- challenges:
- Reorganisation of institutions (SLS under Min. of Economy), ensuring newly appointed officials are knowledgeable, aware and supportive of the project results and its validation.
- success:
- Convincing results obtained by the project so far. Strong appreciation and support of the project by its key partners.
- context:
- The political factor (change of government in the case of Ukraine) have put on hold the legislative validation (synonym to sustainability in this case) of several project outputs and are thus required extra advocacy efforts from ILO to obtain support from recently appointed officials.
- description:
- As much as the process and expert delivery of activities have ensured the production of quality outputs, the project experience has shown that without institutional or legislative validation (such as the approval of National Action Plan to Fight UDW or the transposition of the EU Framework Directive 89/391/EEC through the national framework law on OSH) the enforcement and sustainability of results remains limited.
While the actions levers are never quite under of the control or direct decision of the project (e.g. government change, ministry-level validation…), there are however ways for the project to advocate, or at least raise awareness on the conditions required for its overall objective to be fulfilled. Thus, a lesson for future similar intervention is that, in between a direct leverage and limited influence, there is room to developing sophisticated advocacy strategy to serve converting outputs (securing outputs through institutionalisation) into sustainable outcomes.
