- comments:
- ILO design teams of RBSA projects
- challenges:
- RBSA project implementation where ILO lacks in-country representation in the UN Country Team (UNCT) and vis-à-vis the tripartite constituents
- success:
- Physical presence in the UNCT facilitates access of the ILO to joint UN programming, which is proofed as an emerging funding source for ILO programming.
- context:
- The implementation of RBSA projects in countries with ILO residency vs. non-resident status

- RBSA projects in countries with ILO residency vs. non-resident status
DWTs and ILO country offices can significantly support RBSA projects where the ILO is a “non-resident” agency, as experienced in the Central African Republic. While this support proved essential for enhancing the project implementation’s effectiveness, it faces its limitations. The remote support cannot replace ILO’s resident status with in-country representation in the UN Country Team (UNCT) and vis-à-vis the tripartite constituents. Learning from Somalia shows that physical presence in the UNCT facilitates access of the ILO to joint UN programming, which is proofed as an emerging funding source for ILO programming. Ultimately, the likelihood of RBSA seed funding contributing to a growing ILO project portfolio where approaches of RBSA projects can be replicated or upscaled seem higher where the ILO is a resident agency that is active in the UNCT.

- DWCTs and ILO country offices can significantly support RBSA projects where the ILO is a “non-resident” agency, as experienced in the Central African Republic where ILO technical experts supported the project remotely and through project visits.
