- context:
- The Programme had a holistic approach to respond to the issues encountered in the garment and textile sector which was prioritised by the government. However, during the implementation the country saw conflict, COVID-19, delisting from AGOA leading to a loss of privileged access to the important US market, while also dealing with restructuring of ministries and turnover of key government officials, which affected institutional memory.
As a result, this means that the Programme design should have taken into account how this would influence the priorities of the government and adjusted the implementation timelines to factor in the multiple emerging priorities of the government.
- description:
- Policy development takes a long time, and programming should include sufficient time buffers for activities aiming to achieve policy change. Ethiopia has witnessed many difficulties during the Programme’s implementation including governmental restructuring and turnover of government officials. As these difficulties are likely to reoccur, the Programme needs to take this into account and ensure that efforts involving policy change take the need for more time into account.
- administrative_issues:
- The Programme implementation should have taken into account how emerging issues would influence government priorities and adjusted its timeline accordingly.
