    (2014) Odero, Edwins
    For more than a decade, human resource, organizational and institutional developments have become indispensable dimensions of Namibia’s socio economic development agenda, particularly of her system-wide financial performance. This study was set out to explore and establish the human resource, organizational and institutional development challenges facing the Municipality of Karibib within the context of financial performance. The central argument of the study is that human resource, organizational and institutional development is in theory and practice, a means to improving local governance and provision of high quality public services that citizen’s value. Adopting an exploratory case study design, the study triangulated both secondary and primary sources of data. Primary data was collected using self –completing questionnaire and interview schedule tools covering 105 employees .Semi structured interviews also solicited views from senior officers and managers in the Municipality of Karibib. These primary sources were complemented with relevant secondary data from the organization investigated. The study result shows that the Municipality of Karibib’s human resource, organizational and institutional development policies has influenced the strategic direction of financial performance policies of the local government. Major human resource, organizational and institutional development challenges manifest three-dimensionally as policy, task organization and performance motivation induced. Addressing the human resource, organizational and institutional developments challenges has enormous strategic and financial performance implications for policy makers in the Municipality due to its reliance on external donors for funding.
