comments:
The main beneficiaries are MPWTC staff but also this extends to R4D staff as well. There are considerable mutual benefits to the development and implementation of a shared capacity development and strategic plan. The R4D CTA is currently planning a series of workshops and engagements to map out the capacity development approach under R4D-SP.
challenges:
No major challenges at this stage of implementation but will need to be carefully monitored over the coming months as R4D moves into a new phase.
success:
There have been some good practical examples of R4D staff engaging and embedding themselves within MPWTC.
context:
The main issue is that many R4D consultants do not have direct or immediate counterparts. This would make the capacity development situation more effective as teams would be able to plan and schedule work and structure interventions and activities accordingly.
description:
Capacity development is a popular area of focus, particularly for DFAT funded programs. However, without adequate structure and/or guidance or a detailed understanding of what is required, capacity building interventions are bound to have limited success. R4D has sought to engage and promote capacity development but opportunities have been somewhat limited to date. That said, there are some useful practical examples where R4D advisers have embedded themselves into the Ministry and have established sound working relationships with respective work units.
administrative_issues:
ILO to continue promotion of the capacity development approach.
