challenges:

The presence of high-level officials in the technical groups limits their effectiveness because very operational issues are not discussed in-depth and lower-level official might not feel comfortable to express clearly their concerns or proposals.

success:

The setting up of structures that put together different stakeholders fosters beneficial dynamics for policy development because it allows for the sharing of resources and experiences, the development of professional connections and networking and serves better the needs of social partners

context:

In the intervention countries, the governance bodies are represented by a Technical Coordination Committee (TCC) and a Political Coordination Committee (PCC), except in Tunisia were a single structure "the National Steering Committee (NSC) was set up. All these bodies are mainly composed by high level officials.

description:

Social dialogue processes are appreciated and considered very beneficial but in order to achieve better effectiveness they should be more structured and separate decision-making level and operational level. The setting up of sectoral sub-groups whose conclusions feed into the discussions at political level might produce more relevant results.
