description:

Process matters and is context specific. Striking a balance between the development of project concepts at HQ and their elaboration at the field level is tricky, but for the project under review, the multi-country integrated approach did not work particularly well in the Ethiopian context. By way of example, the time allocated to the project was insufficient given what it took to bring national partners fully on board, and the time that MoFED needed to prepare detailed comments on the NEPS background paper. Nuances in the perception of this project as HQ-driven could be picked up from what national partners shared, but it was also clear that ILO SRO did everything they could to ensure partners' views were integrated to the extent possible in the project's adaptation.
