Abstract

The main objective of this study was to develop a framework for the effective functionality of LED initiatives in local governments (LGs) in Namibia (a developing country) and elsewhere globally. The effectiveness of LED initiatives represents informative and integrated understanding, intervention strategies, capital funds, and a framework aimed at MDGs and SDGs which combine environmental, economic, social, institutional, and political aspects by identifying their interlinkages in realizing the SDGs in LGs. The purpose of this study is to develop a framework for the effective functionality of LED initiatives in HNTC. The theoretical framework has been drawn out to make its research propositions within an active application framework of stakeholders theory. The study used a stakeholders theory (ST) which provides a framework for exploring the processes of effective interventions of stakeholders in a management sense, and the questionnaires, interview guide, and focus group discussions (FGDs) were designed in relation to the objectives of this study. The data was collected through mixed method research (MMR) and was analyzed by using MSE (for quantitative data) and ATLAS. ti (for qualitative data) which provided relevant analysis for the data. The framework developed in this study indicates that the LED process is dominated or influenced by both internal and external stakeholders regarding intervention strategies to ‘’deal with’’ toward sustainable measurements and minimal standards for a developed conceptual framework for LED initiative.

Abstract

The core objective of this study was to assess various interventions guiding the effective implementation of local economic development (LED) initiatives for local governments (LGs) of the Ohangwena region (OhR) in Namibia and elsewhere worldwide. The Acts, Theories, Economic Policies, and Procedures are designed for sustainable measurements of MDGs in comprehending the SDGs in LGs toward the interlinkages of economic, social, institutional, political, and environmental features. Therefore, the study assessed various theories, acts, policies, and procedures that provide a framework for exploring the processes of effective interventions by LGs in a management sense. A questionnaire and an interview guide were used and designed according to the objectives of this study. The data was collected through mixed-method research (MMR) and analyzed using Microsoft Excel (MSE) for quantitative data, and inductive thematic analysis (ITA) for qualitative data, which provided relevant analysis for the data. The results of the study on Theories 89%, Acts 91,2%, Policies, Procedures, and Regulation 91,3% would effectively bolster LED management through evidence-based interventions guided by internal and external stakeholders to confirm the effective interventions for best practices of LED initiatives toward sustainable measurements and minimal standards of various interventions for effective LED initiatives in LGs. The article assessed the economic policies, procedures, theories, acts, and institutions needed to generate and sustain economic growth and development. It argues that the effectiveness of LED initiatives represents an informative and integrated understanding of interventions on policies, procedures, acts, theories, and institutional reforms needed in broad local areas of LGs.
