- Targeted users/Beneficiaries: National Statistical Offices, key stakeholders and institutions, social partners.
- challenges:
- In a few countries the level of stakeholder participation and engagement was constrained by such factors as the level of available resources, a low degree of commitment or tripartite consensus and a lack of a cooperative environment. These factors should likely have been given greater weight in the choice of pilot countries, and more thorough consultations and needs assessments should have been carried out.
- success:
- Those countries where project implementation was
smoothest were characterized by active involvment and close collaboration with key stakeholders and institutions, high technical capacities for producing statistics and good cooperation among the social partners.
Capacity building was an objective of the project, and several of the pilot countries with low capacity appreciated the support of the ILO through the MAP project to improve their statistics. Where this was the case, the other factors of a good enabling envirnoment were even more important.
- context:
- The contexts and state of the economic development of the pilot countries varied greatly and had an impact on their abilities to provide complementary technical capacity or funding to the implementation of MAP activities or their follow-up. Several countries required considerable support to collect data and raise institutional capacity, while others did not.
- description:
- Several factors, including: solid political and constituent commitment, institutional capacity, and availability of relevant statistics at the outset of the process were important contributors to an enabling environment that facilitated the successful implementation and enhanced constituent ownership of the decent work indicators and Profiles in the pilot countries.
This lesson learned links to the Specific Objective 1 of the Project National partners strengthen their capacity to self-monitor and self-assess progress towards decent work, particularly Result 1: In the pilot countries decent work indicators are identified in consultation with governments and national partners and statistics are produced and analysed in line with national decent work strategies and ILO Decent Work Country Programmes.
