description:

This evaluation uncovered strong evidence that the management structure in place for implementing a project has a direct impact on its effectiveness and efficiency. Specifically, the level of decentralization of the MCB Project was not appropriate for operations in an environment as complex as Haiti’s. The constantly evolving political and social situations in Haiti require a sound understanding of the national context and sufficient flexibility for rapid decision-making and changes to planned interventions. The ILO not having a country office with full delegation of authority in Haiti has caused several implementation delays and miscommunications issues within the project team also affected the quality of communication with key national partners. More specifically, the language barriers between the San José office and the Haiti project team seems to be the cause of a number of administrative and operational delays that occurred through the process.
