Project Management

challenges:

The first milestone of the project was to form an inter ministerial committee (including constituents) to oversee the implementation of the LFS and prepare for the policy development process. Nevertheless, the committee was not formed until very late into the project, due to internal political issues at the Iraqi side.

success:

N/A

context:

While the delays faced by the project are a main factor behind weak implementation of the policy component of the project, engaging constituents early on in the process would have better involved constituents and higher-level policy makers, and led a better rate of implementation in the policy component of the project.

description:

The weak level of engagement with ILO constituents early on in the project, as well as the significant delays coming from an exogenous set of challenges, meant that ILO constituents and policy makers were not involved in most of this project's activities, which ultimately translated into a weak implementation of the policy component of the project and led to a weaker-than-expected level of national ownership from higher level policy makers and constituents.
