The RTO is a unit that comprises motivated local experts and technical persons who aim at strengthening local governance, enhance service delivery, and mainstream planned interventions. RTOs also aim at mobilizing public and civil local actors to collectively address local needs based on available resources. They are strongly connected to various actors on the level of communities, local authorities, public service providers, and int’l & national organizations.
