description:

ILO Moldova’s permanent dialogue through trustful relations with key institutions is plays an important role to mobilise State budget resources to support the implementation of the National Employment Strategy. However, a direct lobbying with crucial decision-making ministries/institutions (Ministry of Economy, Prime Minister Office…) could help reverse the trends towards reduced resources to Ministry of Labour and Social Protection and National Employment Agency. The lack of resources (to job creation and labour inclusion) and budget cuts (in comparison to resources requested) are a threat to the sustainability of job creation measures. (Due to the budgetary constraints, the MLSP lacked the resources to implement all of the eleven priority measures listed in the National Employment Strategy. The LEP project has allowed to implement several of those measures, including outreach measures). MLSP is interested in analysing the results of the activation measures implemented including the ealier LEP supported intervention. Thus, capturing the longer-term effects of LEP interventions could be identified as a best practice as the results of an impact analysis could contribute to improve the efficiency of LEP in terms of the number of job creation.The best practice identified is that the project is the direct support of the project to the National Employment Policy Formulation, which increased ILO’s leverage in terms of advocacy to increase the State budget allocation to MLSP. This best practice however has a limitation as the project involvement into policy formulation has not allowed to yield more State resources. This indicates the need for stronger, strategic advocacy with key State decision-makers.
