comments:
- Donor and ILO
challenges:
- There is a danger that the project becomes personalized and focused too much on activities rather than outcomes if no advisory body is in place.
success:
- An advisory body can contribute to increase ownership among constituents.
context:
- In the Project Document the establishment of a Project Advisory Committee was foreseen, this was later changed to a Programme Advisory Committee covering more projects.
description:
A project advisory or steering committee is needed especially for complex projects. An important lesson learned from the LM policy project is that there is a need for a body to oversee and advise during project implementation. This to avoid that a project becomes personalized and to secure higher level of ownership among constituents and other stakeholders. The relevance and outcomes of a project will be strengthened when such a mechanism is in place. It is strongly recommended to have a steering committee that meets regularly; overseeing and advising the individual project to give political guidance and also contributing to creating a local ownership to the intervention.
administrative_issues:
- If the structure of the project management is changed during the lifetime of a project, it should be secured that advisory bodies are in place at any time.
