities: War Wounded and Amputees Blind Polio Victims Deaf or partial hearing In relat ion to being able to communicate with different groups, districts highlighted the use of: for those with complete or partial hearing loss Sign Language , Use of cartoons Use of visual IEC materials Video clips 5 Slides are in Annex 4 6 Slides are in Annex 4
4. 4 Intro duction The third P ay N o B ribe (PNB) partners’ Learning and Sharing meeting was held in Bo at the Bo Pa s t o r al Centre on the 17 th and 18 th April, 2018 .

16. 16 Day Two, Session 24: finalising the plans The purpose of this session was to finalise District Sust ainability Plans by completing implementation responsibilities and dates. PNB partners went back to their District groups to complete this task. They took photos of their plans, and the flipcharts were taken back to Freetown to be written up as Word file s. Conclusions of the Meeting and Implementation of the Plans Clear action s were identified by PNB partners in relation to sustainability and a timeline for implementation. Actions include: Strengthening of collaboration and synergies including with non - PNB partners with similar aims and objectives. Shifting PNB reporting focus from app to 515 phone number for sustainability Strengthening of communications and outreach activities building collaboration with radio, press and other media to engage diffe rent groups of citizens. Strengthened circulation and publication of success stories. Exploration of existing ACC and CSO budgets to see where PNB activities can be funded in future. Integration of activities into the programmes of others. Strengthening approaches to MDAs and IMCs. These actions will be monitored regularly by Coffey over the remaining months of the PNB programme. Day Three : Further Issues As noted above, a further half day was added to the meeting in order to address iss ues outstanding from the Annual Review and from Kobo Tools. These were: introduction to the mini - perception surveys identification of ideas for improving access to PNB for persons with disabilities; introduction to the Judiciary on Pay No Bribe Kobo Tools ; and d iscussion of pilot of tablets in Bo and Makeni Day Three, Session One : mini perceptions surveys Helen Appleton and Martin Simonsen gave a presentation about the mini perceptions surveys which will be carried out between May and October 2018 . The surveys are designe d to provide additional qualitative information to feed into the Programme Completion Review in November 2018.
14. 14 Groups discussed their Hub and Spokes activities to date and each group then presented three points in plenary: what has gone well; what has not worked so well and one post - December 2018 action. Hub and Spoke successes and challenges A mong things that had gone well, districts highlighted Successful engagements with MDAs in some ‘spoke’ districts Widespread interest from members of the public Engagement s with chiefs, r eligious Leaders, teachers, p olice, other CSOs, schools, health worke rs and y outh group s. Engagements with District Council leadership (District Chairperson and Chief Administrator). In all cases there was increased reporting from the spoke districts after the outreach had taken place. Among the challenges to Hub and Spoke work, PNB partners highlighted: Limited time to carry out all the planned activities. Geography: the size of some districts (e.g. Koinadugu) means that covering the whole district is difficult In some cases, MDAs were unwilling to participate in radi o programmes . Post December 2018 actions included: Increasing the use of radio programmes in spoke districts Sensitising the public through the use of IEC materials. Working with rulers and faith - based organisations who can continue to disseminate messages. Session Nineteen: updating the plans to include Hub and Spoke activities The purpose of this session was to include actions in the District Sustainability Plans t hat will continue to spread PNB messages up to and beyond December 2018 Participants broke up into District groups and updated their District Sustainability Plans in relation to Hub and Spoke activities. Session s Twenty and Twenty - One : the challenges and how to address The purpose of these sessions was to ensure that challenges are brought out in the open and to identify ideas for addressing them , and to ensure that challenges and mitigating actions are factored into district sustainability plans. The se ssion began with a plenary discussion where a number of questions were raised in relation to the sustainability of the PNB. Key points were : Commitment of PNB partners after December 2018? Commitment of MDAs after December 2018?
12. 12 There are still c omplaints by citizens that they don’t see any changes in the behaviour of service offi cials , despite submitting reports: Citizens want to see more investigations and sanctions, and they want to know how reports are used. Citizens’ confidence in PNB systems needs to be built. There appear to be particularly high lev els of police corruption in Koinadugu Moi spoke briefly on the importance of animators sharing with citizens the information that they have in relation to success stories and improvements in the behaviour of service delivery officials. Animators have thes e stories , but many citizens are still saying that they don’t know about improvements: t here are, for example, cases of clinics and schools posting notices of free services, even when the national MDA has not issued a formal Service Charter. Moi emphasised the importance of CSO Coordinators sharing messages and success stories with all animators, and animators sharing the information onwards to citizens. Further discussion in plenary underlined the points made above , particularly that citizens don’t always feel confident about reporting and are still worried about whether or not reporting is anonymous. Day Two: Sessions Fifteen : strengthening communications and the media The purpose of these sessions was to broaden the discussion of outreach t hrough improved communications, especially at district level. The session focused on what had been achieved in the areas of communications, Public Education and Outreach. Patrick Sandi ( Deputy Director , Public Education and Outreach, ACC ), introduced the session with an update on the Communications Operations Plan (December 2017 - March 2018) . He made the following points: A new Operations Plan is required for April to December: it will focus on increasing reporting. The election p eriod has been very disru ptive in terms of outreach engagement – the media and many citizens have been more focused on election activities than on PNB activities. A 60 - secon d jingle has been produced and broadcast nationwide from March 2018 ; and a PNB theme tune/song has been produced and is being played/popularized nationwide through radio stations. 4 A total of 106 mixed format panel discussions were aired between Nov 17 and Mar 18 , and 5 endorsements from well - known people were obtained and broad cast through social media . Banners have been distributed and billboards erected (although stickers have yet to be affixed) , along with wristbands, stickers and other materials There have been a number of radio products A 15 min radio drama has been produced and aired nationwide ; 4 PNB partners resolved to learn the song
15. 15 How to manage the future relationship with radio stations with regards to PNB? How to sustain ACC – CSO relationship ? How to manage the integration of PNB with other activities ? Whom to contact in the case of a problem with 515 line? Will the Call Centre continue? Recommendations were also made by some partners: MDAs should include PNB activities in their future budgets The ACC should fund some PNB activities post December 2018 People should try to source funds from other donor partners for PNB program Participan ts then returned to their District groups to ensure that responses to challenges were factored into their plans . Day Two, Session Twenty - Two: looking at the plans The District groups displayed their District PNB Sustainability Plans, and participants wal ked around to read and ask questions. Day Two, Session Twenty - Three: What Happens Next The purpose of this session was to begin the process of implementation. Each group presented one action that they would carry out during week beginning 23 rd April , which were as follows . Actions for week beginning 23 rd April Bo District Hold a j oint meeting with new partners especially SABI, Traditional Authorities and Council to discuss sustainability plans . Date: 24/4/2018 K enema District Participate in a CSO platform to initiate the process of identifying critical partners . Date: 24/4/2018 Kono District Conduct a Hub and Spoke outreach visit to Falaba . Date: 30/4/2018 Bombali District Hold a meeting to m ap out how to engage and strengthen new partners . Date: 25/4/2018 Western Area Hold a m eeting with the executive of inter - religious council to integrate PNB messaging in their sermon s . Date: 25/4/2018
11. 11 Strong focus on new partners Strong focus on integrating PNB messaging into like - minded institutions Focusing on capacity building of IMCs Focusing on joint targeting of MDAs and strengthening their responses Day Two : Sessions Thirteen and Fourteen: improving the integrity of data collection The purpose of these session s was to strengthen the quality of PNB data. Martin gave a presentation 3 highlighting the reasons why accurate data collection is critical for PNB, w hat it demonstrates and how it can be improved. He briefly introduced the revised Kobo Tools app, which is designed to reduce errors by: simplifying reporting capturing bas i c data automatically (date, username) f ocus ing on the data that is needed capturing data for the Logframe and maintain ing data that is useful for Coordinators embedding automatic calculations and confirmations P oints on integrity of data collection : A ccurate data collection helps PNB partners to ch eck/verify what they are doing, and to identify what is going well and what not so well. T he data collected demonstrates how events like Christmas and elections affect animator data collection and citizens’ willingness to report. In order to facilitate more reports, the Call Centre hours hav e been extended from 8am to 8pm on weekdays, and from 9am to 1pm on Saturday. In order to gain an idea about how many citizens are reporting for themselves, PNB data specialists have imposed a ‘no facilitation’ policy from March until the end of April . The revised version of Kobo Tools will be rolled out to animators before the beginning of May. The revised Kobo tools questions have been harmonised with ACC data collection so that reports can be accurately collate d . Whitsun then shared information from rec ent monitoring visits and asked animators for their feedback : Animator Feedback on data The critical importance of animators promoting the 515 number , particularly as citizens would rather not engage directly with the app. Many citizens feel that the call centre process takes too long , however, and there are too many questions. Use of local languages is important. There has been confusion among animators over the difference between teaching people to report themselves and sharin g information about PNB, Service Charters and reporting. It is the responsibility of CSO Coordinators to ensure that animators are reporting accurately. 3 See Annex 4
