Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation The Project is preparing enhanced TVET curriculum in Myanmar, Uruguay and Viet Nam and has posted OSH awareness materials online to capacitate young workers who seek to engage meaningfully on OSH prevention, and has finalized a package of OSH awareness materials for young workers in multiple sectors. All of these are adaptable to multiple countries. The Project also published an OSH Technical Brief and Action Plan in April 2018 to increase awareness and to foster action on OSH for youth. The work of the Project in highlighting the issue of young worker vulnerability during the 2017 OSH World Congress led Canada, the next World Congress host, to request that the ILO present another SafeYouth@Work Congress in Toronto in 2020. The Project also drove linkages between 2018 World Day on Safety and Health at Work and 2018 World Day for Child Labor, to clarify that actions to address OSH for young workers can also reduce the global number of children in hazardous child labour, and vice versa. The work of the Project has led Indonesia and Argentina to formally engage with young workers including the implementation of a national OSH action plan for young workers and by including young workers at the table for meetings of the national OSH tripartite council.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation The Management Procedure Guidelines applicable to USDOL-funded projects, and the need for donor approval of work plans prior to project implementation, make it extremely challenging to build joint work plans involving multiple projects. Notwithstanding, the Project works hard to integrate and harmonize its country level work with other OSH and OSH-related projects. There is a joint project consultative committee (PCC) coordinating OSH project activities in Myanmar, to which all OSH and related projects contribute. The Project has also found opportunities to use its products and share its messages with other ILO projects on labour inspection, OSH, child labour, global supply chains, statistics and skills, to name a few. In addition, the Project has conducted outreach to relevant non-ILO project activities and taken advantage of available synergies (sharing resources, expertise and project objectives) to maximize long term impact. In Myanmar the project is working with international NGOs to strengthen the OSH content of national TVET curricula. In the Philippines, the Project is working with the Boy Scouts of the Philippines to carry its message to 2.5 million young scouts. In Uruguay and Cote d’Ivoire, the Project is working with training institutions to ensure that its activities have the broadest possible impact. And in Colombia, the Project is building upon an earlier labour rights project to take advantage of existing structures and networks. These efforts will continue, and as new opportunities arise to increase the impact of the Project they will receive close attention.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation The Project uses a mix of national and international consultants, mindful that engaging an international consultant often means that the particular expertise derived from the engagement is destined to leave the country. It is not the case that an international consultant always delivers greater long term project impact. Recruitment policies and procedures for engaging consultants are not project-specific but rather set by ILO and donor rules. Project management is closely involved in the selection of every consultant and service provider to ensure an informed choice is made between using an international or local consultant, and that ILO and USDOL rules are followed, value for money is appropriate, and guarantees of successful task completion are in place. However, even the most stringent selection requirements cannot guarantee quality of deliverables to the satisfaction of the ILO.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation The donor declined the ILO’s suggestion to relocate the Project’s CTA and management team to Bangkok. The Project has made extensive use of Branch staff to deliver trainings, review legal and policy documents, improve TORs, and refine Project strategy and reporting. The Project has also worked closely with ILO field specialists, and colleagues in Fundamentals, Evaluation, Labour Law, Skills, Research, Cabinet and Youth Employment, to improve its work product and focus its actions. In addition, the Project established a Project Advisory Committee for the purpose of drawing upon a broad range of ILO HQ expertise in assessing progress and impact. These steps will continue.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation The Project provides training directly to young workers through OSH-enhanced TVET curriculum in four countries (Viet Nam, Myanmar, Cote D’Ivoire and Uruguay). The Project also provides OSH training and awareness to young agricultural workers in Myanmar by increasing the OSH capacity of agricultural extension agents, and to young agricultural workers in Colombia through direct training and capacity building. The Project conducted an extensive global OSH awareness campaign as part of World Day on Safety and Health at Work, including the publication of the first-ever ILO technical brief on OSH for young workers and the development of an Action Plan on OSH for young workers. These efforts were replicated and amplified at country level through national OSH fora, workshops, and awareness initiatives. The Project is conducting research on the incidence of occupational injury to young workers in three countries (expected results: Viet Nam-Dec 2018, Myanmar-July 2019 and the Philippines-Jan 2019). The Project is also preparing a multi-country study in Latin America on OSH for young workers (expected results-July 2019), including what is known about the incidence of young worker injury.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation Following the approval of the No-Cost Extension this year, and the related Project restructuring, the CMEP and its tools, forms, targets and indicators will undergo a thorough revamp, with the support of the donor. This will include a review of activity assessment methodology and the use of available metrics.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation The Project objective is to drive improved performance in national OSH systems, working through improved OSH data/information, better OSH policy/laws, enhanced OSH technical capacity, and targeted OSH awareness initiatives. The Project work to improve OSH data and information is non-regulatory, and involves independent research or re-analysis of existing OSH databases. Much of the work on technical capacity is non-regulatory and involves increasing OSH skills and abilities of a wide range of stakeholders, other than OSH inspectors. All OSH awareness activities are non-regulatory. The Project is by design not a community engagement project; rather, it is a national systems project built on the rationale that this approach is more effective at delivering sustainable impact. That said, the project works with targeted communities of OSH stakeholders to improve their awareness and engagement – young workers; TVET students and teachers; agricultural extension agents; health ministry, labour statistics and social security officials; youth organizations; and legislators. It is not practical nor feasible for the project to develop work with new stakeholders such as public works and construction permitting officials, on top of the engagements to which it is already committed. Public works and construction permitting are often highly sensitive areas in which to attempt structural reforms, and the project lacks relevant experience in seeking changes in public works and procurement tendering/contracting modalities.
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation Some TOT trainings conducted by the Project did not lead to the anticipated number of multiplier trainings. The MTE Recommendation is that the Project seek written partner commitments, including financial commitments, before providing such training, and that such commitments ‘be reflected in an implementation agreement, MOU or contract’ with the relevant partner. The Project always obtains commitments from partners to conduct follow-on training, but on occasion resource constraints, shifting priorities, staff relocations, and other intervening factors prevent these commitments from being met. In some cases where a partner’s commitment or follow-up was inadequate, the Project decided no longer to work with the partner (Philippines TVET authority, Myanmar employer association, Viet Nam education officials). However in no cases has the Project sought to work with a partner whose mission is not aligned with Project objectives, or which does not have the resources to drive sustainability. Of necessity when working with partners such as small trade unions and youth organizations, expectations of follow-up on the partner’s side must be realistic. The Project will continue to insist on clear commitments from relevant partners to multiply any trainings or awareness-building workshops, to the fullest extent practicable (Myanmar TVET curriculum revision includes partner commitments to disseminate OSH training; Philippines OSHC capacity training includes partner commitment to revise course offerings).
Building a generation of safe and healthy workers: Safe & Healthy Youth - Midterm Evaluation In preparing the Project Revision/No-Cost Extension Request earlier this year, the Project proposed to remove three out of the five participating countries from the Project due to implementation challenges and delays (Mongolia, Ecuador and Cote D’Ivoire). The donor agreed with the decision to eliminate Mongolia and Ecuador, but elected to keep Cote D’Ivoire in the Project. The donor also requested that the Project add two new participating countries – Argentina and Colombia. Consequently, the Project remains at three Pilot countries and five Participating countries, at the donor’s request.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Further action to undertake: • The sustainability and impact strategy will be reviewed in 2020 following a decision about the GAC funding.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken in response to the recommendation: • The TRIANGLE in ASEAN offices in Malaysia and Viet Nam, including staffing, were phased out as of 1 April 2019 and 1 March 2019 respectively. Further, one of the three regional Administrative Assistant positions were phased out in late 2018. • The funding for the Senior Programme Manager position, which initially was funded 100% under the DFAT budget, is now cost-shared on a 50% basis with the GAC investment for the Oct 2018-June 2019 period. • Discussions with the ILO/UN Women project Safe and Fair on options for cost-sharing of MRCs is completed for four of the six countries. This is further discussed under recommendation 11 below. • DFAT has agreed to the front-loading suggestion which reallocates a total of AUD 900,000 from year 10 to be equally distributed over year 5, 6 and 7.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Ongoing, as a regular feature of programme implementation.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken in response to the recommendation: • The recruitment of the M&E officer took longer than anticipated, but the lack of dedicated M&E capacity has been mitigated by hiring of M&E expertise under an excol contract. The new M&E officer joined the programme as of 15 July 2019. • Further restructuring of regional and national staff beyond what is discussed in response to recommendation 6, will be considered as soon as there are further clarity on the issue of funding beyond the end of the current GAC funded project (June 2020). Further action to undertake: • In line with the GAC Grant Arrangement, TRIANGLE in ASEAN needs to undergo an external, final evaluation. The TORs for this exercise have been developed and are now waiting final approval from the two donors. Given that a comprehensive mid-term evaluation was completed by March 2019, the final evaluation will be more forward looking than a traditional final evaluation. The objective of this evaluation will be to guide TRIANGLE in ASEAN programme strategy for remaining five years of implementation. It will involve two parts: 1. Identify and document lessons learned and good practices from the programme’s initial years of implementation that should be prioritized going forward, and 2. Identify, prioritize and draft programme strategies for two future scenarios: a. GAC continues its support to the programme through a third phase or another donor steps in with a similar budget which allows spending to be maintained more or less at par with current levels for the 2020-2025 period; and b. a reduced programme with DFAT as the only donor for 2021-2025.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken in response to the recommendation : • Added to the 2020 work plan Further action to undertake: • Changes to the ToC and M&E plan, including streamlining of activities and indicators will be considered as plans for post-June 2020 are conceptualized by the forward-looking evaluation planned for second semester of 2019.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken in response to the recommendation by date: • A revised version of the WEGES including a table of interventions for actioning the WEGES (i.e. the action plan) was prepared and submitted to DFAT and GAC on 28 February 2019 as an annex to the 2018 Annual Technical Report. • GAC submitted a minor comment on the WEGES on 18 March 2019. After the comment was addressed, GAC had no further comments to the WEGES. • DFAT did not submit any comments to the WEGES. • As noted above, WEGES, as other cross-cutting strategies, is considered a living document and might be subject to updates in the years to come.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken in response to the recommendation by February 2019: • In immediate response to this recommendation, the product list, which among others contains the agreed research projects, was revised and a total of six publications removed. The revised product list was submitted to DFAT and GAC for approval together with the Annual Technical Progress Report on 28 February 2019. • Discussions have been initiated with DFAT on the suggestion to cancled the mid-line and to do the end-line in 2023. A final decision still needs to be made.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken in response to the recommendation: • The next RPAC will be held in Bangkok on 27 September 2019, the day after AFML (25-26 September). • The SPM will continue to keep close coordination with ACMW and ASEC via email and meetings. Further, with the transfer of the P3 position from Jakarta to Bangkok in Marhc 2019, the SPM will increase missions to Jakarta for face-to-face meetings with ASEC as and when needed.
TRIANGLE in ASEAN: Safe and Fair Labour Migration - Midterm Cluster Evaluation Action undertaken and required: • While preliminary discussions have been held, further discussions with DFAT and GAC will be scheduled on suitable materials to be developed for their respective audiences.

Promote the socio-economic integration of vulnerable children and youth through a multi-faceted approach in Haiti - Final Evaluation Even though youth was not consulted in the planning of the new project that ILO is currently implementing in Haiti together with UNICEF on prevention and erradication of domestic child labour (2017-2020 financed by the Government of Canada), it will actively engage youth, boys and girls, in several actions that the project has planned, for example for World day against Child Labour and in SCREAM activities.
Support GSP+ beneficiary countries to effectively implement International Labour Standards and comply with reporting obligations - Final evaluation NORMES has been developing projects to address difficulties related to serious failure to implement fundamental conventions as identified by the supervisory bodies and reporting, hence a thematic approach has so far been secondary in the choice of beneficiary countries in its successive projects. Where possible, NORMES intends to address specific topics under its project. In the framework of the “Trade for decent Work” project action in Africa, focus on the thematic of child labour is a recurrent element. In addition, NORMES has collaborated with technical departments such as ENTERPRISE, LABADMIN/OSH and GREEN JOBS to add specific components related to labour administration, corporate social responsibility and greening jobs in each country in its work plans for 2022.
Support GSP+ beneficiary countries to effectively implement International Labour Standards and comply with reporting obligations - Final evaluation NORMES and the European Commission jointly elaborated and signed the “Trade for Decent Work” project, which is implemented on basis of yearly work plans in target countries selected by a joint steering committee. This modality of implementation enables flexibility and adaptability. It proved very useful during the pandemic outbreak in 2020 and following a political turmoil in a country in 2021 to be able to adapt to evolving circumstances and new priorities.
Support GSP+ beneficiary countries to effectively implement International Labour Standards and comply with reporting obligations - Final evaluation NORMES and the European Commission jointly elaborated and signed the “Trade for decent Work” project, which includes one full-time project manager based in HQ, responsible for the overall supervision of the project, for the regular interaction with the donor, and the coordination of the reporting. Additionally, the project ensures that in each beneficiary country at least a full-time local staff is recruited to ensure adequate interaction with the tripartite constituents and the EU delegation, coordination with other EU, ILO or UN-funded projects, visibility of the action, and detailed reporting. Moreover, where relevant, a technical staff is also recruited to ensure the quality of the support on specific issues (i.e. in Bangladesh and in Myanmar).
Support GSP+ beneficiary countries to effectively implement International Labour Standards and comply with reporting obligations - Final evaluation The “Trade for decent Work” project started in 2019 with a yearly allocation of € 1M and was implemented originally in three beneficiary countries, which represented an increase of 30 per cent per country compared to previous EU-funded projects implemented by NORMES. As of 2021, the project received a total amount of € 6M and is operating in 11 countries. The yearly work plans enable to adapt the funding to support specific local stakeholders’ initiatives and/or new identified needs in relation to ILS.
Support GSP+ beneficiary countries to effectively implement International Labour Standards and comply with reporting obligations - Final evaluation The “Trade for decent Work” project started in three Asian countries in 2019. It kept with a regional focus in 2021, opening to three additional countries in Asia. Thus, the project ensures collaboration with two Decent Work teams (ILO/Bangkok and ILO/Delhi). In addition, the project opened to the African region in 2021 in 5 countries selected jointly with the donor. The preparatory work was done in collaboration with two Decent Work teams in the region (ILO/Dakar and ILO/Pretoria), which now support the implementation.
Support GSP+ beneficiary countries to effectively implement International Labour Standards and comply with reporting obligations - Final evaluation NORMES ensured sustainability of the project results in a number of countries by building on the work and achievements of GLO/15/27/EUR under the umbrella of the “Trade for Decent Work” project. NORMES recommended the inclusion of Cabo Verde, Mongolia and Pakistan in the latter project in 2021 with a view to continue to support the countries in consolidating their compliance with reporting obligations and replying to the issues raised by the supervisory bodies on the implementation of Fundamental Conventions. In addition to this systematic output, in Cabo Verde, the new support builds on an inspection plan on gender equality and discrimination initiated under GLO/15/27/EUR to develop a labour inspection and information campaign in the tourism sector and potentially in other sectors. In Mongolia, the new assistance further uses and disseminates the materials produced in local language under GLO/15/27/EUR. Likewise, in Pakistan the assistance includes continued support to the Provincial Government of Baluchistan to finalise the process of labour law revision and to get its legislative framework in place. The modelling of the legislative framework will speed up the country’s efforts to mainstream the provisions of the ILS into the labour laws in other provinces.
Global action to improve the recruitment framework of labour migration - Final Evaluation The Office partially agrees with this recommendation. The Office will continue to step up its coordination, communication, leadership, and visibility efforts with constituents, UN Agencies, and other partners, while asserting leadership within national and regional migration networks. Nevertheless, the Office also notes that the evaluation commended the project for being able to convene a multitude of migration and labour migration actors to ensure a relevant response to the challenges of ensuring fair recruitment.

An integrated model for the elimination of the worst forms of child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnut harvesting in Türkiye - Midterm Evaluation The strategic intervention model developed by the project for hazelnut harvesting presents a good practice, which is adaptable to other crop groups and regions where seasonal agricultural work exists. The model is adopted by another ILO project covering other crop groups like cotton, fresh fruit, apricot, and citrus fruits in different regions of Turkey. Together with this project, national meetings were organized to inform participants about the importance of the strategic intervention model and to mobilise local/national and foreign resources for expansion, replication of ILO/MoLSS intervention modality in different crop groups.
An integrated model for the elimination of the worst forms of child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnut harvesting in Türkiye - Midterm Evaluation Under the ongoing project, the mapping study, which aims to map past and existing interventions to identify what is needed for sustainable action against child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnuts has been started in May 2023 to enhance national and local capacity to remove children from the WFCL in seasonal hazelnut harvesting in Türkiye. Moreover, in the extension period, a post-project impact assessment will be conducted for the 2013-2023 period for policy purposes to point out lessons learned and the challenges that should be focused on to identify what is needed for sustainable action against child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnuts and for better implementation and development of new policies.
An integrated model for the elimination of the worst forms of child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnut harvesting in Türkiye - Midterm Evaluation The informative meetings on the elimination of child labour for public institutions were held in all project provinces. 271 local public staff were trained on child labour, its causes and effects, global and national statistics, child labour in agriculture, and combating child labour; creating awareness on the issue; and contribute to inter-institutional coordination. The project will continue to contribute to overall policy advocacy and implementation, expansion of the knowledge base, and improvement of institutional capacity for the elimination of child labour in seasonal agriculture. At the micro level, the project will continue to strengthen the central and local capacity of the MoLSS and relevant institutions as well as local authorities for the elimination of the Worst Forms of Child Labour (WFCL) in seasonal agriculture. Moreover, ILO-FAO e-learning modules on the elimination of child labour in agriculture have been completed and launched in Turkish with 7 complementary modules focusing on Turkish context for the use of trainers. The e-learning course is also available for self-learners who are interested in the topic. In addition, in the extension period, the project will strength necessary links between e-METİP and e-school registries based on the previous achievements. Existing database on seasonal agricultural workers and their children will be improved together with MoLSS in order to strengthen child labour monitoring mechanism through compiling existing databases at national and local level with the establishment of necessary links. Furthermore, an exit/handover strategy and action plan will be formulated with stakeholders by the end of the first year of the new phase (2024). The exit strategy will be covering sustainability aspects, implementation tools and stakeholder take-over in order to ensure ownership after the project completion.
An integrated model for the elimination of the worst forms of child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnut harvesting in Türkiye - Midterm Evaluation In the extension period project will create Children/Youth-Friendly Spaces/Information Points in target provinces that provide educational counseling such as providing information on formal and distance education opportunities, university examinations, career opportunities for children aged 14-18 besides serving as a psycho-social counseling point including topics such as children’s rights, early child marriages, OSH. The project mainstreamed gender aspects into its interventions and set very clear targets in terms of the percentage of girls and boys to benefit from education and referral services, as well as in terms of the number of mothers to benefit from the project. Gender-sensitive intervention model will continue to be applied to combat and prevent child labour to fulfil the rights of boys and girls, including the right to an education, a healthy childhood, protection from abuse and exploitation, rest and recreation.
An integrated model for the elimination of the worst forms of child labour in seasonal agriculture in hazelnut harvesting in Türkiye - Midterm Evaluation A well-structured in-depth child monitoring mechanism has been established with the respective implementing partner in the city of origin (sending province) to monitor the attendance of seasonal agricultural families’ children to formal education. Based on the lessons learned from previous years’ implementations, some improvements have been made and mitigation measures have been taken by assigning more staff through implementing partner to ensure coordination with relevant staff at the provincial directorates and other relevant stakeholders at the local level.

Better Factories Cambodia, Better Work Indonesia, and Better Work Vietnam Programmes - Midterm cluster evaluation "Better Work has always been committed to measuring success, progress towards objectives, and long-term impact using a rigorous approach. Since its establishment, the programme has relied on robust monitoring and evaluation indicators, and on academic partnerships to independently evaluate its impact on workers and enterprises. The new strategy pushes the programme to think beyond progress and impact at the workplace and challenges Better Work to increase its focus on contributing to strengthening institutions at the national and global levels. Better Work will build on its experience in monitoring, evaluating and measuring impact while creating new approaches to partnership. The programme will remain committed to systematically collecting gender-disaggregated data in its work with other ILO and IFC units in order to foster gender equality, non-discrimination, and inclusion at the enterprise and policy levels. A robust framework of success will combine qualitative and quantitative indicators to accompany the new strategy. This will support the programme to measure progress in challenging areas such as to build stronger, more capable national institutions and governance echanisms that support garment factories in generating decent jobs and promoting innovation. Other measurement approaches will be needed to understand Better Work’s contributions to facilitate a more just transition to new technologies, addressing environmental and demographic trends, measuring the impact of knowledge and data to inform policy reforms, and understanding the impact of the programme’s indirect reach through partnerships."

Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation NORMES and project staff are collaborating closely with the ILO country teams and other ILO projects to engage with the Government at the highest level and policy makers (Members of Parliament, officials of other institutions, magistrates). Regular exchanges with EC-Brussels and the EU Delegation enable an informed and coherent approach to tackle issues of common interest with the Government.
Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation These important questions are to be discussed at the next NORMES GTT meeting which is to take place in September 2021. The provisional Agenda includes a discussion dedicated to the following subject: "ILS and DC : follow up to findings of independent evaluations of NORMES projects.
Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation While NORMES continues to collaborate with ILO country offices and DWT for the elaboration and implementation of projects, it also collaborates with the EC (Brussels) and the EU Delegations in potential beneficiary countries during the elaboration of the action and during the implementation, so that the country-level partnership is strengthened. This strategy enables joint monitoring of progress and adaptation to new situations and priorities.
Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation Specific materials on the ILO-EU partnership are developed by PARDEV (factsheet, dashboard) and ILO/Brussels, which includes information on the EU support to ILS related matters. NORMES has a long history of collaboration with EC's TRADE, EMP and INTPA and officials of these DGs are fully informed of ILO normative action. The three DGs are part of the "Trade related Dialogue" between the two orhganisations. More specifically, in the framework of the "Trade for Decent Work" project, NORMES collaborated with these DGs and EU Delegations in potential beneficiary countries during the elaboration of the action and will maintain this collaboration throughout the implementation, so that the they fully understand/support the strategy and are able to monitor progress and achievements.
Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation Following the experience of past projects, NORMES and the European Commission jointly elaborated and implemented the "Trade for Decent Work” project, which is implemented on basis of work plans in target countries adopted by a joint steering committee, which comprises ILO technical units led by NORMES and EC's DGs. This innovative operational mechanism values the collaboration between the two organisations regarding ILS and - at the same tme - enables flexibility and adaptability of the action by also providing for ad hoc support to specific needs arising in countries. This modality proved very useful to respond to the pandemic outbreak in 2020 by adapting the overall action to evolving circumstances and new priorities.
Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation In the framework of the “Trade for Decent Work” project's communication strategy, a dedicated webpage is developed for each of the country of intervention. These webpages include factsheets, press releases, publications and videos. See example: https://www.ilo.org/hanoi/Informationresources/Publicinformation/Videos/WCMS_778440/lang--en/index.htm The global webpage is in place since the start of the project. A video presentation of the project is in production and should include reference to key achievements during the years of implementation.
Sustaining Strengthened National Capacities to Improve International Labour Standards Compliance and Reporting in Relevant European Union Trading Partners - Final Evaluation NORMES and the European Commission jointly elaborated and signed the “Trade for Decent Work” project that materializes the strong support of the EU to the ILO work regarding ILS. The project operates within a framework including a Global Facility providing global initiatives in the area of ILS and ad hoc support to specific needs arising in partner countries; and a Country-focused Facility supporting each year a number of target countries. This project, launched in 2019, consolidates in a single framework the collaboration between the ILO and the EC on ILS, and supports the now institutionalised “Trade related dialogue” between the two organisations.

Sida-ILO Partnership Programme, 2022 – 2025  SCI will continue to promote MSD to the DWT teams and country offices as it has recently done with through regional trainings with DWT-Abidjan/Dakar for francophone Africa in Bamako in May 2024 and will do in September 2024 on request of the director of DWT-Beirut in coordination with the DWT Cairo for the MENA (North Africa and Arab States) region.  SCI will happily advocate for a junior staff member to be based in the field, should a donor be interested in funding such a position. It is recognised that this would bring staff closer to the projects and reduce cost base, however, it can be difficult to find a donor to fund such a staff member.  SCI will continue to push the message of flexible design with donors and will incorporate recent research findings on this specific theme to support more effective design and inception phases into those discussions. An opportunity for this will be the Global DCED seminar in October 2024 which will have a range of donor representatives .  SCI has already defined joint entry points with GEDI (Moldova) and JT (Ghana and Lebanon) and has worked in other field collaborations with HDPN (Mali) and will continue to explore further collaboration opportunities in the future – as related to the actions in recommendation
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme, 2022 – 2025  Programme components will engage in more active project monitoring with a view toward adaptive management. This will be done through individual component reviews and a collective joint review. This review will help components leverage good practices in existing components with a view toward improving measurement and promoting the programme. The overall partnership will report back on key learnings for the remainder of the partnership.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme, 2022 – 2025 The Office-wide strategy and Action plan was endorsed by the Governing Body ad a two-year implementation plan has been agreed, which allowed the finalisation of planning of Sida Partnership resources into ensure alignment with priorities. Uncertainties regarding organisational and staffing that arrangements have been addressed. These developments permit to address the financial delivery point raised by the evaluation report. In Colombia the project is fostering the adaptation and dissemination of the work done so far to inform policies and programs, leveraging synergies with other projects, particularly the IKI JET project. Roll out of collaborative efforts with other components are being designed, particularly with GEDI, SCI and the A/P CRISIS Resource mobilisation efforts are being scaled up through support for the development of concept notes and intervention models in areas in including just energy transition, climate change adaptation and decent work, finance for a just transition, integration of just transition in climate plans. Such support also include assistance to field offices in addition to collaboration across different policy departments.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme, 2022 – 2025  Continued collaboration with the Action Programme on Just Transitions is planned for 2024 and foreseen for 2025. In 2024 joint activities will be taking place related to the launch and roll out of the Gender, equality and inclusion for a just transition in climate action – A policy guide, as well as the development of an interactive webpage to promote its use. The joint elaboration of training material is foreseen to accompany the use of the guide as well as coordination in representation of COP29. In addition, it is also anticipated to engage in resource mobilization efforts to leverage the roll out of the guide.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme, 2022 – 2025  Indeed, this is what the programme is planning to continue to promote the Nexus internally and externally as highlighted in the logframe and workplan for 2024-2025. Among other, a regional nexus workshop in partnership with the Nexus Academy, and with the participation of constituents, UN RCOs, UNCT and funding partners, including Sida, will be organised in September 2024 in Amman to promote the role of Decent work across the HDPN. It will focus on employment and social protection programming in the Nexus. Similar initiatives will be organised in 2025 in other regions.  The programme in finalising the conceptual narrative on Decent Work in the Nexus that will serve as internal and external guidance on the role of decent work agenda in the Nexus, as well as the social partners and social dialogue mechanisms.  The Programme is also supporting the adherence of the ILO to the OECD DAC Recommendatios on the HDP Nexus. It will contribute to the institutionalisation of the Nexus within the ILO in general and through the Priority Action Programme on Crisis and Post-crisis
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme, 2022 – 2025 Responses to each point in Recommendation 1 are as follows:  To respond to the recommendation, the programme will have more structured standing bi-monthly meetings with rotating chair and a particular theme to explore each meeting.  In line with the recommendation, the components will continue to look for more collaboration opportunities. To help identify more collaboration opportunities across partnership themes, the programme has scheduled a workshop in September/October 2024 with the objective of identifying additional collaboration opportunities enhancing existing cooperations or developing new areas of joint work. - Following the recommendation, dedicated update meetings on the Partnership will be organised. Specific activities are organised in collaboration with ACTRAV and ACTEMP to reinforce constituent capacities to contribute to policy discussions at the national level on the different components.

Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation During the last two years, the TPRs have reported progress regarding ILO Conventions No 189 and No 190. Cross-cutting issues such as gender are comprehensively reported. Community intervention partners in source areas are in regular touch with migrant workers and their family members, but the purpose of this regular contact with migrant workers is neither to infer intervention effectiveness on the migration outcomes nor to review the extent to which programme participants made informed migration decisions. The partners data collection system is tracking the details of women referred for relevant and functional social protection and welfare schemes/services, vocational trainings etc. At the end of every quarter, the implementation partner is tracking and reporting, how many women referred, out of them how many benefited by the referral and value of resources mobilized as a result of such successful referrals. The programme is promoting referrals to such schemes/services, which are sensitive to the needs of target population.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation It is important to reiterate that the sectors of employment that ILO’s WIF programme deals with consist of domestic and garment work. The business models of these sectors are intrinsically linked to low incomes of workers. While a few employers do practice post-arrival orientation training for migrant women (e.g. Classic Fashion in Jordan), the recommendation assumes that employers and recruiters are interested in creating training space to enable migrant workers to negotiate better terms and uphold their rights, or that recruiters and/or governments have the means to organize post-arrival orientation. In practice when it is practiced, such orientation training tends to leaves no space for life skills or rights and instead develops subservience to the employer, and most employers, recruiters and governments don’t have the funds to fund such orientation. Such an intervention would therefore not be sustainable. Moreover, ILO is not in a position to leverage space for life skills in such contexts and its funding would end-up representing an unfair subsidy for certain employers compared to others with no guarantee that the training would empower women. Finally, there is a considerable risk that such practices may unintentionally raise recruitment costs across the sector and harm migrant workers.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation A new pilot may be considered in WIF2, relating to medical insurance of WMWs, conditional to involving multiple stakeholders and an actuary in the design process.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation Given the strategic role of worker centres as a unique space for women to gather and establish social connections that can enable practical collective action, the programme undertook consultations with the local communities surrounding the centres in Lebanon to review the relevance of the centres’ locations and improve migrant women’s involvement. During the second phase, the programme is focusing on a research strategy to follow migrant women trajectories from of origin countries to destination countries. Also during the second phase, WIF is supporting the development of Standard Operating Procedures to reinforce the grievance and complaint mechanism at the Ministry of Labour in Lebanon, and facilitate a referral mechanism linking MOL to complementary services provided by other government institutions and CSOs. The overall approach of the SOP takes into account restrictions facing live-in migrant domestic workers and WIF will explore tools to counter these restrictions once the SOPs and referral pathways are finalized.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation Accepted: The Work in Freedom (WIF) programme (phase 2), in agreement with local Government authorities, has been implementing pre-decision interventions meant for women in at least twenty districts in India, Nepal and Bangladesh. However, WIF has found that institutional settings such as those organized by Government are not very effective in empowering women. Given prevailing stigma on women’s work and mobility, women prefer to avoid involving themselves with public programmes that visibilize their intent to work or migrate. Instead, civil society organisations that focus on women’s rights, do it better (Lesson learned No. 37). In addition, while government pre-departure programmes promote general awareness raising, they tend to avoid practical content that enables women to negotiate better working and living conditions (Lesson learned No. 28). WIF therefore advocates for governments to leave space for gender-sensitive civil society organisations to organize empowering conversations on common working and living conditions of migrant women in destination locations.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation As deemed necessary, the programme in its second phase established long-term partnerships with all long term partners from phase 1. Besides, depending on scope of the intervention, the partnership agreements have been awarded for two years for all regional and local partners. For example, in areas from which women were migrating, the programme continued implementation agreements with all existing partners like CINI, Samarthan, SEWA, Pourakhi, ABC Nepal, WOREC, OKUP, Karmojibi Nari etc., likewise with regional partners like MFA, GAATW, etc.,
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation During the second phase, while selecting and finalizing the partnerships, the programme prioritized grassroots work and ensured that partners are renumerating community workers a living wage and wage equity in organizational hierarchy (low differential better). For example, the social workers in Nepal are renumerated monthly salaries as per the latest Labour Act of Nepal (minimum basic pay of NPR 13,450) in addition all other benefits as promulgated in the act are added to the base salary (basic pay, gratuity, provident fund, and one month festival bonus). Other benefits like leave, local travel and subsistence allowance are as per the rules and regulations of implementing partners
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation As relevant, the programme made two-year implementation agreements with all partners. While renewing partnerships, the programme will ensure that there is no or minimum gap between the implementation agreements.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation As per the evaluation policy, individual development cooperation (DC) projects have mandated evaluation requirements, so clubbing DC projects funds for a thematic evaluation will be difficult to justify the evaluation requirement of individual projects. Since most of the DC projects are included in DWCP, the evaluation of DWCP could consider a focused thematic evaluation of migration issues supported by the country programme.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation Circular 1/9 pertains to a classification of migrant workers defined by the Ministry of Labour of Lebanon. It distinguishes four categories of workers taking into consideration the maximum salary they can claim. Migrant domestic workers are listed in the fourth category, in other words the lowest in the pay scale. Reforming the content of the circular will be more effective once more crucial reforms are achieved, such as including domestic workers within the labour law, lifting the need to get employers approval for migrant domestic workers to change jobs and agreeing on a unified contract that dismantles some of the key provisions of the Kafala system. WIF in any case is already working along those lines.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation The programme’s theory of change in phase 2 supports contributing towards decent jobs in both source and destination countries.
Fair recruitment and decent work for women migrant workers in South Asia and the Middle East - Regional Component - Final Evaluation The programme has tailored its pre-decision interventions to the specific context of patriarchy and how women’s distress is socially appraised and mediated (lesson learned No.36). The programme’s partners therefore engage vulnerable women and girls in safe spaces during periods of the day that are specifically adapted to women’s daily routines and which deliberately differ from those of men. In order not to awaken and antagonize stereotypes of masculinity, the programme also engages with male participants through different settings such as house-to-house visits and courtyard meetings.
Closing the gender data gap on unpaid care and domestic work to support monitoring the 2030 Agenda - Final evaluation The modular approach to the design of the LFS is intended to address the sustainability of implementation at country level. The modules build on a ‘core’ LFS and provide options for countries to take up based on national priorities. This is carried through to the data collection software whereby the CSPro tool is built to integrate easily with the wider LFS CSPro tool. This has been the strategy and is still considered by STATISTICS to be a suitable approach to create some flexibility in implementation of labour force surveys. However, the pace of development of new content is planned to be reduced in coming years with a refocus on support for implementation of existing content.
Closing the gender data gap on unpaid care and domestic work to support monitoring the 2030 Agenda - Final evaluation The central focus of follow up actions is to embed the outputs of the project in the wider set of statistics guidance, tools capacity building and technical assistance activities as is embedded with the work to promote LFS implementation. In this context the ILO maintains strategic partnerships with multiple agencies on a regular basis. The most notable international organisations in this context are the World Bank, UNSD and UNWomen.
Closing the gender data gap on unpaid care and domestic work to support monitoring the 2030 Agenda - Final evaluation Resources are being sought through both TC and RB sources to retain staff required to support the roll-out of the guidance and tools. In addition, the work will be mainstreamed in wider technical assistance and capacity building activities to utilise existing statistical resources to promote implementation.

Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation The Office and department in particular have taken good note of the programme’s lessons learned and will take measures to be more agile in crisis and post crisis contexts including through building strategic partnerships. The department will also develop and implement in the short to medium term a roadmap to strengthen its capacity to support constituents in crisis and post crisis contexts, in particular, SOCPRO intends to 1/ develop a clear ILO positioning in terms of engagement in social protection in crisis and post crisis contexts in line with its mandate and comparative advantages, 2/ to support constituents build social protection system preparedness, 3/ to build staff capacity in technical areas pertaining to crisis and post crisis response including at the regional level.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation For future projects including disbursements of cash transfers to beneficiaries in crisis and post-crisis contexts, the department will seek to ensure that the no-cost-extension requested from donors includes sufficient time and resources to conduct independent follow-ups/checks of the programme.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation n/a
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation Income support component: the use of ICTs notably for registration and complaints mechanism in Ethiopia (web platform), raising awareness about social security in Cambodia (mobile app) and beneficiary registration in Indonesia (web platform), that were developed based on extensive tripartite consultations, will be able to be used for future schemes and programmes, if not directly, at least their functional analysis. The ILO has also developed and will further support the development of a service offer on the digital transformation of social protection as part of its Technical Support Facility. This will include data governance and management as part of a wider engagement on integrating and digitizing systems, ensuring data privacy and protection and the use of appropriate digital tools and applications for the expansion of coverage of social protection. OSH component: Use of ICT including social media is now a key mode of communication in OSH projects. That includes using social media platforms to deliver awareness raising and capacity building activities. Several VZF projects are also working on specific tools such as chatbots for greater engagement of workers on OSH issues. The GOPY app in Better Work Vietnam is another example that applies to issues beyond COVID 19. Having said that, some evaluations have suggested to have a balanced approach to use of ICT in capacity building (online mode of trainings in particular) to maintain effectiveness and reach of training. VZF and LABADMIN/OSH have taken note of these suggestions and working towards a balanced approach.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation This recommendation highlights the necessity to build social protection system preparedness and to continue ILO’s work in terms of expanding coverage to workers in the informal economy. A working paper on the role of the ILO in social protection in crisis and post-crisis contexts is under preparation (forthcoming Q1 2023) which will clarify the ILO’s role in terms of building preparedness of systems and it will also propose an implementation roadmap. The Global Accelerator for Jobs and Social Protection for Just Transitions, under the leadership of ILO, will also build tools, strategies and roadmaps to support countries which are actively engaged in the transition from the informal to the formal economy including through the extension of social protection coverage and comprehensiveness to workers in the informal economy. In some of the project countries, e.g. Madagascar, the COVID 19 risk assessment and advice was already extended to informal and/or micro and small enterprises. As VZF works with a supply chain approach, it addresses OSH issues among informal and other vulnerable workers in different sectors such as in agriculture sector. During the VZF strategy revision exercise (2023), approaches towards greater reach to informal sector will be explored.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation Income support component: The department conquers that project staffing at country level is crucial for the implementation of projects. Future projects’ staffing needs to be more carefully considered so as to not over burden existing staff. Furthermore, dedicated resources should be made available as relevant and possible within the foreseen budgetary, HR and operational constraints. Such support, could also be, like it was the case in Ethiopia, through an external consultant backstopping technically the project, in order to allow for the right expertise to be fully dedicated to implementation, monitoring and evaluation. OSH component: The ILO ensured that activities were delivered through existing Vision Zero Fund and Better Work teams on the ground. This enabled the project to benefit from existing relationships of trust to deliver sustainable results.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation Income support component: The Global Flagship Programme on Building Social Protection Floors for All provides a coherent framework for projects concerning social protection. The Theory of change, its indicator framework, log frame and risk register provide the basis for the common results framework for all projects under the Flagship programme. Further efforts will be deployed to disseminate these to ILO social protection Global Technical Team members for application in future projects. Furthermore, the Results Monitoring Tool developed by SOCPRO provides a tool to record and monitor results of individual projects. Efforts to increase its uptake are being undertaken. OSH component: The results framework of the project was aligned to the VZF global Theory of Change and the results framework. The progress was presented as part of Vision Zero Fund (VZF) progress reporting to its Steering Committee as well. In future projects with emergency response component, VZF will work in more detail the risk and sustainability aspects. Moreover, the essence of the recommendation will be considered during the revision of VZF strategy and results framework, scheduled to be done in 2023.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation Both VZF and Better Work integrated their interventions into ongoing COVID-19 interventions. Several initiatives such as risk assessment and response plans have been integrated in countries like Vietnam, Madagascar and Ethiopia. Initiatives such as including journalists in awareness generation and orientation, training constituents on use of virtual means for further trainings of their cadre have increased the likelihood to sustained attention to OSH emergencies and response related communication.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation The Office takes note of this recommendation and fully agrees that given the ILO’s core mandate of building sustainable, universal and comprehensive social protection systems, policy change and influence from ad-hoc emergency responses to long term system building should be more prominent in projects implemented in crisis and post-crisis contexts. The action points on Recommendation 1a provide further details regarding the results framework. An upcoming position paper on the role of the ILO concerning social protection in crisis and post crisis contexts will further highlight this position.
Protecting garment sector workers: occupational safety and health and income support in response to the COVID-19 pandemic - Final evaluation Income support component: For upcoming projects, including in crisis and post crisis contexts, the Office is developing a roadmap and a strategy to create a strong buy-in from national stakeholders in close collaboration with the constituents and partners to continue the activities especially linked with the longer-term policy and sustainability of the programme and to uphold and strengthen the systems created. In respect of the OSH component, great efforts were made to embed learnings in national institutions and in enterprises, and to assist national governments and enterprises to develop long/term emergency preparedness plans to address future crises.

Inclusive Economic Recovery through Sustainable Enterprises in the Informal Economies of Fiji, Palau, Tonga, and Vanuatu - Final joint evaluation Informal employment and the benefits of formalization are topics that are constantly raised in our interactions with governments or constituents more broadly. For example, in Solomon Islands, an Action Plan for Formalization is currently being drafted and will be validated soon. Informality is also an important element in the context of discussions with tripartite partners on social protection action plans and national employment policies.
Inclusive Economic Recovery through Sustainable Enterprises in the Informal Economies of Fiji, Palau, Tonga, and Vanuatu - Final joint evaluation Project documents for CO-Suva projects are based on firm financial commitments and project managers are constantly seeking out to find complementary funding from other sources. CO-Suva makes sure that the project design remains flexible in this regard.
Inclusive Economic Recovery through Sustainable Enterprises in the Informal Economies of Fiji, Palau, Tonga, and Vanuatu - Final joint evaluation CO-Suva will put strong emphasis on monitoring and evaluation (M&E) in future projects. Also some emphasis has been put on timely M&E reporting in current projects and joint programmes.
Inclusive Economic Recovery through Sustainable Enterprises in the Informal Economies of Fiji, Palau, Tonga, and Vanuatu - Final joint evaluation CO-Suva is in the process of producing an entrepreneurship ecosystem analysis for vulnerable groups, which will include also an overview of BDS providers in the countries of the Pacific region, an assessment of their capacities and competencies as well as possible gaps. In addition, we carefully selected BDS providers in the Pacific, in our efforts to support countries through Start, Improve and Expand Your Business trainings. The information obtained will be used to produce the rating matrix and roster that is recommended.
Inclusive Economic Recovery through Sustainable Enterprises in the Informal Economies of Fiji, Palau, Tonga, and Vanuatu - Final joint evaluation CO-Suva has been trying to address the issue of lack of national consultants by working closely with other UN agencies to identify consultants and start building up a pool of consultants. CO-Suva is also in the process of recruiting staff that will be based in Vanuatu and Solomon Islands to support some of the recent projects, but the feasibility to have local staff depends on the amount of project funds available and is not an option for some of the smaller projects.
Inclusive Economic Recovery through Sustainable Enterprises in the Informal Economies of Fiji, Palau, Tonga, and Vanuatu - Final joint evaluation Since end of last year, the ILO through CO-Suva is part of two large-scale Joint UN Programmes funded by the SDG fund, which also include activities for the informal economy. In one of them, the ILO is the lead agency. As part of these Programmes, we work across boundaries of our agencies.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation A gender analysis has been planned (started 14th sept) to ensure that gender is mainstreamed throughout the project design in order to maximize FAIR’s contribution to gender equality and women’s empowerment going forward.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation The project will commission an M&E consultant to review the log-frame and indicators, focusing on evaluability, and propose a project monitoring plan, and support with data collection and capacity building of project team. Periodic reporting has been increased to 6 monthly as part of the MUL agreement (one yearly technical project report, and one intermediate flash report).
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation FAIR III is dedicated to implementing the ILO FRI strategy (global and Africa levels) with a focus on corridors which cover intra-regional migration in Africa and migration from Africa to the Middle east. FAIR project results have benefited from the amplifying function of the ILO’s new Knowledge Hub on Fair Recruitment, an online sharing platform launched in Q2 2022. In addition, FAIR and FRI results and know-how more broadly are promoted through several yearly knowledge events of the ITC-ILO, including the Academy on FPRW, the Academy on Labour Migration, online training programme on Fair Recruitment, as well as though collaborations with ILO partners and projects at country, regional and global levels throughout the year (e.g. at the start of FAIR II in Sept-22: ATUC conference for Arab States; training of USDOL officials on ILO’s approach to Fair Recruitment). One project outcome is dedicated to knowledge production and sharing, with resources planned for an implementation agreement with the ITC-ILO to manage the Fair Recruitment Hub.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation Ongoing dissemination of knowledge products through the amplifying means of the FRI online knowledge platform, ITC ILO training courses, FRI newsletter, and other ILO communications channels. Continued work with training centers and journalism schools has been integrated into the FAIR III project.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation While ILO and UN instruments on labour migration indeed cover the protection of migrant workers’ family members, currently, labour migration opportunities along most of the corridors that will be the focus of FAIR III are primarily temporary, and do not provide for migrating for employment with family in the short to medium term (eg, labour migration to Arab States, South Africa).
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation Going forward, collaboration with IOM for FAIR III is framed around an ILO-IOM Memorandum of Understanding and a joint workplan, in which fair recruitment has been selected as a priority area for collaboration with a focus on research, awareness raising and capacity building. The third phase of FAIR is deliberately built around cost-sharing of resources and has been set up as a multilateral donor (“MUL”) project, with a co-contribution from Italy of US900,000, to which an additional USD532,235 of ILO RB funds are added. Furthermore, there are no less than 10 ILO programmes (Accelerator lab 8.7, BRMM I and BRMM II, FAIRWAY, THAMM, SAMM, JLMP, JLMP priority, JLMP Action, FMM II, AGRIDOM), involved in cost-sharing of project outcomes.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation The project intends to lend more attention to monitoring working conditions beyond its existing areas of work with trade unions. FAIR II had piloted a worker-voice monitoring system to the used by PRAs, as part implementing their Code of Conduct (Philippines – Hong Kong). FAIR III will develop activities with government and PES, to encourage and facilitate such monitoring; and continue to encourage PRAs to do so (e.g., through adaptation of PRA toolkit for Nepal to other countries). The project will examine ways to build on earlier experiences involving labour inspectorates (such as with FAIR II project in Jordan), and on the ILO’s recent work on labour inspection also supported by FAIR II, in the countries of destination for FAIR III – namely Tunisia and South Africa.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation The ILO, through the third phase of FAIR, indeed intends to capitalize on results and experience in FAIR countries in S Asia and SE Asia, as well as in Tunisia, to continue to engage meaningfully and with impact with trade unions partners in countries of focus for FAIR III. One strategic approach of the project is to facilitate cooperation between trade unions at either end of a selected migration corridor, in order to engage TUs in effective actions to promote and ensure fair recruitment processes, by delivering quality and timely information and support, to prevent the occurrence of abuses to FPRW in the migration cycle and, if necessary, to access to complaints mechanisms and justice to migrant workers.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation Countries and corridors were selected for FAIR III on the basis of: ILO data and analysis (regional report on FR in Africa, 2021), FAIR II research (Cote d’Ivoire to Tunisia report, rapid research reports), technical consultation with ILO labour migration and FPRW specialists in Africa. Donor requests were also considered in the selection. Important to consider that data on migration flux is not readily available in particular in corridors to the Middle east from Africa. As specified in FAIR III prodoc, selection of destinations from Tunisia and from Ghana is to be informed by rapid analysis (done for Tunisia) and stakeholder consultations (planned for Ghana and Tunisia in Q4 2022). Regarding risk-mitigation: Most of the implementation of activities in FAIR III will be done at site of origin, which will minimize impacts should the selected destination not be possible, in keeping with the approach used in Nepal and in the Philippines.
Integrated Programme on Fair Recruitment (FAIR) - Phase II - Global and Hong Kong components - Final evaluation A) and B) already part of FAIR III design.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation On national level, the PWGs are the main vehicle for formal validation of METI’s outputs and findings. The dynamic element (see recommendation no. 2) ensures a certain expertise and knowledge-base of the working group which will support the implementation of METI’s country activities from their design till their final validation. - Measure 1: Increased effort will be made to include members of the working along the entire process, including in the selection process of external suppliers, whenever relevant. - Measure 2: In order to not overburden the members of the PWG, smaller task teams will be formed and tasked with providing advice for the development of specific activities over time. The task teams will report back to the full PWG which is also in charge of the final formal validation of outputs.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation The METI team carefully reviewed the suggested changes to the LogFrame and proposed respective amendments to the donor. Once an agreement has been reached with the donor, the new LogFrame will become part of the project documents via a formal amendment of the finding agreement. METI applies a twofold monitoring approach: Internally, team members record progress in the implementation in a shared spreadsheet. Externally, current values of all indicators are regularly submitted to the donor via the EC’s OPSYS. In addition, monthly catch-up meetings are held between the donor and the METI team.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation The METI team initiated a discussion with the donor (DG NEAR) to identify possible additional activities (including capacity development and policy dialogues) which could complement the current intervention logic. Once an agreement has been reached, a formal request for a no-cost extension will be submitted to the donor.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation a) Organize training courses on ITC tools: METI’s 1st regional training on “Trade and Employment” included several sessions on ITC tools. Due to budget constraints, further training on ITC tools cannot be offered in the current phase. However, based on the feedback received from workshop participants and other national stakeholders, further trainings on national level are suggested for a potential METI phase II. b) Organize on-job training during value chain assessment: Due to budget constraints, on-job training cannot be provided in the current project phase. However, such targeted trainings on VC analysis for technical specialists is suggested for a potential METI phase II. c) Expanding training activities to non-partner countries: In the current phase of METI, non-partner countries are benefitting from regional training and knowledge-sharing workshops. These efforts are suggested to be intensified during a potential no-cost extension and for a METI phase II. d) Consider regional venues of the events: METI’s forthcoming regional training and knowledge-sharing workshops are all intended to take place in the region. e) Keeping the discussion at the PWG level on-going: Together with the PWG, the METI team will develop a timeline of activities for the remaining project duration. Moreover, the communication with both partner and non-partner countries will be intensified.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation The METI team will consult the ILO Senior Risk Officer to update and strengthen the risk register of the programme and develop respective mitigation measures.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation A joint digital gateway for trade, investment and employment resources in the Southern Mediterranean Region is considered to disseminate publications, tools and key messages.

Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation Each PWG comprises of a core group, including policy makers from relevant government ministries (in particular labour, trade and investment), specialized national agencies (e.g., export and investment promotion agencies) and representatives from the social partners (e.g., trade unions and employers’ organizations). Depending on the subject of discussion, the composition of the working group is regularly revisited and adjusted if necessary; for instance, in the context of the sectors selected for outcome 3 and of the projects selected for outcome 4. While the core group of the working ensures consistency and sustainability over time, allow the dynamic adjustments of the group to cater for the expertise required for individual outputs.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation The METI team will scan the project portfolios in the region for possible linkages with METI. This includes individual ILO development cooperation projects, as well as UN-wide initiatives such as the Global Accelerator on Jobs and Social Protection and the UN Trust Fund for Tunisia. If such linkages are identified, possible opportunities will be explored to create synergies across the projects. Effective cost-sharing agreements are an integral part of the proposed METI phase II.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation A proposal for a potential phase II has been developed, comprising of a concept note, a LogFrame and an indicative budget. Conversations are primarily taking place with the current donor; yet, options are explored to roll-out the METI approach in different regions.
Mainstreaming Employment into Trade and Investment in the Southern Neighbourhood - Midterm evaluation The METI team will increase its efforts to minimize logistical and financial impediments for participants through the following measures: - Measure 1: Regional events are planned to take place in the region which will ease the logistical burden of most participants and almost remove it for participants form the host country. - Measure 2: All meetings will be designed as hybrid which may allow remote participation and hence remove the logistical and financial burden.

South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The programme successfully recruited an experienced Communications Officer who started work in the ILO Regional Office for Asia and the Pacific on 4 April 2023 to support improved implementation of the programme’s communications and visibility strategy. More specifically, the role will include developing information campaigns at regional and national levels, managing the programme website and other relevant online and social media platforms, coordinating the quarterly newsletters for the programme, and drafting press releases, programme updates, and event notifications for public dissemination.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation It should be noted that it is extremely difficult to directly assess the impact of MRC services through quantitative surveys. A practical challenge is that MRC beneficiaries are simply unavailable for interviews in countries of origin if they decide to migrate. Moreover, as they are migrating under temporary migration schemes, migrants typically do not remain for a long period of time in the same location within destination countries – making them difficult to reach for surveys. The broader conceptual problem is that the MRC services are not one specific standardized form of intervention with an outcome that can be clearly anticipated, which makes measurement through a quantitative survey very challenging. Lesson learned from nearly a decade of M&E support for MRCs have clearly indicated that qualitative “outcome harvesting” is a more strategic way to measure the MRC results because they better capture the complexity of migration experiences and avoid the logistical challenges of trying to trace a large sample of migrant beneficiaries. Outcome harvesting is currently required of all MRC partners. In addition, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has plans to include control sites in the end-line survey to support a difference-in-difference analysis. This will provide the programme with a credible way of measuring causality for the affected intervention areas, a portion of whom will be direct beneficiaries and a portion of whom will have indirectly benefitted from the circulation of improved information about safe migration within their communities.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation See the recommendation above for the management response on extending the Seafood Good Labour Practice (GLP) programme and links with IOM’s activities with individual enterprises. In relation to replication of Seafood GLP to other countries, the project will support a Thai-Indonesia bilateral discussion among employers and industry associations on the adaptation of the Seafood GLP. Furthermore, the Viet Nam Chamber of Commerce and Industry has expressed its initial interest in adopting a Seafood GLP programme
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation After the military coup in February 2021, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme conducted an extensive re-programming exercise for ILO, IOM and UNDP activities in Myanmar. All three UN organizations adapted their activities in line with UN and EU principles of engagement to avoid legitimizing the de facto authorities and provide additional support to civil society and trade unions. Since that time, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has been successful at implementing the planned activities in Myanmar in spite of the very challenging operational content. It currently maintains the largest programme of migration activities in Myanmar among the three existing ILO migration projects and has released seminal research on the organizational resilience of CSOs and trade unions since the military takeover. However, the programme will carefully consider the existing challenges if another phase of the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme is developed.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has been working on improving its communication with stakeholders on the delineation of responsibilities between the ILO’s fishing-related initiatives in Indonesia. The Programme will continue to work towards achieving clarity on this issue during the upcoming consolidated NPAC meeting, which will held in July 2023.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation In response to the recommendations of the Gender Equality and Women’s Empowerment Strategy, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has conducted an online training on 12-13 December 2022 with implementing partners from all seven programme countries to support the socialization of the strategy and familiarize partners with its concepts, tools and approaches. In addition, the programme has established a six-member Gender Task Force to support implementation of the strategy. Further, guidelines for measuring the programme’s gender budget were also developed and implemented. Finally, gender was mainstreamed into the curriculum of the MRC operations and M&E trainings. In relation to work planning, all national and regional work plans will be reviewed through a gender lens at the upcoming Ship to Shore Rights SEA Work Planning Meeting in July 2023.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The issue of disability will be addressed within the end-line research of the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme. The Washington Questions will be applied to assess the extent to which return migrants from the fishing and seafood processing sectors experience disability as a result of their employment. In addition, the programme will work in collaboration with the TRIANGLE in ASEAN and Safe and Fair programmes to support referral of persons with disabilities to appropriate services, including legal assistance for discrimination. The work will be done in collaboration with the ASEAN Disability Forum, which is a network of organizations made up of and led by people with disabilities.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation Impact and long-term sustainability have been considered throughout in the design of the activities of the Programme activities in Indonesia. For example, for the MRC operations in Tegal Municipality of Central Java, the programme has discussed and agreed with the partner that the MRC services will tap into Government’s resources to support continued implementation after ILO support ends. In relation to labour inspection, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme currently aims to put institutional structure in place that will enable joint inspections between the Ministry of Manpower and Ministry of Marine Affairs and Fisheries for the long-term. An MOU has been signed that will support collaboration on “inspection of labour norms and occupational safety and health”. This initial policy step is necessary to support sustainable impact of the inspections beyond the duration of the project cycle.

South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has continued to build collaboration between CSOs in Myanmar and Thailand through two key activities: (1) Cross-border cooperation meetings are being organized jointly by ILO and IOM on a bi-monthly basis with 50-70 representatives of CSOs, trade unions and international organizations working on safe migration in Myanmar and Thailand; and (2) the launch of a call for proposals for small grants to support for local CSO and trade union actors to deliver localized safe migration information and assistance services to migrants in Myanmar and Thailand. In particular, the grants are meant to facilitate increased cross-border cooperation between these actors in Myanmar and Thailand. The selection and funding of partners is expected to be completed in June 2023.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The recommendation refers to the emergence of trafficking for forced criminality in the region, which is addressed by the national and transnational referral mechanisms being developed. However, noting the need to retain the relevance of activities to the objectives of the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme (which focus on labour migration into the fishing and seafood processing sectors), more targeted action on this issue is not considered appropriate.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Vietnam action plan for 2023-2024 has been revised, together with the Department of Overseas Labour. The key focus areas during the remainder of the programme will be supporting the 3 MRCs and getting the activities of the remaining 2 MRCs in Viet Nam resumed; conducting a gap analysis on C188 and national legislation; providing information on labour rights and OSH to fishers, delivering a training of trainers on financial literacy for migrant workers, and providing legislative training on the new legal framework in Viet Nam. The regional and national team will continue to hold weekly discussions to ensure the feasibility of the activities within the remaining period for implementation. Viet Nam will be excluded from any applications for no cost extension as any government authorization received will only cover the original period of implementation for the project.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has developed a TOR for an “Assessment of lessons learned and good practices for the implementation of migrant worker resource centres in South-East Asia”. The objectives of the research will be to: (1) Document lessons learned and good practices from the implementation of MRCs in SEA region; (2) provide recommendations to the ILO on improvements needed to the MRC model; and (3) to contribute to the global knowledge base on provision of support services to migrant workers through MRCs to support replication in other regions. The assessment is planned for the third and fourth quarter of 2023 and will be conducted together with the TRIANGLE in ASEAN and Safe and Fair programmes.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation It should be noted that there is evidence of Lao migrants working in the fishing and seafood processing sectors, though in smaller numbers than for Cambodian and Myanmar migrants. In particular, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has conducted research entitled “Precarious pathways: Migration patterns and service needs for migrant workers in the Lao People’s Democratic Republic”, which identified Lao migrants working in both target sectors. For the current phase, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme sees value in continuing the Lao programme, particularly given the existing commitments made to stakeholders and the emerging evidence that there are Lao migrants employed in the fishing/seafood processing sectors. However, the programme will consider all possibilities for maximizing value for money during a no cost extension or another programme phase should they be granted.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The 10 MRCs in Cambodia attended training in Siem Reap in January 2023, which emphasized participatory sharing of experiences and resources by partners. To support ongoing exchange and collaboration between the MRCs, the ILO has established a telegram group to network the MRCs on a more regular basis. In addition, the MRCs attend quarterly network meetings under the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme that allow for regular sharing of information and experiences.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme is in discussion with the Thai Frozen Foods Association (TFFA) and the Thai Tuna Industry Association (TTIA) on an implementation agreement to enhance implementation of the Seafood Good Labour Practice programme as a continuous Improvement programme. The proposal focuses on strengthening the credibility of factory visits in measuring compliance through engagement of civil society organizations, establishing an industry-level grievance mechanism and improving public reporting of GLP compliance to ensure accountability of member companies. It will also seek to expand the programme to cover additional factories. However, as the Seafood Good Labour practice programme prohibits sub-contracting of labour because of the risks of child/forced labour (particularly in peeling sheds), the focus will be on eliminating not incorporating sub-contracting practices. In addition, GLP cannot directly build on the work done by IOM with private companies because it is conducted under non-disclosure agreements.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme conducted a theory of change workshop with the labour inspectorate in 2022, which highlighted problems with a denial of the scale of violations occurring in the fishing and seafood processing sectors. There was an acknowledgement of the many institutional challenges faced by labour inspectors to effectively identify and respond to labour rights violations. To follow-up on this issue, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme is planning to conduct an assessment of the challenges faced by labour inspectors engaged in Port-in Port-out centers to improve the identification of labour rights violation. The study will be conducted in Q3 of 2023. A pilot project in Ranong was kicked off in March 2023 with one of its objectives to improve collaboration between government inspectors, CSOs and worker organizations. It has been agreed that regular meetings will be held between the Fishers’ Rights Network (FRN) and PIPO officials to provide information and support, as well as access for FRN to observe the inspections.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation An implementation agreement has been signed with the Fair Training Center to develop the pre-departure curriculum for migrant fishers. The programme will also develop a partnership with Stella Maris in the Philippines to carry out both orientation and outreach interventions at the community level to further guarantee there is continuous access to prospective migrant fishers. Consideration will be given to a handover of these activities to other ILO projects to ensure they are fully institutionalized depending on the progress achieved during the programme.

South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Village Focus International (VFI) activities have only recently been initiated. Further investigation is needed to determine how successful the follow-up approach being used by VFI is before considering replication. This will be addressed during the MRC assessment that has been planned for the third and fourth quarter of 2023.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation ILO, IOM, and UNDP focal persons hold regular catchup meetings to share progress and challenges, as well as to discuss upcoming activities and events. In addition, all three UN agencies present the progress achieved and work plan for the next year at the annual PAC meeting. Each UN agency will take responsibilities for communicating the inter-agency approach of S2SR with their respective partners. Further efforts to ensure consistent communication with external stakeholders about the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme will be also facilitated by the recent addition of a Communications Officer.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The training on the MRC operation manual has now been conducted in Cambodia, Lao PDR and Myanmar. In addition, the programme conducted Monitoring and Evaluation training for MRC and implementing partners in Cambodia, Myanmar, Lao PDR and Thailand. Further trainings are planned in Indonesia and the Philippines when MRCs become operational. The trainings for MRC applied a participatory approach to draw upon lessons learned and good practices from longer established MRCs. In addition, Ship to Shore Rights SEA organized two exchange visits between Thai and Cambodian trade unions to build bilateral cooperation on labour rights protection and worker organizing for Cambodian migrant fishers. Further coordination between MRC partners is planned during quarterly network meetings, programme advisory committee, meetings and additional exchange visits. Concerning the recommendation to strengthen awareness of protection risks for migrants filing complaints, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA has included these issues in the MRC Operations Trainings, as well as during dispute resolution training in Cambodia.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The ILO has held a discussion with the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training (MLVT), civil society organizations and trade unions to develop a roadmap for the development of a bilateral agreement among Cambodian stakeholders. According to the agreed upon steps, the Cambodian MLVT sent an official letter to the Thai Ministry of Labour (MOL) requesting a meeting to discuss the negotiation of a bilateral agreement in April 2023.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation According to the terms of the contribution agreement with the European Union, no significant changes to the theory of change can be made at outcome level for the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme. Further, it was agreed at the recent Programme Steering Committee meeting that a revision to the Theory of Change (TOC) is not necessary for the current phase of the programme. A review of the TOC will instead be conducted in preparation for the next phase of implementation for the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme. Nevertheless, further practical coordination efforts will be made between the three UN agencies and internally within the ILO to ensure that the potential synergies are maximized.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation In response to the recommendation, the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has established a regular monthly coordination meeting between the three implementing agencies (ILO, UNDP and IOM). The first meeting was organized on 3 April 2023 and was useful in discussing upcoming activities. The meetings will continue until IOM and UNDP complete the implementation of their respective activities under the programme.
South East Asia regional programme for labour migration in the fishing sector - Midterm evaluation The Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme has completed a baseline survey in Vietnam and will be conducting an endline survey before it ends in July 2024. The programme will consider whether an additional scoping study is needed but does not currently have plans to conduct one.

Employment Intensive Infrastructure Programmes in Lebanon (Phase III & IV) & Jordan (Phase V) - Clustered evaluation LBN: ILO ROAS and EIIP Lebanon is widening its approach with working with GoL and international agencies and other stakeholders to address the challenge of the livelihoods of the poor and vulnerable displaced Syrians and host communities. An ILO Livelihoods officer actively participates in the CfW inter agency working groups. ILO takes a leading role on setting the working conditions and agreeing the common wage rates. ILO attends the UNCT led Strategic Taskforce on Cash Allocations and will share the lessons learned from the EIIP programme on dollarization and cash disbursement. EIIP conducts training on EIIP/ LRBT based methodology and in Phase V will broaden this outreach to Municipalities, Governmental Institutions, and other stakeholders through a new online training platform, thereby increasing the knowledge of the LRBT approach benefiting these organisations. (A more strategic approach with the Institutional bodies, such as a move to PEP, is currently limited by the impact of the economic and political situation.) Skills development for short term workers is being advanced through the cooperation between the EIIP KfW funded programme and the EIIP EU funded programme, where OTJ training is planned for Women and PWD under the KfW phase V funded programme and selected workers will have vocational skills training to enhance future employment opportunities under the EU funded programme. JOR: In Jordan there is collaborative work between all Cash for Work actors under the Programme Support Unit. It’s planned that the collaboration with PSU will be more effective and ILO is taking the lead on the Standard Operation Procedure aside with GIZ on standardizing the rules and regulations for Cash for Work Sector in Jordan.

Employment Intensive Infrastructure Programmes in Lebanon (Phase III & IV) & Jordan (Phase V) - Clustered evaluation The Office does not believe such a review is relevant or useful at this stage. The operating contexts and the modalities of Lebanon and Jordan projects are very different. Also the guidance from the donor and the larger UN frameworks is very different and has evolved over time differently in both countries, also taking into account the wider refugee response. More technically, the labour intensity also depends on daily wage rates and type of EIIP interventions, given capital costs for infrastructure assets. Setting a rate or seeking to compare such a rate is not considered relevant.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Programmes in Lebanon (Phase III & IV) & Jordan (Phase V) - Clustered evaluation LBN: The outreach mechanism in Lebanon is tried and trusted under the programme and carried out by the contractor under the supervision of the EIIP team, in Phase V, this mechanism is being refined to include more outlets for outreach such as SDCs and OPDs, additionally a vulnerability assessment will be added to better select workers based on the criteria set in the program. s. The retention and skills development for selected workers with a view to further redeployment is being explored through the EU funded component of the EIIP, to complement the existing practices. The OTJ training component of the programme is being enhanced during Phase V to have dedicated per-deployment training specifically for women and PWD.

Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation Work is underway to better align light-earmarked funding to, for instance, outcome-based funding, tied to the ILO’s biennium cycle and P&B outcomes. It has to be kept in mind though that voluntary funding decisions by donors are subject to considerations and timelines on the donor’s side (parliamentary approvals, foreign aid reviews, agency assessments).
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation In cooperation with the ITC-ILO Turin, IRToolkit presentations have been made to all field specialists and CTAs in Asia, Africa, Latin America. In particular, through the direct engagement of social partners organizations and the Bureaux for Workers (ACTRAV) and Employers’ (ACT/EMP) activities a regional adaptation of the training package is being developed to fit the Latin American specificities and needs. The IRToolkit has been used and presented also in the Academy on Social Dialogue and Industrial Relations and on a series of Masterclasses organised under the aegis of the Global Deal Initiative. As a direct result of this engagement, the IRToolkit has been translated into Spanish and French and a number of training activities have been and will be carried out at country level with the support of the ITC-ILO Turin including to country-specific adaptations of existing as well as of new modules. In particular, country-specific translated and adapted versions were produced for: -Grievance Handling and Workplace Cooperation module for Nepal -Grievance Handling and Collective Bargaining modules for India -Gender, Violence and Harassment and Non-Discrimination and Grievance Handling for Ethiopia; - Industrial Relations in times of crisis module for Myanmar. A number of planned training activities will be implemented using the translated version of the IRToolkit in support of CPOs in countries such as Nicaragua, Haiti, Colombia, Thailand, Myanmar, India and Nepal, Ethiopia and Cameroon. In cooperation with the ITC-ILO Turin the training offer of the Toolkit has been adapted into an on-line, self-guided version in order to address the challenges in delivering training amidst the COVID-19 crisis. Additionally, the two new modules on Gender, Violence and Harassment and Non-Discrimination as well as the one on Industrial Relations in times of crisis have been produced in two versions: one for on-line and the other for face to face training. The revised and expanded training offer (in all its country specific and regional adaptation) is currently being made available on the improved new e-Campus platform of the ITC Turin in all the different languages.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation The network has been engaged in the latest expansion of the database to include 10 new additional countries. Internal rules of procedure for service contracts and implementation agreements remain a constraint, as the engagement with the partnering institutions cannot operate on an automatic basis and has to pass through a competitive bidding process or through waiver procedures that make the process cumbersome. Opportunities are being explored with JUR on the possibility to create a “fast track” for the institutions that are members of the partnering network, and with the institutions themselves to see if there is interest to engage in a longer term commitment (if compatible with available funding devoted to IRLex in the medium-long term). Covering the costs related to the involvement of academic institutions for regular up-dating of IRLex remains an issue related to the decision regarding the institutionalization of the database (Recommendation 11).
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation The SAM-SDI mainstreams gender and inclusion in each of its steps. The gender dimension has been mainstreamed in the production of the two new modules of the IRToolkit on Industrial Relations in times of crisis and on Gender, Non-Discrimination and Violence and Harassment. Furthermore, a gender and training specialist will revise the existing modules to mainstream gender throughout.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation The IRToolkit has been entirely translated in Spanish and a good part of the modules have been translated in French. Training activities and training of trainers have been planned in collaboration with Labour Law and Social Dialogue Specialists as well as with ACTRAV and ACT/EMP Specialists in the Region and in particular Colombia, Haiti, Nicaragua and a pilot for an adapted curriculum of the IRToolkit to Latin America in Honduras. The IRToolkit will be used directly for training activities in Cameroon. IRLex has been used and will continue to be used by Labour Law field specialists in the new phase of the labour law reform process in Vietnam, Mongolia and to support a workshop on labour reform in Tanzania. It was also key to informing technical advice provided in Greece. Opportunities to make the database available in French and Spanish have been explored but have proven to be highly resource-intensive, and cost-prohibitive, given the focus on roll-out and delivery at country level, made more difficult in the context of COVID. By the end of the year, all ll Labour Law specialists at field level will have been trained to operationalize the database in every case were the office is called to provide its technical support in labour law or institutional reform processes in the area of industrial relations. The SAM-SDI is being produced in English, French and Spanish and will be shared with specialists in all regions for its application at country level. Other translations may be undertaken in due course in response to demand
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation Resources are being allocated towards the development of a TOC pointing out the existing linkages between strengthening labour market institutions like collective bargaining and reduction of inequality, poverty and linkages also with democracy and social peace. This exercise is being carried out having as a starting point the work done at country level. In particular different assessment of decent work gaps (with a focus on FACB rights) and of the industrial relations frameworks done in preparation of the roll-out of the global products (particularly of the IRToolkit) in different TC projects, allowed for effective interventions responding to the real needs of constituents at country level and are contributing to change on the ground. The TOC is therefore currently being designed starting from the concrete experience of the use of the Sida-funded global products at country level which is proving concrete value in contributing to the achievement of the broader strategic objectives mentioned above.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation Close collaboration is continuing between DIALOGUE, ACTRAV, ACT/EMP, INWORK, field specialists and officials in country offices, including project staff, regarding the training of facilitators, roll-out of the tools at country level and production of complementary and supporting products. In the development of activities for the roll-out of IRLex and IRToolkit, INWORK has both strengthened existing in-house partnerships and created new ones with units and branches not involved in the past, such as the Labour Administration, Labour Inspection and Occupational Safety and Health Branch (LABADMIN/OSH) and Gender, Equality, Diversity and Inclusion Branch (GEDI). Existing partnerships have been further strengthened through the creation of a joint strategy for the dissemination at country level with BETTER WORK (for the IRToolkit) and LABOURLAW (for IRLex). Furthermore, the two Bureaux for workers and employers activities ACTRAV and ACT/EMP have continued to play an important role for the design of activities, in particular at country level where they are actively involved in the design of a training curriculum for the Americas.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation The evaluation report having been received after the proposals for the next phase had already been approved, it was impossible to take this recommendation into account. Nevertheless, for both IRLex and the IRToolkit, INWORK has been engaging with INFOTEC and ITC-ILO Turin to establish baseline metrics and track progress in respect of utilisation of the newly-launched IRLex database and the Toolkit modules housed on the ITC-ILO e-campus. Moreover, improved evaluation systems are in development, again in partnership with the Turin centre, to better track and make adjustments to capacity building materials.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation Training workshops were delivered to key officers from national ministries of labour and statistical offices to support them in the collection and use of data on industrial relations as well as in improving their quality and comparability. Those activities included virtual seminars for the tripartite constituents in North Macedonia and Portugal, the Masters Degree programme in Industrial Relations (ITC-ILO Turin) and the e-Academy on Social Dialogue and Industrial Relations (ITC-ILO Turin). Efforts to integrate of ILO methodology in national labour force surveys aimed at capturing information on industrial relations continued including in Iraq and Myanmar. A partnership that involves INWORK, STATISTICS, GOVERNANCE and field specialist is updating and expanding the Industrial Relations Database (IRData). The result of this work will provide data which will be available in ILOSTAT in the coming months, including on trade union density (for 130 countries) and on collective bargaining coverage (for 99 countries). Field specialists will be actively involved in consultations regarding how many countries could be included in the above database in the coming years, which will inform the sustainability plan.
Sida-ILO Partnership Programme 2018-2019 Outcome-based funding to Outcome 7 with a focus on Social Dialogue, Industrial Relations and Collective Bargaining (Phase I) - Final evaluation The SAM-SDI will be made available through an ePlatform on ITC eCampus (in addition to website, USB card and hard copies) which should simplify access and more interactive use of the method. Complementary materials are being developed for dissemination including short videos and a summary brochure. Virtual piloting is planned for second half of 2021 in collaboration with field specialists.

Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation 1. Les avantages d’un système intégré de formation et d’accompagnement sont démontrés. Aussi, dans le cas d’interventions similaires futures, il est recommandé les actions suivantes :  Les actions nécessaires • Le projet jeunes au travail a suivi le même schéma durant sa mise en œuvre. Un échantillon de jeunes femmes et hommes entrepreneurs, y compris les coopératives et associations de jeunes femmes et hommes entrepreneurs, ont reçu des formations entrepreneuriales ; ont eu accès aux financements, notamment à travers des concours des plans d’affaires et ont bénéficié d’un accompagnement dans la mise en œuvre de leurs activités. Cela est une expérience à répliquer. • Le projet était fondamentalement accès sur les formations entrepreneuriales en vue l’insertion des jeunes femmes et hommes en tant que créateurs d’entreprise ou travailleurs indépendants. Le projet n’était pas accès sur le développement de compétences en vue de leur placement dans des entreprises existantes comme des salarié(e)s. Les résultats de l’évaluation ont été partagés avec le bureau d’Alger et les experts en charge de développement des compétences, qui ne manqueront pas d’intégrer cette recommandation dans les futures initiatives de développement de compétences et veillera à appuyer les compétences théoriques par des compétences pratiques.   • Cette recommandation étant faite alors que le projet était à sa fin, sera intégrée dans le cadre des initiatives futures. Le projet a appuyé l’Agence nationale de promotion de l'emploi et des compétences (ANAPEC) dans l’ingénierie et le développement d’une nouvelle offre de services pour les non-diplômés et son expérimentation dans les agences pilotes.
Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation Les actions nécessaires • Régionaliser la gestion et le suivi d’un tel projet, avec un certain niveau de délégation de prérogatives locales et de participation des acteurs de la région, notamment à travers :  o Recommandation à intégrer dans le cadre des initiatives futures. o Le projet disposait des coordinations locales dans les trois régions de mise en œuvre. o Recommandation à intégrer dans le cadre des initiatives futures. • Ceci était fait durant la mise en œuvre du projet. • Les trois régions de mise en œuvre : l’Oriental, Sous Massa et l’axe Casablanca-Kenitra étaient des régions pilotes. Ces régions pilotes étaient d’identifiées dans le cadre d’un processus participatif. Il était bien entendu dès le départ du projet que l’expérience sera étendue à d’autres régions ou provinces du pays.
Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation Les actions nécessaires à cet effet • L’ANAPEC est un mandant constituant de l’OIT. Elle était l’une des bénéficiaires directs du projet jeunes au travail et a l’avantage d’avoir cet ancrage institutionnel qui permet de faire perdurer l’offre de service commencé dans le cadre de ce projet. • L’ODCO a été un partenaire de choix dans l’appui aux jeunes femmes et hommes du fonds Pour les jeunes et par les jeunes et a bénéficié des formations et d’appui institutionnel. Cette institution dispose de bases de durabilité technique, organisationnelle et financière pour continuer son appui aux entrepreneurs sociaux.
Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation Le projet dispose d’un répertoire de collaborateurs externes et membres de l’ancienne équipe du projet.
Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation 3. Le projet a fait du Genre une composante transversale en raison de son caractère prioritaire dans les politiques et stratégies à la fois du Gouvernement marocain, du Canada et du BIT. En conséquence, il est recommandé ce qui suit pour la prise en compte de l’EFH dans les prochaines initiatives similaires :  Les actions nécessaires   • SME est actuellement en train de mener une étude des filières porteuses pour identifier les secteurs et chaines de valeur les plus propices au développement de l’entrepreneuriat féminin à la promotion de l’emploi des femmes. Les résultats de cette étude permettront de développer un document de projet d’une intervention axée exclusivement sur l’autonomisation économique des femmes. • Les nouveaux matériels de formation GET Ahead intègre cette dimension d’appui par les pairs. • Les associations des femmes ont été parties intégrantes dans la mise en œuvre du projet jeunes au travail. Plusieurs associations avaient aussi bénéficié des formations des formateurs pour dupliquer les mêmes efforts auprès des femmes entrepreneurs. • Pour les non- scolarisées surtout, il faudrait insister sur des simulations pratiques et concrètes portant sur le cheminement/parcours à la fois pour l’emploi et l’entrepreneuriat, ainsi que des discussions de groupes prouvées efficaces par certaines expériences du projet.  Pour une meilleure inclusion de l’égalité femme-homme, qu’il s’agisse d’employabilité ou d’entrepreneuriat, il convient de mener les actions suivantes :   - Le projet a appuyé l’ANAPEC tout au long des cinq années de mise en œuvre. D’abord dans l’ingénierie et le développement d’une nouvelle offre de services pour les non-diplômés durant les trois premières années, puis dans son expérimentation dans certaines agences pilotes dans les deux dernières années. - Le projet avait réalisé FAMOS check auprès d’un total de 11 institutions d’appui au développement des entreprises. - Le projet avait un système de suivi rigoureux avec des cartes de performance et des ressources humaines adéquates : une experte nationale dédiée exclusivement au suivi et à l’évaluation des activités du projet. Ces considérations ont été intégrées dans l’approche méthodologique de mise en œuvre de nouveaux matériels GET Ahead.

Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation 2. L’impact de la formation et de l’accompagnement aux jeunes peut varier en fonction du profil de ceux-ci. D’où l’importance du profilage des bénéficiaires visés. En conséquence, lors de projets similaires futurs :  Les actions nécessaires • Le projet a procédé à l’élaboration des critères de sélection et des fiches d’admission aux programmes de formation pour : (i) permettre de collecter les attentes et aspirations des participantes et participants ; (ii) savoir comment les aborder aux cours des formations ; et (iii) vérifier à la fin si les connaissances transmises ont répondu à leurs attentes. • Ceci était l’approche privilégiée par le projet tout au long de sa mise en œuvre. • Le projet a mis en place une plateforme en ligne et une communauté de pratique pour permettre aux jeunes femmes et hommes bénéficiaires, particulièrement ceux du fonds Pour les jeunes et par les jeunes, de partager leurs expériences et de déceler des opportunités de partenariat.
Youth at work: partnership for employment of young women and men in Morocco - Final Evaluation Les actions nécessaires :   Le projet a disposé au début de sa mise en œuvre d’une stagiaire et consultante qui a mis en place un plan de communication du projet. Le projet était aussi très actif sur les médiaux sociaux, particulièrement avec sa page Facebook.

Cerrando brechas: protección social para las mujeres en México – Evaluación final Desde la OIT a finales del 2022 se capacitó a 47 inspectores de trabajo federales y estatales en materia de inspección de trabajo para el sector del trabajo del hogar reunerado. Tras la capacitación se realizó una memoria sobre la misma y se entregó a la STPS. Hemos mantenido reuniones con la STPS para el desarrollo de un protocolo de inspección para el sector mencionado y la STPS nos informó de su interés de poder desarrollarlo durante el año 2023, en el momento actual no hemos vuelto a recibir retroalimentación al respecto.
Cerrando brechas: protección social para las mujeres en México – Evaluación final Actualmente OIT, ONUMUJERES y FAO están trabajando junto a la OCR en el dessarrollo de la concept note para la II Fase del Proyecto Cerrando Brechas. Para ello, se están teniendo en cuenta todos los comentarios mencionados en este punto, con el fin de garantizar la interagencialidad en el proyecto.
Cerrando brechas: protección social para las mujeres en México – Evaluación final Tomaremos en cuenta el comentario de definir indicadores de efecto e impacto para asegurar el acceso efectivo de grupos vulnerables a la protección social y a los servicios, para nuevos proyectos o intervenciones. De hecho, actualmente las 3 agencias del proyecto evaluado estamos preparando una segunda fase del Cerrando brechas tomando encuenta las recomendaciones de la evaluacion.
Cerrando brechas: protección social para las mujeres en México – Evaluación final FAO. Sin duda que la problemática de falta de protección social de la población jornalera es amplia. En la etapa de implementación se planteó trabajar las dos agendas locales (Jalisco y Oaxaca) partiendo de que era necesario impulsar acciones desde el lugar de origen, tránsito y destino de las jornaleras agrícolas. En las mesas de protección social que se impulsaron participaron instancias federales como el Instituto Mexicano del Seguro Social (IMSS), Coordinadora del Servicio Nacional de Empleo. En el caso de Agricultura a nivel federal es una instancia que se retomaría en una segunda etapa del proyecto. Se ha participado en eventos convocados por la Sociedad Civil donde se ha enfatizado la importancia de reactivar programas como el Prograna de Atención de Jornaleros Agrícolas (PAJA), que desde el 2029 se ha quedado sin presupuesto
Cerrando brechas: protección social para las mujeres en México – Evaluación final FAO. Actualmente se implementa en Proyecto medios de vida sostenibles para mujeres rurales en Jalisco (estado expulsro y recepctor de población jornalera) con la coordinación de dos instancias de gobierno: Secretaría de Agricultura y Desarrollo Rural y Secretaría de Igualdad Sustantiva. Las acciones se centran en mejorar la participación de las mujeres en las cadenas de valor, impulsando la genración de ingresos, el liderazgo, toma de desiciones y emprendimientos sostenibles. En esta iniciativa se está atendiendo a mujeres jornaleras agrícolas y a mujeres productoras con la finalidad de abordar con más amplitud la agenda de las mujeres rurales.

However: - Budget allocation for activities with Governments is considered (without reduction of CSOs allocation) - Identification and implementation of activities with governments (support to regional action plans; labour inspection training; agreements with ministries of education) will be considered.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Midterm evaluation The SCORE Programme agrees with the recommendation and raised this concern to both donors on 2 March 2020 who approved the SCORE staff contract extension in China, Colombia, Ghana, Indonesia, Peru and Vietnam till October 2021. Norad additionally committed USD 358,250 to support this decision
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Midterm evaluation The SCORE Programme conducted the Peru Impact Assessment to mitigate such challenges, as raised by the mid-term evaluation. It will conduct impact assessments in selected countries at the end of Phase III, instead of the final evaluation to generate more impact-oriented M&E system, pending donor approval of the management response. (See also Colombia recommendation 4 and Indonesia recommendation 6). The SCORE Programme will continue to build capacity of implementation partners to monitor training outreach and quality, where applicable by incorporating the SCORE M&E database in their operations. However, the decision is to be made by each implementation partner.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Midterm evaluation The SCORE Programme agrees with the recommendation and will continue to reach out to global brands to collaborate in promoting SME productivity and working conditions in their supply chains. It shares the same views with the mid-term evaluation recommendation that global brands outside of the US and Europe are also an important source of collaboration. In fact, it already works with many other global brands at local level, including TASA in Peru and Samsung in Indonesia. The SCORE Programme will continue to involve lead buyers in developing training modules, online training programmes or other sources of expertise. In addition, it will continue to collaborate with ILO MULTI to create synergies in promotion of decent work in global supply chains.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Midterm evaluation The SCORE Programme already translated the MIG SCORE module to English and is developing a global version of the training package with a trainers’ guide and participants’ manuals by mid-2020. During this process, the SCORE Programme will consider new content innovation and reflect other emerging needs, as recommended by mid-term evaluation. It envisions to promote MIG SCORE globally from late 2020
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Midterm evaluation The SCORE Programme shared the same views with the mid-term evaluation. It revised the outcome 2 strategy and both donors approved the changes in May 2019. The SCORE Programme already started to reflect the changes in project implementation in each country. It will also adjust budget allocation between outcome 1 and outcome 2 to support more activities in outcome 1 in the countries (e.g. Ghana, Colombia, Indonesia, Bolivia, and Myanmar) where lead buyers are not present or unwilling to sponsor SCORE Training, as recommended by mid-term evaluation.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Midterm evaluation The programme has applied social learning processes in a few countries, using the term “peer learning”, which it will continue to use to avoid confusion. The programme will review existing experiences of peer learning and organize a webinar to share good practices and facilitate discussions on how to apply peer learning approaches in project implementation. (see also Colombia recommendation 2 and Indonesia recommendation 1 and 2) It will examine the costs and benefits of peer learning in designing the future programmes. However, due to the budget constraints, it might not be possible to organize a national or sub-regional learning alliances during Phase III. Instead, the SCORE programme will organize local learning events and webinars for regional and global learning exchanges to promote a peer learning process among project stakeholders.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO will continue working on this under different projects that are currently active. As mentionned above, the ILO is working on enhancing some training centers in KRI. Recently, the ILO expanded its geographical focus to include some areas in the south parts of Iraq and mainly in Basra. The ILO will also support establishing employment center and enhancing some training workshops there as well. The ILO has been working with UNICEF, UNHCR, and other development partners, and it will keep growing its collaboration to support advocacy and capacity building training as a means to take advantage of economy of scale.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation ILO and UNHCR worked on a joint proposal, submitted to the Arab Fund, on enhancing TVET system in KRI to be more inclusive of women, refugees and IDPs. This project was recently approved and will enhance the referral system between UNHCR and ILO so the target populations can benefit from the ILO interventions under different projects including PROSPECTS. Families of drop-out children will have the priority in such interventions. Tripartite constituents of the ILO have put child labour issues at the forefront of the current DWCP and have been exerting efforts since the development of the plan. The ILO has also been working and will continue to work to mobilize funds and implement DC projects to curb child labour.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO is working on a full-fledged proposal on child labour to be submitted to the EU who expressed interest to fund child labour interventions. The draft project document includes most of the elements mentioned there. The ILO has already handed over the CLMS to the local implementing partners and DoLSA to sustain and scale it out in the governorates i.e., Dohuk and Ninewa, where the system was piloted. However, the CLMS must be replicated in other governorates and similar types of committees should be established in other governorates especially where child labour prevalence rate is high. Thus, the ILO commits itself to work towards establishing CLMS in other governorates through sensitization of its constituents. Furthermore, the ILO will work towards developing CLMS manual with capacity building materials in partnership with ILO-ITC.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO has been putting numerous efforts in drafting the National Action Plan to fight against Child Labour and will continue to provide technical support for its tripartite constituents to endorse it soon. The ILO recently published a new policy paper on education and social protection which created a high level policy discussion and led to some programmatic change in the priorities of the new government development plan.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO will continue working on this through different channels. The ILO will work closely with local faith-based and community-based organizations to bring behavioural and attitudinal changes towards child labour issues amongst the communities where child labour is prevalent. Cognizant of this recommendation, awareness raising campaigns are now being included in the new project proposals
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO developed some proposals on child labour that took into consideration most of the elements mentioned in the evaluation report. The ILO has been putting numerous efforts in drafting the National Action Plan to fight against Child Labour and will continue to provide technical support for its tripartite constituents to endorse it soon. Furthermore, the ILO will keep on strengthening social and development partners to take over and scale up the Child Labour Monitoring System, SCREAM and CFLS with great emphasis being given to refugees, IDPS and vulnerable host communities. The ILO will also continue to provide capacity building to key national stakeholders and promote awareness raising campaigns to sensitize local communities on child labour issues at national and local level.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO being Co-chair of the Disability Inclusion Coordination Group (DICG) in the UNCT, will work closely with members of the DICG as well as OPDs to ensure concerns and needs of PWDs are included. In addition, the ILO will make sure that issues of disabilities are mainstreamed and integrated in the DWCP and across DC project to come in the future. The ILO will also intentionally embed disability indicators in the results frameworks and target PWDs to benefit from the projects that will be designed in the future.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO will, funding allowing, conduct diagnostic survey to assess the prevalence rate of the worst forms of child labour and identify target areas, sectors and population affected by child labour issues. This will allow the ILO to come up with decent and gender sensitive targeting which will also include domestic settings of child labour. Therefore, the ILO will consider this recommendation seriously in future projects while project targets are determined taking the 1999 ILO Policy on Gender Equality and Mainstreaming, and the UN System Wide Action Plan on Gender Equality and Empowerment of Women into consideration
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation ILO always ensures the necessary human resources within the limits of project budgets and donor agreements. It has well- developed HR polices in terms of grading the position. ILO often gets applicants from other UN agencies for its positions (currently ILO Iraq team includes 7 staff who came from other UN agencies), sometimes it loses people to other UN agencies.
Tackling the Worst Forms of Child Labour amongst IDPs, Refugees, and Vulnerable Host Communities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO has been using the same list of criteria to target the project beneficiaries. However, some of the criteria were not fulfilled as needed. Therefore, the ILO will put due considerations on similar indicators while determining project beneficiaries and targets from the get-go.
Decent Work Opportunities for Refugees and Host Communities in Türkiye - Midterm evaluation Following the lifted travel restriction, the project team members pay more field visits to the project provinces to increase the effective monitoring. In addition, an external collaborator has also been contracted to carry out monitoring work, along with carrying out digital ways of monitoring.

In addition necessary support mechanisms such as chilcare support will be provided under new project.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation While the project had been indeed conducting capacity and needs assessments of different partners, those assessments were not implemented in a systematic manner. To better prepare the youth employment/vocational skills training strategies of the 2nd phase, the project is going to conduct a study to design the component for capacity and institutional building support in this area of work.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation Based on the Knowledge Management (KM) Strategy, the project has recruited a consultant to collect the best practices and lessons learned which will be presented at the national, regional and global levels. In the meantime, we have also filled the vacancy of the project KM expert to further enhance the management of relevant experience and expertise. Through the knowledge-sharing process that engages all relevant stakeholders, the consolidated best practices are being widely shared especially through the regional knowledge-sharing workshop held in Abidjan in February 2023. In the 2nd phase, the project will also aim to facilitate the stakeholders to replicate some of the best practices by providing technical advisory services and seed funding where necessary. Regarding the point on the reformulation of Outcome 2, it would be a little difficult as Outcome 2 was flexibly designed and adjusted to each country’s context. Nevertheless, in the proposal for the 2nd phase, Outcome 2 is formulated to implement the activities more efficiently by bringing the ILO’s comparative advantage.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation Different studies conducted under the ACCEL Africa project such as baseline surveys, rapid assessments and value chain analyses indeed provide important information to understand child labour prevalence and situation in supply chains. However, the ILO agreed on the importance of strengthening the research methodology. The recommendation has been shared with the Research Unit of FUNDAMENTALS for future research activities, in addition to our evaluation knowledge and its management. For example, the value chain analysis conducted in Uganda has been able to provide a comprehensive picture of child labour in tea and coffee value chains and identified gaps to be addressed to strengthen actions/due diligence for the reduction and prevention of child labour. The project team will publish those reports and promote the implementation of similar studies in other countries and value chains.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation This recommendation is well noted, especially for the development of future project work that we are already working on. Because of the time required for the initial recruitment process, proper gap analysis in terms of data, sound research methodology design and the implementation of research, at least 1 year would be needed to complete the inception phase in a solid manner.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation The project has improved its M&E indicators to capture gender-disaggregated data to the extent possible. The project has been also integrating gender-specific activities especially by empowering women to be organized and start or improve their economic activities through promoting Village Saving and Loan Associations and access to financial services in Cote d’Ivoire, Mali and Uganda.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation This point has been indeed raised at the earlier stage of the project. It was decided to maintain the coffee supply chain in Malawi mainly for two reasons: (1) the project aimed at promoting cross-learning with Uganda; and (2) coffee stakeholders in Malawi participated extensively in the consultation process. However, considering the importance of addressing child labour in the sugar supply chain in Malawi, the project has been paying further attention to stakeholders and actors working in the sugar sector by inviting them to knowledge sharing and capacity-building opportunities such as training, advocacy events and consultations.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation Based on the overall TOCs developed in the PRODOC, the project took a highly consultative approach to formulate the implementation strategies at the national level. While the project decided to develop the activities for each country based on the needs identified by the national stakeholders in the consultation process, the same Outputs set by the PRODOC have been maintained for all the countries. This decision also allowed the project team to maintain the key performance indicators set by the PRODOC for each Output to keep consistency and comparability of M&E framework of the overall project. Since the ToCs are proposed to reflect Output level, the country ToCs have a number of similarities. However, the project team believes that the national consultation processes allowed each country component to make necessary adjustments in the country ToCs to fit with the local context. Having said so, the ILO took note of the recommendation and will consider developing more country-specific TOCs in the initial stage of the second phase.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation Based on the knowledge Management Strategy developed at an early stage, the project has been indeed taking such a direction to avoid re-inventing the wheel as much as possible and fill the resource gaps. However, this recommendation is noted and the project continues focusing on generating the data where strictly necessary.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation The Social Finance component has been considered one of the innovative aspects of the project’s work. The project decided to adjust the cost-sharing arrangement (from 60-40 to 70-30) with Social Finance Unit so that the Social Financial Office could have a little more time for the project’s specific activities. The project was also able to obtain approval from the donor for the Social Officer to continue his work until December 2022. In addition, the project hired a couple of consultants to support the social finance activities at the national level (e.g., Mali, Egypt, Cote d’Ivoire and Uganda).
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation Based on the cost extension approved by the donor, the project has been able to increase its allocation for implementing more field level activities. The ILO has been continuously working to improve administrative procedures. For example, the team of the Chief Regional Administrative Services of the Regional Office in Africa has been also looking at the internal administrative procedures aiming at optimizing/improving the procurement process.
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation The project received a cost extension of 7.5 months. This shall indeed allow the project to ensure the implementation of activities that experienced delays mainly due to COVID-19 pandemics. This shall also help the project to initiate and complete the discussion with the donor for developing the 2nd phase of the project including the possibility of adding new sectors or crops (e.g., sugarcane) or adding new countries (e.g., Cameroon, Ghana, and Kenya).
Accelerating action for the elimination of child labour in supply chains in Africa - Midterm evaluation The project has conducted value chain analyses using TORs developed through intensive discussions with the research unit of FUNDAMENTALS. For example, the value chain analyses conducted in Uganda and Nigeria provided comprehensive and meaningful information for the project’s intervention to address child labour in supply chains. The project team will widely share its results and methodology by publishing the reports of VCAs for replication in other projects focusing on supply chains and FPRW, especially child labour.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) We currently report on the number of Government partners trained. We also have evidence through the regulations that are changed as a result of ILO's work in Jordan (e.g. work permit requirements). Building the capcity of institutions is difficult to measure in the short term, but we will plan to monitor this in the forth coming years. however, the ILO is using an innovation approach to stengthen the capacity building of the gouverment institional capacity through learning by doing. ILO signed several impementation agreements with different ministries to transfer knowledge to them. Many of thoses entities started implementing different projects with other agencies as a result of our training.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) This is being addressed in these ways: a) some projects are developing separate gender strategies to complement the programme to ensure that gender is mainstreamed from analysis, to implementation to assessment. Some examples are gender strategies being prepared for EIIP in Jordan and Lebanon, and Better Work in Jordan. b) projects under development, even if they are not focusing specifically on women or gender equality, are including clear targets and expected outcomes for women, which requires a stronger gender analysis to inform how those targets can be achieved, and eventually measured. c) projects that focus specifically on women with examples such as the pay equity and childcare project in Jordan which selects to work in sectors where women's employment is high, and a project under discussion on women's employment and strengthening the regulatory environment and social attitudes.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) The ILO Decent Work Agenda is what attracts most donors to the agency. If it were not clear, the Office would not have the financial support that it currently benefits from. The ILO is currently engaging in the design of two compliance models one in agriculture sector and one in construction sector. The two models will be fully funded by donors.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) This has already been done and communicated with HQ ahead of a dialogue on the Global Compact for Refugees. The Office already leads several working groups in areas where it has expertise, for instance on the job training, EIIP, Employment services, and uses this space to share its methodologies and practices. A lessons learned and good practoces report was developed and will be dissemintaed to the stakeholders.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) As the programme portfolio evolved with teh crisis response, so have the mecanisms for coordination betwween the Programme of Support and ROAS. Regular meetings are being held with the programmes in Jordan. A clear oragnigramme was developed for the Programme of Support to address some of the issues. Quality appraisals by RPU of projects developed in Jordan recommend increased staffing.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) The ILO is alread a member of the Livelihoods Working Group, chaired by NRC and UNHCR, which meets month and includes UN Agencies, as well as INGOs. We are also an active participant of the UN Programme Coordination Team and the UNSDF. In addtion, ILO is partcipting in different project advisory committees e.g ACTED, CARE.
Promoting a decent work approach for syrian refugees and host communities - Final evaluation (RBSA) This is already a key advocacy message of the ILO in Jordan. Through our work under the work permit regime, we advocate for employers to regiser their employees in Social Security. We will be launching a study to estimate the cost of including agriculture workers, which will give our advocacy greater empirical evidence and weight at the national level.

[UNICEF] • ILO has successfully completed the profiling stage of the graduation approach, meeting its targets. During the initial profiling phase, the ILO, through GFJTU's employment and career guidance counsellors, conducted individual interviews with potential candidates.

The National Aid Fund (NAF) assured a continuity of assistance for Jordanian beneficiaries for 12 months from the start of employment.The regulations governing the concept of graduation for NAF are outlined in their directives, particularly in articles 10 and 11. A similar message was conveyed to Syrian refugees, with the exception that the UNHCR does not guarantee the duration it can sustain cash assistance to any beneficiary. However, enrollment in the program will not affect assistance distribution. The following is UNHCR's official message "“Working in formal or in an informal way or engaging in cash for work programmes or other livelihoods projects does not affect the assistance provided by UNHCR; noting that Cash assistance is provided for a limited duration depending on availability of funds and continued eligibility. We strongly encourage that your families have additional income sources and become more resilient". [ILO]

Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation The idea of rotating the management of the Global KSP among the founding partners has not been aggressively pursued, largely because any discussion of shouldering responsibility comes with costs and partners are not particularly keen to entertain the notion. Moreover, some have argued that they already have their websites and platforms and do not have the staff or resources to support another information structure. Still all partners are keen to keep the KSP under ILO leadership. Successful efforts have been made to ensure the sustainability of the KSP and Management is confident that the KSP will have enough resources to be kept and reinvigorated. On the matter of products jointly produced by SKILLS with other departments and the Bureaux, such as ACTEMP and ACTRAV, these were planned to be (and actually are) regularly uploaded on the platform and promoted via newly established social media platforms, mainly the KSP’s Twitter account which now boasts some 4,000 followers. Social media platforms allow for “tagging” others, for example, IOE, GAN, etc.., which, in many instances, provides partners with an opportunity to further raise the visibility of new knowledge products via their own Twitter accounts, further increasing awareness of the new items published. Moreover, new knowledge products produced by the ILO on skills will be regularly featured in the monthly Global KSP newsletter, which reaches nearly 1,200 subscribers representing, among others, ILO constituents, the private sector, development organizations, donors, and researchers. The newly established Employment Policy Newsletter, which is distributed to some 1,900 readers, also provides another outlet for sharing internally produced research products.
Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation The navigation structure of the platform is considered by many to be very good, allowing users to easily locate content in which they are interested. That said, improvements in terms of the site’s technical capacity to suggest/propose related content and to “discover” other products available on the platform, for instance, summaries of E-discussions, blogs written by skills specialists and podcasts, is needed and will be tackled as part of the plan to upgrade the platform. Moreover, the communications and outreach planned will highlight the need for development of products and content linked specifically to a key event, activity or initiative, contributing to an increase in demand and interest to the event as well as knowledge products created.
Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation The process of assessing the needs and knowledge gaps among the various target audiences remains a priority in the Skills management team. Towards this end and under the direction of management, both the team based at HQ and in the field regularly discuss, both in person and virtually, clients’ needs and how to meet these needs so that there is a constant “feedback loop” established that provides real time inputs for further research, development and implementation. It is ensured that the knowledge products are well embedded in the overall strategy of the Employment Policy Department.
Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation The uptake in E-discussions on a range of relevant and timely topics hosted on the Global KSP and promoted heavily via social media, newsletters, other websites and selected events have recently been hugely successful in attracting much interest and active engagement from participants around the world who are keen to share country-level stories, personal experiences, and raise questions on a host of skills topics. Participants have included, among others, skills practitioners and trainers, policy-makers, development experts, and, in some cases, former apprentices. According to Google Analytics, E-discussions are among the most viewed pages on the site, with several of them generating from 3,500 to over 5,000 views – certainly much more than managers would imagine an email campaign could achieve. Building on the success of the global conversations, under the revamped platform, a series of new E-discussions, to be moderated by ILO skills specialists and selected founding members of the platform are planned. The KSP is promoted in all relevant course in ITC and at country level during capacity building and knowledge sharing events. Efforts are made to ensure that the KSP is better promoted through field offices.
Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation A critical component to management’s efforts to reinvigorate and relaunch the platform, which incorporates a new and more modern look, will include a communications and outreach strategy designed to give greater visibility to the global product and to better explain to the different stakeholders the value afforded by the Global KSP in tackling the skills challenges they face, in particular, highlighting how it serves as a one-stop platform for accessing a range of relevant products from credible sources. Moreover, the strategy will focus attention on how stakeholders will be allowed to contribute their knowledge products, in their own language, directly onto the platform allowing others to learn from their experience.
Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation Management has been involved in formulating a new vision for the Global KSP which seeks to engage a wider group of stakeholders as contributors of knowledge, information and good practices on skills for a changing world of work that requires a more agile and flexible workforce committed to lifelong learning, and skills policies and systems that are better aligned to labour market demands. A plan for reinvigorating and modernizing the Global KSP was drafted with plans for its implementation scheduled to begin in mid-2020. The new and updated platform will establish more clear, obvious links with websites and other platforms operating within the department that share a similar focus on related themes, and will increase the visibility of ILO regional platforms in addition to those operated by its founding members.
Skills for employment and productivity in low-income countries (Global component) - Final Evaluation The ILO Skills Specialists based at both HQ and in the field have recognize the value and benefits afforded by having their knowledge products featured on the platform as well as promoted via established social media platforms. Unlike the earlier years when there was some reluctance from colleagues in terms of submitting content for the platform, the trend has been reversed with colleagues, including founding partners, approaching managers of the site for uploading and promoting knowledge products, events and initiatives. With plans to modernize and upgrade the technology used to operate the platform even further, supported by a global communications strategy that will capitalize on the power of social media, management is confident that this will result in a significant increase and a more robust database of knowledge products from a wide range of countries representing developing economies to advanced economies.

Advancing Social Protection in Cambodia - Midterm joint evaluation UNICEF to follow up
Advancing Social Protection in Cambodia - Midterm joint evaluation ILO Country Office had discussed the possibility of NCE with the donor, EU Delegation in Cambodia. The donor would not like to consider a NCE as the funding for the project was from a previous funding framework. ILO Country Office had discussed the possibility with EU that certain targets on Outcome 1 might not be achieved by the end of the project. A review of the work plan will be held to agree on the deliverables for 2024 to ensure that the project deliver as much as possible to the original outcomes and indicators
Advancing Social Protection in Cambodia - Midterm joint evaluation The ILO has consistently to advocate for legislation on the extension of health insurance to dependents via a compulsory mechanism and will continue to do so. Meanwhile, the sub-decree for the voluntary contribution of self-employed and dependents were promulgated in August 2023. The implementation agreement for the communication and registration campaigns will support the suggested extension of the social security schemes. The enrolment of the two new voluntary schemes will be tracked as part of the M&E of the implementation agreement.
Advancing Social Protection in Cambodia - Midterm joint evaluation ILO Country Office will be supporting the production of the annual report of NSSF for 2023 and the technical support will focus on ensuring that gender dis-aggregation will be made visable in the monitoring system. The gender lens has been applied and will continuously be applied on activities especially related to the extension of social security and formalization of the informal economy.
Advancing Social Protection in Cambodia - Midterm joint evaluation ILO Country Office under the ASPC project activities will produce a review of the modernisation efforts of the NSSF and will identify existing gaps and develop a plan for continuous capacity development. Similarly, under the project activities, the Social Security Regulator (SSR) under the GS-NSPC will also be supported in their institutional development plan. The project however will not be able tgo commit to supporting the government in developing a mechanism for allocating government finance resources for capacity building as this is not within the scope of the project and there is insufficient leverage for the project to influence budget decisions of the government.
Advancing Social Protection in Cambodia - Midterm joint evaluation There is ongoing efforts to explore synergies between SS and SA as guided by the Government counterparts as defined within the Project Document. The pending adoption of the new NSPPF 2030 represents an opportunity to further harmonize the SS and SA system through a lifecycle approach and potential linkages will be further explored within the scope of the project such as the referral pathways for the TVET programme.

Joint programme on labour migration governance for development and integration in Africa (JLMO) - SIDA (Sweden) funded - Midterm joint evaluation The phase 2 of the JLMP priority is under development and consultations are ongoing among implementing partners and the donor. For this reason, we believe an exit strategy may not be relevant. However, as part of the management of the JLMP priority I, implementing partners are phasing out the last activities and the assessment of the results of JLMP will feed into the design of JLMP II. In addition, as of January 2022, JLMP action will kick start and it is complementary to the JLMP priority within the 10 year -strategic framework of JLMP. As of now, JMLP I results have been disseminated at all occasions at national, regional and global levels ( Pan African Forum on Migration meeting, Global Compact on Migration review meeting, AUC and RECs regional meetings, ILO and IOM meetings)

Outcome-based funding component in support of P&B Outcome 1 Focus on skills development, including on vocational and professional training and education - Final Evaluation The Employment Policy Department takes notice of this recommendation, whose implications go beyond the specific ILO/Norway partnership (managed by the Skills and Employability Branch - SKILLS). The Department will look into how this recommendation can benefit the outcome-based portfolio in a broader sense. An option that will be considered is to formulate a set of rules that will automatically trigger action, based on projects' performance indicators. However, the action of choice cannot be pre-determined in all cases. For this reason, future governance structures will streamline decentralized decision-making processes in field components. In addition, a project-wide coordination mechanism will be maintained, keeping field components aligned with overall delivery objectives and donor requirements.
Outcome-based funding component in support of P&B Outcome 1 Focus on skills development, including on vocational and professional training and education - Final Evaluation A future partnership between the ILO and Norway will take this recommendation into account by including an inception phase at the start of the operations. The inception's duration will vary depending on the duration of the partnership. It will be devoted to setting up the project's infrastructure and it will ensure that, once the actual implementation phase begins, activities and delivery can start in a full-steam modality.
Outcome-based funding component in support of P&B Outcome 1 Focus on skills development, including on vocational and professional training and education - Final Evaluation In the context of a potential new phase of the ILO/Norway partnership, SKILLS - together with Country Offices and technical specialists in DWTs - will develop a project with a stronger thematic focus. This will make regional exchanges more needed and helpful, to the benefit of constituents, project teams, and the project itself.
Outcome-based funding component in support of P&B Outcome 1 Focus on skills development, including on vocational and professional training and education - Final Evaluation The recommendation is noted. In designing future development cooperation, the SKILLS Branch of ILO will look into solutions for linking broader global policy development and products to the outputs implemented in the field. Fewer, longer and larger-scale projects are more likely to reach the critical mass that enables long-term impact, and that makes it visible (and measurable).

Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation The proposed recommendation is part of the strategy and intervention model of the Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future or Work that the project team is currently implementing.
Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation The new project “Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future of Work” has allocated resources to assist ILO constituents and other key supply chain stakeholders in understanding the implications of mandatory due diligence in the EU and other key markets and to prepare them for the “new rules of the game”. The project will also seize the opportunity this development brings to promote the ratification and implementation of international labour standards.
Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation The new, follow-up project “Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future of Work” is building on and expanding the work of the SSCBFB project to explore cooperation with other relevant actors upstream. This includes exchanging experiences and achievements of advancing decent work in the coffee supply chain in Colombia with other coffee-producing countries and with key coffee supply chain stakeholders globally and in the EU. The same applies to fisheries in Namibia, where lessons learned and achievements are shared with constituents and key stakeholders in other countries and downstream along the fisheries supply chain.
Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation The project has successfully delivered all of the activities that were planned at the global level. This includes the publication of the so-called synthesis report, which summarizes research findings about decent work challenges and opportunities in the five supply chains, and makes these available to policy makers, constituents and other key stakeholders in the European Union and globally. It also includes the event entitled “Decent work in global supply chains”, which the project organized with the Dutch Ministry of Social Affairs and Employment and the Dutch Social and Economic Council, which counted with the participation of about 200 stakeholders in the related supply chains. The project is organizing an event on decent work in supply chains with the European Commission in June 2023, which will engage constituents and other key supply chain stakeholders at the EU and global level. Moreover, the ILO has negotiated with the European Commission a follow-up up project in the amount of €700,000 for a period of one year. The new project, entitled “Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future of Work”, is implemented in three countries and supply chains targeted in the first project. It builds on the global and EU-facing activities of the SSCBFB project and places even greater emphasis on engaging constituents and key stakeholders in the EU and globally.
Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation The European Commission has decided to finance a follow-up project entitled “Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future of Work” in the amount of €700,000 for a duration of one year. It was not possible for the European Commission to provide additional funding at this stage. But the interventions of the follow-up project will build on and consolidate the results of the SSCBFB project. In the countries and supply chains that are not part of the new project, the project team has identified synergies with other ILO projects and ways in which to continue SSCBFB project activities after the project closes. In both Viet Nam and Madagascar, the Better Work programme will take forward the work and continue to support ILO constituents and other key stakeholders in fostering more resilient, inclusive and sustainable supply chains. The project team has also updated its resource mobilization strategy and helped mobilize funding from Apple and Cargill to continue activities in Viet Nam and Colombia, respectively. In accordance with its resource mobilization strategy, the project team will continue to mobilize funding at the local level; not only from EU delegations but also from local government institutions such as the Malaysian Rubber Council and from other public and private sources. Finally, SECTOR mobilized USD 4 million from the Government of Japan for a three-year supply chain project in Indonesia (electronics), the Philippines (aquaculture) and Thailand (automotive manufacturing), which will take into account the lessons learned from the SSCBFB project.
Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation As pointed out to and acknowledged by the independent evaluator in several parts of the final report, gender was systematically mainstreamed into all aspects of the project, from research to policy recommendations. As per the recommendation, more attention will be devoted to issues related to inclusion and environmental sustainability in the follow-up project.
Sustainable supply chains to build forward better: Decent work in five global supply chains of key importance to the European Union for a fair, resilient, and sustainable COVID-19...- Final evaluation The new Supply Chains for a Sustainable Future or Work project builds on the SSCBFB project and focuses on strengthening the sectoral social dialogue mechanisms established under that project as well as the capacities of ILO constituents to organize and bargain collectively.

Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Sustainability plan/exit strategy: The project is working closely with its partners to promote sustainability of its training products and methodologies: 1) The Vietnam National OSH Institute is currently reviewing the WIND training programme, with the aim to adopt it as one of its nationally endorsed OSH training programmes which are promoted and supported by VN NIOSH; 2) A survey was carried out to identify the strengths and weaknesses of community organisations (incl. agricultural extension centres) to support the rollout of WIND training through their structures in a sustainable manner. Potential of Women's Union and Farmers' Union to be discussed further at national level. 3) The WIND training material is currently being edited to become an ILO publication. Once the editing process is completed, it will be widely disseminated, including among MNEs, to be applied in their supply chains. 4) VCCI-HCM has dedicated space on its website to promote OSH in agriculture, with focus on the coffee supply chain. Strengthen further the capacity of agricultural extension workers: The project has invested a lot in ToT training of agricultural extension workers from 5 Central Highland provinces. The National Agricultural Extension Center (NAEC) has now the human resources (plus sufficient financial resources from the national budget) to rollout OSH training to farmers. Adopting the Guide on "Reporting, recording and notification of occupational accidents and diseases": The MOLISA Safe Work Dept. aims to adopt it as a national tool, promote its usage and upload it on its website. Technical assistance for MOLISA for revision of OSH Law and development of a decree on occupational accident and disease insurance: These activities will be included in the new project. Dissemination of survey on coffee farmers' access to social protection and occupational health services: The study has been translated into Vietnamese. It will be widely circulated in early June 2023. Key policy makers received the study already as input to the revision of the Law on Social Insurance.
Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Mexico & Vietnam: The project completed two surveys: one on OSH needs and perceptions by women coffee farmers in Northern Vietnam, and another one on women coffee shop workers' OSH needs and perceptions, working in coffee shops in Hanoi. These surveys combine quantitative and qualitative data collection methods. Under the PPP with Nestle an in-harvest survey was conducted on working conditions on coffee farms and among collectors. Findings can be generalized. Qualitative and quantitative survey methods were used. A survey to analyse the impact of climate change on OSH for outdoor workers in agriculture is under implementation. Its focus is on qualitative survey methods. Upcoming research under the new project will focus on OSH assessments in agricultural sub-sectors other than coffee. Their design and methodology will take into consideration the learnings from the surveys the project conducted in the past. Andean Office: En Colombia el proyecto desarrollo diferentes investigaciones cuantitativas como los denominados "Accidentes y enfermedades laborales, percepciones y buenas prácticas en el sector cafetero colombiano" y "La experiencia de la Federación Nacional de Cafeteros de Colombia en seguridad y salud en el trabajo" con aspectos que son gerelizables. Por otra parte, se elaboro un estudio que permitiera acopiar información sobre población migrante denominado "Condiciones de trabajo y de salud de las personas que realizan actividades temporales o estacionales en cultivos de café ". Con el propósito de complementar la información generada en los primeros años, se realizaron dos investigaciones adicionales: la primera orientada a los servicios de salud en el trabajo en el país y la segunda sobre el perfil de la mujer productora de café en Colombia, que contribuya a la comprensión de aspectos claves del perfil sociodemográfico y laboral de mujeres productoras y trabajadoras del café, con especial énfasis en las condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo. En el país existía ausencia de información especifica sobre las condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo en el sector cafetero, los estudios fueron los primeros en su tipo que permitieron crear data en temáticas que no se habían abordado. La oficina andina se compromete a mejorar las acciones referidas a disfusión de estudios, investigaciones, publicaciones teniendo en cuenta los públicos objetivos a quienes va dirigido.

Dependiendo de los recursos que se movilicen, la OIT fortalecerá las capacidades y roles de los extensionistas FNC para dar continuidad a la promoción de la SST en el sector cafetero
Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Mexico & Vietnam: The project is currently producing a video that focuses on OSH improvements that farmers have implemented after they participated in the project's training. For dissemination through social media platforms and communication channels by project partners. Andean Office: La Oficina Andina se compromete a recopilar y sistematizar información y pruebas sobre buenas prácticas en fincas y explotaciones agrícolas como resultado de su participación en los Proyectos, y difundirla entre empresarios y trabajadores, para que sirva de base para la elaboración de políticas basadas en evidencia.
Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Mexico & Vietnam: Strengthening women participation in WIND: The project is currently developing a module on OSH and gender to complement its existing WIND training material. This will increase the relevance of WIND training courses for women. It has also identified a number of local trainers with who, in the future, aims to work with to train on gender equality, women's health and well-being in the workplace and other topics that, based on survey results, are of special interest by women coffee farmers and women coffee shop workers. To strengthen its network in the context of promoting gender sensitive OSH, the project will, in the future, engage more with the Vietnam Women's Union at national level. The VWU can influence national and provincial level policies and activities to promote OSH for women coffee farmers in particular. To validate the new WIND training material on OSH and gender and discuss the way forward, the project will organise a technical meeting at the end of May. Under the new ILO VZF Vietnam project partnerships with community schools to promote OSH as well as with the local Farmers' Union will be explored. Andean Office: La oficina andina se compromete a: 1. Se continuará las iniciativas que permitan promover la inclusión de la SST en los programas de formación, especialmente en las regiones en donde se implementan los proyectos. 2. Se realizará el diseño de una metodología de formación para trabajadores informales rurales, y desde enfoque diferencial, para lograr la promoción de la SST en estos sectores claves 3. En Colombia, la metodología WIND fue adaptada dentro del proyecto, lo que permitió generar una cooperación sur - sur desde México al fortalecer las capacidades de un representante de la Federación Nacional de Cafeteros y replicar en Colombia con mujeres caficultoras. Se continuará desarrollando procesos formativos a través de la modalidad de formación de formadores, ajustando los contenidos a los contextos y características de los sectores a intervenir.
Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Mexico & Vietnam: Collaboration with others on topics beyond OSH: The VZF Vietnam project has been cooperating closely with the Social Protection team of the CO Hanoi. A key outcome of this collaboration is a joint study on "Coffee Farmers' Access to Social Protection and Occupational Health Services". The project continues to promote access to social protection through its partnership with Nestle. Under the new ILO VZF VN project (the one from 15 June 2023 until 31 January 2024) the VZF VN may receive funding from the EU to implement a project to prevent child labour in the Vietnam coffee supply chain. The implementation of this project will involve close collaboration with colleagues from FUNDAMENTALS and other UN agencies. Engagement with the private sector: VZF Vietnam has a partnership project with Nestle in Vietnam to promote OSH, compliance with Labour Code requirements, child labour prevention and social protection in the Vietnam coffee supply chain. It has developed a Private Sector Engagement Strategy which it implements since April 2021. It collaborates closely with MNEs sourcing coffee from Vietnam and multi-stakeholder initiatives that promote a sustainable coffee production. Value propositions for tripartite partners: The new ILO VZF Vietnam project will include a focus on supporting the Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (MOLISA) in revising the OSH Law, in drafting a decree on voluntary occupational accident and disease insurance and improving their system on OSH data collection. With these activities, the project will respond to recently voiced needs and priorities of MOLISA. The project also aims to engage with VCCI-HCM in piloting adaptive measures to reduce the impact of climate change on outdoor workers' safety and health. (VCCI_HCM voiced special interest in climate change and its impact on businesses, labour productivity and workers' health.) It is planned to involve MNEs and multi-stakeholder initiatives in the implementation of these pilot measures as well. Andean Office: Con base a la nueva decisión de "un entorno de trabajo seguro y saludable" como principio y derecho fundamental al trabajo: 1. se realizará el acompañamiento en diferentes iniciativas que permita promover este principio y la posible movilización de recursos. 2. se realizará un proceso de dialogo para identificar la necesidad de apoyo técnico en la ratificación de los convenios. 3. Los proyectos que sean implementados buscarán generar una estrategia unificada para promover un trabajo decente, articulando los proyectos existentes tanto para el sector cafetero, la agricultura y en general los que tangan un enfoque rural. 4. Las iniciativas de proyecto asegurarán la vinculación de los representantes de los empleadores, trabajadores, gobierno nacional o las instancias claves que se consideran pertinentes, como la Federación Nacional de Cafeteros.
Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Mexico & Vietnam: The VZF Vietnam project is ending on 14 June 2023. It is in the process of preparing a new project of 7.5 months duration to continue activities to support OSH in the Vietnam coffee supply chain until January 2024. It will implement the recommendations under R1 as far as possible, taking into account that the project is of very short duration, with no inception phase. Andean Office: 1. Se buscará que el diseño de los proyectos relacionados con la seguridad y salud en el trabajo se realice mediante una estrategia conjunta, que permita aunar esfuerzos para el desarrollo de las actividades y resultados. 2. Se hará una ficha de cada uno de los proyectos en marcha, para identificar fácilmente áreas de trabajo común. 3. Cuando se trabaje con enfoque sectorial desde diferentes iniciativas, existirá una estrategia unificada entre los distintos proyectos. 4. En todos los casos, se buscará coordinar con iniciativas bajo la responsabilidad de las agencias del Sistema de Naciones Unidas, así como, con instituciones que se identifiquen como relevantes o prioritarias. 5. Se buscará que los proyectos cuenten con un equipo mínimo de un Coordinador Nacional y una Asistente Administrativa y Financiera. 6. Cuando los proyectos sean globales, existirá un dialogo permanente entre las personas encargadas de la sede y el personal técnico de la Oficina Andina, con el propósito de que este pueda estar adaptado a la realidad y contexto del país. La oficina andina cuenta en Colombia con un equipo responsable del diseño de proyectos que acompaña la formulación de las propuestas en general, de acuerdo con las directrices del manual de cooperación para el desarrollo de OIT, lo cual implica especificar en el PRODOC las secciones mencionadas en las recomendaciones. Los proyectos que se han formulado en el país contemplan las características sociodemográficas de la población objeto a intervenir, lo que permita generar acciones o intervenciones con enfoque género o de acuerdo con sus necesidades.
Independent Clustered Evaluation of Vision Zero Fund projects in the global coffee supply chain Mexico & Vietnam: The VZF VN project will promote the WIND training programme through already existing structures at community level, notably Women's Union, Farmers' Union, NAEC or the supplier networks of international coffee buyers. The existing WIND training programme includes already many good practices from other countries. It would benefit from adding video material. Under the current project and the new project, the testing of new rollout strategies is not planned. Their piloting will require cost and time effort that go beyond the resources available to the VZF VN project. Andean Office: A través del Fondo Visión Cero, se elaboró la primera Caja de herramientas sobre seguridad y salud en el trabajo (SST) para la cadena mundial de suministro del café, con instrumentos desarrollados y aplicados en América Latina. Además, se desarrollaron jornadas académicas con materiales andragógicos creados por la OIT para la gestión del riesgo en el sector que incluyeron metodologías, rotafolios y cartillas adaptadas al contexto del sector cafetero, así como programas radiales. Estos materiales se adaptaron a nuevos sectores o iniciativas en la ruralidad colombiana impactando no solo al sector cafetero, sino al sector agrícola en general. Contemplando que en el sector cafetero y en general la ruralidad cuenta con barreras como las dificultades de usar un computador, la capacidad de internet o datos en la región y los resultados del estudio de la OIT sobre las condiciones de trabajo y de salud de las personas que realizan actividades temporales o estacionales en cultivos de café, donde se resalto que la red social más usada por los trabajadores encuestados para comunicarse es el WhatsApp. Por lo anterior, se ha implementado un programa formativo a través de WhatsApp, que tomó como base las diferentes herramientas metodológicas desarrolladas por la Federación Nacional de Cafeteros y la OIT para mejorar la seguridad y salud en el trabajo en la cadena de suministro de café, tales como: Curso Virtual “Mi Finca un Entorno Saludable”, radio novela “mi finca, mi hogar y mi tesoro”, cartilla digital “Mi Finca, un entorno Saludable y seguro”, rotafolio de la cartilla, así como otros materiales de apoyo existentes relacionados con la temática en cuestión.

Addressing Education and Skills Gaps for Vulnerable Youths in Haiti: Promoting rural socio-economic development in South and Grande Anse Departments - Final Evaluation No se ha cumplido con esta recomendación durante la vigencia del proyecto FOPRODER. Sin embargo, la recomendación es pertinente y será tomada en cuenta en procesos futuros de otros proyectos de cooperación en Haití, como es el caso del Proyecto PROFIT, también financiado por Noruega.
Addressing Education and Skills Gaps for Vulnerable Youths in Haiti: Promoting rural socio-economic development in South and Grande Anse Departments - Final Evaluation En realidad, de las cuatro cadenas de valor valoradas en la nota conceptual para el nuevo proyecto, solo dos han sido finalmente seleccionadas, por su potencial de desarrollo en el departamento Grand'Anse, seleccionado para la intervención del proyecto: Cacao y Fruta pan. Con esta intervención en el marco del proyecto PROFIT se persigue el doble objetivo de, en primer lugar, fortalecer el sector del cacao fermentado de calidad, y promover la cadena de fruta pan. El fortalecimiento del sector del cacao requiere el establecimiento de infraestructuras que permitan la formación de los distintos actores y el aumento de las cantidades tratadas pos cosecha. La promoción de la cadena de fruta pan generará ingresos sustanciales para los pequeños productores. Este sector también permitirá luchar contra la desnutrición infantil y los riesgos alimentarios. El proyecto también generará decenas de empleos directos e indirectos y, por lo tanto, ganancias para gran parte de la población del departamento. I cannot be in full agreement with this recommendation because on the one hand to be able to meaningfully help in the area of fisheries you need sizeable investments in terms of cooling equipment to ensure adequate fishes cconservation and in boats that allow fishing in deep seas as shore fishing is saturated. With regard to mango, the problem came from a severe increase in insecurity that prevented the identified responsible company from visiting Haiti, something that was completely unforeseeable when we first initiated the project. Now, henceforth we selected 4 promising products on which we commissioned a market-oriented study and we precisely chose among the 2 selected value chains for the PROFIT project one (cocoa) that had already some sizeable existing market penetration in Europe, hence introducing a great factor of sustainability in our intervention.

Addressing Education and Skills Gaps for Vulnerable Youths in Haiti: Promoting rural socio-economic development in South and Grande Anse Departments - Final Evaluation El proyecto FOPRODER no ha establecido un Comité de seguimiento que involucrara las instituciones del Estado y representación de los actores sociales. Queda como lecciñón aprendida para la estrategia de salid y la sostenibilidad de futuros proyectos de cooperación, como el nuevo Proyecto con financiamiento de Noruega, PROFIT. In the new project initiative called PROFIT (Cocoa and bread fruit value chain development) lessons were drawn from the FOPRODER project to immediately recruit a gender specialist right from the inception of the project and all project activities were thought through with the intention of addressing both genders equally. In addition, a tripartite steering committe is about to be launched as a way to formally engage our tripartite constituents and improve on the governing structure of FOPRODER.
Addressing Education and Skills Gaps for Vulnerable Youths in Haiti: Promoting rural socio-economic development in South and Grande Anse Departments - Final Evaluation Reconocemos que la formación como Master Trainers de funcionarios del Proyecto no se ha llevado a cabo. Nuestro compromiso es que para intervenciones similares a futuro, vamos tener esta recomendación en debida cuenta.

Country Level Engagement and Assistance to Reduce Child Labor (CLEAR) - Final Evaluation The Project acknowledged this recommendation which was extremely useful. Under one remaining project activity the project looked to conduct cross-country learning between national stakeholders and constituents in Bangladesh and the Philippines. This is also a useful recommendation for future projects to share lessons learnt and good practices through online meetings.
Country Level Engagement and Assistance to Reduce Child Labor (CLEAR) - Final Evaluation As part of the CLEAR’s CMEP strategy the project has undertaken outcome-based research on the child labor monitoring system (CLMS) in Bangladesh. This study will cover the whole process of implementation and outcomes of the CLMS in Bangladesh to understand the current level of operation of the CLMS. Methodologically the focus is in descriptive analysis rather than in evaluating the work done. Lessons and Good Practices will be developed as part of this descriptive analytical approach. The Project also documented the lessons learned on training and development of the child labor free zones in Sri Lanka. This lessons learned was shared during the UN High Level Political Forum in June 2018. The project will work together with the A&P and R&E units to integrate LLs and GPs in their publications and work, in particular also through IPEC+ communication strategy. In fact this is taken place for instance for the MAP16 project. Lessons learned will also be shared through the Alliance 8.7 network.

Toutefois, étant donné qu'il est difficile d'envisager les indicateurs d'impact ade façon précise dans le cadre du projet vu que non seulement la responsabilité collective est très élevée à ce niveau au point où la contribution nette du projet sera presqu’impossible à isoler, mais également la mesure de ces indicateurs qui suppose normalement une enquête d’impact présente un coût très élevé, un accent sera mis sur la théorie du changement dans le cadre du Prodoc révisé et un suivi sera effectué pour veiller à la mesure des performances dans la mise en œuvre des plans stratégiques pluriannuels d’inspection du travail élaborés dans les pays dans le cadre du projet.
Améliorer la gouvernance du travail dans les TPE/PME et aider à la sortie de l'économie informelle en Afrique - Evaluation mi-parcours R3.1: Intégration d'une proposition financière dans le PRODOC révisé pour un appui spécifique au fonctionnement des points focaux et l’appui en moyens matériels et logistiques et discussions avec le bailleur pour approbation. R3.2: Intégration dans le PRODOC révisé d'une proposition d'appui financier à l’installation et au fonctionnement d’un cadre institutionnel multi-acteurs et discussions avec le bailleur pour approbation.

Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale Esta recomendación se acogió parcialmente. El diseño de la tercera fase del proyecto fue socializado con organizaciones y actores del mundo del trabajo y se recibieron observaciones respecto de las versiones anteriores, algunas de las cuales se acogieron. ESta trabajo se hizo coordinadamente con ACTRAV y ACTEMP. El resultado de estas socializaciones implicó la incorporación de ajustes tanto al documento de proyecto como a la carta acuerdo.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale Como se describe en el diseño de la tercera fase del proyecto, el comité técnico del acuerdo definirá los criterios de selección de participantes que considera el enfoque de género. Es importante considerar que el programa incluye como resultado: Documento que contenga el diseño y la puesta en marcha de una estrategia de difusión del proyecto con diferentes actores institucionales y empresariales de los sectores relacionados con los programas de formación que se impartirán, con el fin de facilitar el posterior proceso de inserción laboral o la relación de práctica de los participantes. Es necesario que este proceso de acercamiento al sector productivo inicie desde etapa temprana de la estrategia para el desarrollo del proceso de identificación de nuevas competencias que se demandan y, especialmente, para la consecución de contratos de aprendizaje, que en los términos del artículo 30 de la Ley 789 de 2002, inician desde la etapa lectiva de la formación. Nótese que el resultado se dejó, contractualmente, amplio de manera que pudiese hacer el diseño con el aporte de todos los especialistas y personal de la Organización. Sin embargo, si es importante precisar que el programa ha incluido la participación de la mujer en condiciones de equidad, en lo que a cupos de participación se refiere incluso a práctica laboral, no obstante lo anterior, es innegable que las mujeres tienen a su cargo, en gran proporción el rol de cuidadoras y por eso generalmente, se advierten índices elevados de deserción o no participación en escenarios de prácticas en las empresas, debido a las múltiples obligaciones en el hogar.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale Este tema se discutió ampliamente en las negociaciones del nuevo acuerdo, se realizó un concepto jurídico que fue enviado al MINTRABAJO y se generó una reunión con la coordinadora del grupo de víctimas y con el Director de la Oficina de Países Andinos, así mismo como con el Especialista en Administración de TRabajo y la Secretaría General del Ministerio del Trabajo, intentando la consecución anticipada de recursos para no encontrar barreras financieras para la ejecución, sin embargo, el Ministerio manifestó su imposibilidad de entregar dichos recursos. Se reiteró que no se trata de una donación y aclaró que no tiene un flujo de caja que le permita el pago anticipado de ninguna obligación no ejecutada. Es un tema que trasciende la parte técnica del acuerdo.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale Para la definición de los programas de formación profesional que se impartirán en la próxima versión de programa, el Ministerio del Trabajo tuvo en cuenta varias fuentes de información que reflejan las necesidades del sector productivo y la oferta pública existente en los municipios seleccionados para la intervención: i) en primero lugar, considero el estudio de caracterización de ciudades región realizado por la OIT y la OEI, contrastando esta información con ii) el reporte de vacantes del servicio público de empleo y; iii) en tercer lugar, tomaron en consideración la información suministrada por el programa de transformación productiva de Bancoldex y Ministerio de Comercio, Industria y Turismo, que recoge información sobre demanda de capital humano insatisfecha, para el programa de productividad que tiene a su cargo.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale El diseño de la fase 3 del proyecto EDUCÁNDONOS PARA LA PAZ (COL/19/03/COL) contempla como se ha realizado la participación de diferentes grupos de interés, que considera la creación de un comité consultivo conformado por las organizaciones sindicales y de trabajadores que permita un desarrollo participativo de la estrategia y la toma oportuna de decisiones. Este comité se organizará únicamente de parte de OIT, pero se trasladarán todas sus recomendaciones al Ministerio y a la OEI.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale No es posible acoger esta recomendación y es importante que la OIT considere que se trata de un programa para una población de especial protección constitucional que en su mayoría migró como víctima del conflicto a las ciudades principales del país; el programa selecciona las ciudades de acuerdo al número de víctimas en cada una de ellas. Recordemos que se trata de un programa con un enfoque especial orientado a la reparación integral de las víctimas del conflicto armado.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale (1) La nueva versión del proyecto incluye el siguiente resultado: 4. Selección de participantes: Base de datos con la información de los participantes seleccionados, de acuerdo con los criterios establecidos por el Comité Técnico de la estrategia. El resultado final de la selección de los participantes dependerá, por lo menos, de los siguientes criterios: i) perfilamiento laboral que incluye el estudio de hoja de vida; ii) análisis de intereses vocacionales, iii) evaluación de conocimientos iniciales en matemáticas, lecto-escritura y sistemas informáticos. La selección de participantes deberá incluir un 20% adicional a los 1420 estudiantes previstos para el desarrollo total de la estrategia por parte de las organizaciones aliadas, ello con el fin de contrarrestar la posible deserción escolar que se presente. Como se advierte el análisis de intereses vocacionales ya se incorporó en el programa, desde la versión 2018, se estableció el test de orientación vocacional y además los estudiantes recibieron un módulo de orientación socio-ocupacional por parte del Servicio Público de Empleo, en el marco de la ruta de empleo que se desarrolló en el marco de la estrategia. (2) El anexo técnico del programa incluyó el siguiente perfil docente, en su numeral 3.6.4.: Perfil de los formadores: El Perfil de los formadores que debe tener el Programa es el siguiente: a) Ser técnico o profesional en la disciplina a formar, o directamente relacionada con la misma y, b) Certificar experiencia técnica o profesional mínima de dos (2) años en la disciplina a formar o certificar experiencia como docente del Programa a dictar o en áreas relacionadas, durante al menos tres (3) años. Estos requisitos resultan necesarios teniendo en cuenta que se trata de formación profesional y además están acordes con los que utiliza habitualmente el SENA para la consecución de instructores, quienes de parte suya además reciben formación adicional. (3) El resultado 6 de la carta acuerdo establece: 6. Etapa de formación lectiva: documento que dé cuenta de la formación a al menos 1420 participantes en: i) nivelación de competencias claves solo para los estudiantes que se identifiquen desde el proceso de selección con esta necesidad; la nivelación de competencias deberá desarrollarse previo al inicio de los programas de formación técnicos laborales por competencias e incluirá al menos competencias en matemáticas, lecto-escritura y sistemas de información… Como se advierte en la carta acuerdo, sí se incluyó la nivelación de competencias y dentro de ella, se incluyen los sistemas de información. (4) El resultado 6 de la carta acuerdo establece: 6. Etapa de formación lectiva: documento que dé cuenta de la formación a al menos 1420 participantes en: i) nivelación de competencias claves solo para los estudiantes que se identifiquen desde el proceso de selección con esta necesidad; la nivelación de competencias deberá desarrollarse previo al inicio de los programas de formación técnicos laborales por competencias e incluirá al menos competencias en matemáticas, lecto-escritura y sistemas de información; ii) Fortalecimiento de habilidades blandas; iii) Emprendimiento con enfoque en industria creativa; iv) Módulo de formación en derechos fundamentales en el trabajo y en protección social. Como se advierte en la carta acuerdo, sí se incluyó la formación en competencias blandas. (5) Socializar a modo de reconocimiento las transformaciones individuales y colectivas: Esta actividad debe consultarse con la Unidad de Víctimas, y esto debe entenderse en la Organización, pues se trata de víctimas del conflicto armado interno, la mayoría de las cuales requieren especial tratamiento de su información personal.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale El diseño de la tercera fase del proyecto se tiene previsto incorporar acciones orientadas al aumento de la productividad a través de la creación de valor agregado y disminución de costes sin i) desdibujar el objetivo de la política pública y el foco del programa: las víctimas del conflicto armado y ii) tomando en consideración el reducido tiempo que se tiene para esta tarea. Para llevar a cabo estos ajustes se contará con el apoyo técnico de la oficial regional de evaluación y al especialista técnico de empleo, responsable supervisar técnicamente Colombia
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale La carta acuerdo incluye los siguientes resultados, que involucran incluso el acercamiento al sector productivo para la consecución de contratos de aprendizaje desde etapas tempranas del proyecto, lo cual no se había hecho en versiones anteriores: 3. Documento que contenga el diseño y la puesta en marcha de una estrategia de difusión del proyecto con diferentes actores institucionales y empresariales de los sectores relacionados con los programas de formación que se impartirán, con el fin de facilitar el posterior proceso de inserción laboral o la relación de práctica de los participantes. Es necesario que este proceso de acercamiento al sector productivo inicie desde etapa temprana de la estrategia para el desarrollo del proceso de identificación de nuevas competencias que se demandan y, especialmente, para la consecución de contratos de aprendizaje, que en los términos del artículo 30 de la Ley 789 de 2002, inician desde la etapa lectiva de la formación. 9. Etapa de formación práctica: documento que contenga los resultados del desarrollo de la formación práctica y que, al menos, incluya: i) Resultados del desarrollo del acercamiento al sector productivo, incluso desde el inicio de la estrategia para la consecución de contratos de aprendizaje, el acercamiento al sector productivo, deberá incluir la identificación de empresas con necesidades de capital humano de los sectores relacionados con los programas de formación técnicos laborales; ii) Resultados del proceso de suscripción de acuerdos con las empresas, que deberá incluir concretamente, empresas vinculadas a la estrategia, tipo de empresa, número de estudiantes que vincula, tipo de vinculación, entre otros aspectos; iii) Resultados del desarrollo específico de la etapa práctica, que deberá incluir, plan de trabajo de la práctica o contrato de aprendizaje o vínculo laboral, número de horas desarrolladas, informes de desarrollo de la práctica por estudiante, informes de tutorías y supervisiones, entre otros aspectos. 13. Documento que contenga los resultados de la articulación con el Servicio Público de Empleo, para gestionar con los prestadores de las ciudades en las que se desarrolla el programa, servicios de gestión y colocación de empleo a favor de los participantes del programa. La OIT y la OEI entregarán un informe de toda la gestión empresarial que realice para promover la vinculación laboral de los participantes de la estrategia.
Capacidades laborales para el trabajo decente ... para la población víctima del conflicto armado en Colombia - Evaluación finale Ambos tipos de indicadores se incluirán como criterio de medición de la efectividad del programa y en cualquiera caso, es necesario medir la calidad de la formación para responder a las necesidades del sector productivo. No obstante, se resalta que parte de esta tarea la tiene a su cargo el mismo Estado, ya que son sus instituciones las competentes para autorizar que un programa de formación se oferte o no, lo cual incluye incluso un análisis previo de qué tan saturado se encuentra el mercado de trabajo de personas formadas en diferentes áreas y sí existen aún vacantes para los buscadores de empleo formados.

Chantier-école d'entretien routier en Mauritanie - Evaluation final Le projet « PROMOPECHE » dans sa structuration a prévu une composante « développement du secteur privé » qui comprend : des formations pour les structures des services d’appui aux entreprises (SAE) en 2 phases de 4 mois puis de 18 mois. un processus d’identification des besoins des acteurs du privé et un plan de formation ont été mis en place. L’objectif et de qualifier les acteurs privés d’appui aux entreprises, des secteurs formel et informel. Il est prévu dans le plan d’activité du projet PROMOPECHE, de mettre en œuvre un dispositif pilote de validation des acquis de l’expérience professionnelle (VAE) en collaboration avec les organisations professionnelles et les services publics concernés. L’expérience permettra de mettre en place une stratégie opérationnelle ( ou plan d’action) pour élargir vers d’autres secteurs.
Chantier-école d'entretien routier en Mauritanie - Evaluation final Les projets PROMOPECHE et PECOBAT inscrivent les actions menées suivant les 3 axes principaux en cohérence avec la recommandation : - Formation et employabilité des jeunes - Appui aux services de l’intermédiation pour l’emploi et l’insertion - Appui au entreprises et secteur privé. Les acteurs institutionnels et le secteur privé représenté par les organisations professionnelles et patronales sont des acteurs incontournables pour concrétiser la mise en œuvre de l’ensemble des actions devant améliorer la formation et l’emploi des jeunes, l’adéquation des besoins en qualification de la main d’œuvre à la demande économique. Le BIT, peut appuyer les acteurs nationaux dans cette recommandation.
Chantier-école d'entretien routier en Mauritanie - Evaluation final L’exemple de PECOBAT en ce qui concerne l’évaluation de la satisfaction des élèves est appliqué dans PROMOPECHE. Une étude (financée par le projet PECOBAT) est lancée pour la mise en place d’un plan d’insertion et un formulaire pour une ligne de base. L’objectif de ce dernier outil étant de mesurer le changement de comportement du jeune tout au long du processus de formation. L’outil ligne de base sera mis en œuvre dans le cadre de la formation des jeunes dans les « chantiers école » d’infrastructure du projet « PROMOPECHE ».
Chantier-école d'entretien routier en Mauritanie - Evaluation final Les projets « chantier école » intègrent la dimension genre, dans leur mise en œuvre avec des indicateurs de résultats assez bon au niveau de la participation des femmes comme bénéficiaires. Il y a lieu d’améliorer qualitativement la prise en compte du genre. Il y a un manque de connaissance sur le genre à combler par des études comme proposé dans cette recommandation (étude diagnostic, études de marché, implantation de filières de formation adaptée au genre, …). Le Bureau organisera des études spécifiques et des formations pour renforcer les capacités des collègues sur la prise en compte du genre
Chantier-école d'entretien routier en Mauritanie - Evaluation final Les projets PROMOPECHE et PECOBAT) inspirés par le concept « chantier école « vont poursuivre dans le sens d’améliorer l’insertion, la polyvalence et l’employabilité des jeunes. Dans le cadre de la mise en œuvre du du volet infrastructure du projet « PROMOPECHE »,. Il est prévu de mobiliser les 2 GIE déjà crées, par des contrats de sous-traitantes d’une part et de donner des formations modulaires à certains des formés sur des métiers de première supervision de chantier (chef d’équipe, chef de chantier, logisticiens, gestionnaire de parc matériel, etc.). Dans la recherche de polyvalence il est prévu des formations en entrepreneuriat et des actions d’insertion des jeunes formés dans les projets du BIT en Mauritanie. En matière de suivi, un contrat de suivi insertion post formation est en cours avec le Bureau Mauritanien d’Insertion (BMI) une structure privée de placement et insertion des jeunes du programme « chantier école » du BIT en Mauritanie. Le bureau assure tout le processus d’accompagnement collectif et individuel des bénéficiaires.
Chantier-école d'entretien routier en Mauritanie - Evaluation final Pour le suivi interne : Un logiciel de suivi et évaluation sera utilisé permettant de quantifier les résultats du projet « PPROMOPECHE », tel qu’il a déjà été mis en place dans les projets « chantiers école » pour le suivi des chantiers, des formations et des insertions ; Pour le suivi des résultats : Une attention particulière sera portée au suivi de l’insertion des bénéficiaires. D’autre part, en ce qui concerne les indicateurs de micro finance des Groupes d’Epargne et de Crédit, un Système d’Information de Gestion spécifique (SIG VLSA) sera mis en place et pourra fournir un suivi mensuel des indicateurs standards de micro finance. Des enquêtes préalables au démarrage des activités et d’établissement des niveaux de références, seront associées à des enquêtes en cours de projet et aux évaluations finales de mesure des résultats du projet. Un dispositif de suivi évaluation global solide et adapté reste à construire
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation Better Work agrees with the set recommendations made by the evaluator. In Q2 2018, Better Work contracted a consulting firm to review the current systems platform and to understand the data and systems needs of Better Work staff and external users, constituents and stakeholders in order to make recommendations with regards to data management solutions. That is to say, the firm will make recommendations for how Better Work can more effectively and efficiently collect, analyse, visualize, report and share data. Through this review, the firm has been consulting with Better Work staff, representing all functions in the programme, as well as other users and stakeholders. Based on a preliminary review of their findings, the consultants’ recommendations are in line with those of the evaluator, including the need to rethink the user interface and experience and the need for an agile system to respond to data demands and requests of different users for different purposes. The consultants have also noted the need for integration of data from assessments, training and advisory and beyond. As a first step, our own staff developer has worked with a consultant to link the non-compliance issues raised in an assessment with the newly online improvement plan where advisory and training information can now also be included. The new functions are being launched now but we will look to optimize the solutions based on the final recommendations of the IT consultant (expected in mid-August) and resource availability.
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation BW agrees with this recommendation. We will explore options with buyers respectively.
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation We recognise the value in this recommendation and will take the following steps to promote overall coherence of the new strategies and avoid potential conflicts • Bi-annual meetings with key donors in which implementation of strategies are reviewed • Bi-annual meetings with the BW Advisory Committee in which implementation of strategies are reviewed • Meetings with national stakeholders (PACs X 3 annually) will advise and review strategy implementation at national level
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation The new Better Work strategy sets out the directions we will take to amplify our impact. One objective is to strengthen the capacity of national constituents to govern labour markets and labour relations more effectively. This is long-term work that will involve Better Work collaborating closely with other functions within the ILO and the World Bank Group. This includes: i) working with national institutions and social partners to approve their ability to engage the private sector and to better understand and utilize commercial incentives that influence business for stronger workplace compliance; ii) foster closer cooperation and joint action plans between the private sector and national gvt agencies - this collaboration may be focused on strengthening labour laws; iii) make BW tools and approaches widely available to national partners and help adapt them for thir use; iv) collaborate with ACTRAV and ACTEMP, FUNDAMENTALS, GED, INWORK to strengthen the capacity and ownership of employer and workers organizations in the area of gender, compliance, constituent representation, social dialogue, collective bargaining and freedom of association. Better Work is now acting on these commitments in different ways e.g. integrated approach to delivering techn. assist. and policy engagement in Ethiopia, alignment of interventions between ILO and WBG/IFC e.g. Jordan productivity programme in satellite factories; collaboration with labour inspectors in Indonesia to develop stronger compliance frameworks.
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation Better Work will consider those suggestions and explore options for revising indicators and conducting client-satisfaction surveys as required. This exercise may be included as part of a general performance monitoring and M&E indicator consolidation and integration exercise.
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation Better Work agrees with this assessment and set of recommendations. Moving into the next strategic phase, the communications team is focusing on sharpening the program’s messaging and reaching a wider audience. The program has identified all key audiences, including those mentioned in the recommendations, and has a clear strategy for how to ensure more targeted outreach and impact through social media, the Better Work website, strengthened relationships with journalists, and direct communications.
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation a) The processes for developing, delivering, measuring and potentially integrating the IFC pilot projects are currently been systematized across the Better Work global and country teams. For all current pilot projects – including the environmental pilot in Vietnam and the productivity pilots in Jordan, Nicaragua and Haiti – the country teams are now directly involved in the oversight and execution of the pilots. The program is also finalizing a set of criteria that will be used across pilot projects to jointly determine between the IFC, BW global and BW country teams whether the pilot activities should be incorporated into the Better Work factory service package. As one example of how the engagement at the national level is being increased, the IFC will hold an event with Better Work Vietnam in October, including Management Group members from the IFC, to discuss how to increase and deepen engagement on the ground. The pilots under way are also being more actively discussed at buyers forums, in newsletters and in other communications and events to increase their visibility. b) Better Work agrees with this assessment, although the delays were in part due to a conscious decision on the part of Better Work and the IFC to slow implementation in order to adapt the original approach to better align and complement the environmental HIGG index work of the Sustainable Apparel Coalition (SAC). As mentioned above, the IFC and Better Work have now developed a set of criteria against which to rate the feasibility of incorporation of environmental services into the Better Work factory package. These criteria will be assessed for a final decision by the Better Work Management Group in October 2018.
Better Work Global - Phase III - Final Evaluation Better Work has just finalized a fully integrated ILO strategy for the garment sector in Ethiopia. This experience will be replicated in other new country programmes. Better Work is also in the process of deepening its engagement with other units such as INWORK in the area of wages or industrial relations and is fully on track with regard to implementing the collaboration strategy with Score.

Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Final evaluation The SCORE Programme started to revise the Phase IV M&E system to track progress in impact-oriented outputs and outcomes. It will work closely with national project stakeholders to ensure that the project’s exit strategies are clearly communicated to them and collaborate further to achieve project sustainability after 2024. The SCORE Programme conducted the Peru impact assessment and the institutional impact assessment to better understand project’s impact and sustainability in SMEs and implementation partners. This was not to replace outcome-based monitoring, but to complement the regular evaluations as they are more focused on relevance, efficiency, coherence, effectiveness, rather than impact and sustainability aspects.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Final evaluation The SCORE Programme provided at least 2-3 marketing trainings for SCORE implementation partners during Phase III in each country. It will continue to build capacity of implementation partners during Phase IV, in marketing and business development so that they become better at advocating and selling SCORE Training to SMEs and other lead buyers and development agencies. It will also strengthen the collaboration with national project stakeholders to develop better marketing campaigns to increase visibility of SCORE Training at national level and develop a country specific communication strategy, supported by multidisciplinary team of experts, based on the local needs and budget availability.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Final evaluation ILO allocated its regular budget and personnel to support the graduated countries from the SCORE Programme, beyond the donor funding. As per the donor agreement, it might be challenging to provide additional donor funding outside of the Phase IV project target countries. The SCORE Programme has conducted feasibility studies at the beginning of the intervention in new implementation countries. This practice would continue as per the final evaluation recommendation. The Programme has already indicated the leading agency in three countries (Tunisia, Bolivia, and Ethiopia). In Myanmar, it is not part of the project implementation strategy due to the current political unrest. It will adopt the private sector/market driven strategy to achieve the sustainability of SCORE Training after 2024. In most SCORE implementation countries, the SCORE Programme is no longer involved in selecting the target enterprises and it provides limited subsidy to implementation partners to deliver SCORE Training. Rather, enterprises are recruited to participate in SCORE Training by implementation partners. The SCORE Programme would share the recommendation from the evaluation, but each implementation partner will make their own decisions.
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) programme, Phase III - Final evaluation The SCORE Programme has been promoting social dialogue at all levels in project implementation. This includes equal representation of workers and managers in SCORE Training at SMEs, NTAC meetings, and any other policy related trainings for project stakeholders. It will continue promoting the importance of social dialogue and labour law compliance. The SCORE Programme will adopt a more participatory approach in developing communication and marketing strategy, and exit strategy during Phase IV. It is to strengthen the national ownership of SCORE Training after 2024. However, it is difficult for the Programme to anticipate the Government’s financial support in SCORE Training promotion and implementation, ahead of SCORE Phase IV activities. As such, it is difficult to include the government’s potential cash or in-kind contribution details in the project document.

The project will to the extent possible strengthen linkages with other skills programs actors.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation This will be part of the revised Terms of Reference for the advisors
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation The Project shall enter into Memorendum of Understanding's with participating Municipalities where it is clearly stated that the Municipalities will be responsible for maintenance and operations and that they commit to allocate resources for that purpose. At the completion of works, the project will officially hand over the project to the Municipality. ILO and UNDP will carry out post project visits to make sure that Municipalities are adhering to the agreement. Where this is not the case, ILO and UNDP would approach the Municipalities and the Municipal Councils and explain that this will have consequences for future collaboration. These steps will be included in the Monitoring & Evaluation Plan for the next phase.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation Whilst there will be no formal collaboration with the World Bank in Phase III, ILO will work closely with the Council of Development and Reconstruction and the Ministry of Public Works and Transport to identify priority maintenance activities, which will be included in Phase 3 to demonstrate labour-based road maintenance as an effective strategy to sustain quality while creating employment.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation The revised project selection criteria will be introduced in the Project Management Committee Meeting including the emphasis on labour intensity as a key selection criteria. This will allow identification and selection of projects more suitable to labour-based implementation. The project team will continue to produce cost comparison for various activities, to provide further arguments for selection of appropriate projects.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation A budget has been proposed in the concept for Phase III for development of knowledge products, however the scope of this work will be determined based on the donor feedback.

Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation An initial longlist of priorities has been developed by ILO and UNDP. This initial longlist has been submitted to KfW for no objection and was then submitted to the Project Management Committee in order to choose the projects in January 2019. Discussions are currently taking place in regards to the projects due to the fact that a new government was formed in February 2019.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation While it is too early to assess the feasibility of embedding the project within Ministry of Public Works and Transport, the project will work with relevant Ministries (eg Ministry of Public Works and Transport and Ministry of Agriculture) and raise awareness of the EIIP strategy.
Employment Intensive Infrastructure Program (EIIP) - Midterm Evaluation The Maps of Risks and Resources (MRR) will remain the main tool in a broader project identification framework. Municipal priorities will be identified through the Maps of Risks and Resources (MRR) (noting that the updating process continues through 2018). In addition, a number of targeted intervention such as projects tailored to women, projects benefitting disabled and road maintenance will be identified. The current selection criteria will be updated including a stronger emphasis on labour-intensity as a key criteria, where labour cost should be at least 35% of the total project cost for each project. The revised selection criteria will be circulated internally between the agencies, and KfW input will be requested before sharing them with the Project Management Committee (PMC).
Shan State: Peace reconciliation and development through community empowerment - Final evaluation The project is very gender sensitive on all activities undertaken. Gender has its strong indicators designed, and EU also strongly demand the data on gender participation.
Shan State: Peace reconciliation and development through community empowerment - Final evaluation It is in the heart of the project to conduct a multi stakeholders platform, where all stakeholders could be brought along to interact and sensitize on each others' position, desire on peace.
Shan State: Peace reconciliation and development through community empowerment - Final evaluation This is peace support project, and therefore sustainability the project was anticipating to see is 1) Peace is more solid, 2) the space to provide technical inputs to the people on the ground is increasingly less threatened. FOr the community to be able to 1) demand more of activities of this type, 2) see that their lives are not entirely about running away from bullets any longer, and there are more hopes to live m=normal life, and 3) their voice matters in all works designed and implemented for and by them. The 3rd point is very critical as in Myanmar - the whole society is heavily top down, and people voice was never counted.
Shan State: Peace reconciliation and development through community empowerment - Final evaluation All of the recommendations are in the plan of the project, and have been implemented. It is noted that the planning for regular and frequent PAC meeting was not in the original plan, only for the project management to realize that more regular meeting and sharing information is needed, then PAC is therefore for set up to be once a month at least, and this has implication on provision of the budget toward the end of the project. However, PAC was held every month and sometimes some staff could not travel to take part of (such as admin finance staff) technology was used to allow her to be present in the meeting virtually.
Shan State: Peace reconciliation and development through community empowerment - Final evaluation The regular PAC meeting was held, and designed to be the platform to share information among partners and plan works together. Communication in Myanmar society is a major problem, as the society was with extreme impunity and seriously lack of rule of law application for decades. This resulted into people are largely skeptical toward one another, and to volunteer information and share views are not part of their DNA. It took time and extra efforts made by the ILO to finally made the PAC to be the forum that partners shared information real time on conflict situation on the ground. This is the major step forward that the project brought about good impact. However, it is believe that it takes longer time than project's duration to finally get the partner agencies to work well as ONE team. But investing on PAC is the way to go and the project has achieved that goal. R.2.1 At the outset of the programme, consortium members developed MEAL plan together and Meal Plan has become part of the signed agreement between the ILO and the consortium partners. Originally PAC was planned for taking place once a year and as and when needed, but to increase the clear communication, the frequency of PAC meetings were changed to every month in the final year. R.2.2 With an exception to the ILO, partners' staff turnover is rather high as the areas of intervention is remote and difficult.

Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation During the design stage of phase IV of PRM project, the project team conducted extensive brainstorming sessions in direct cooperation with the ILO Regional Office for Arab States and DWT specialists to formulate a comprehensive framework that builds on the project previous interventions and introduces modifications to address gaps or recommendations identified in the evaluation. The involvement of backstopping technical specialists provided technical direction, the Appraisal process furhter supported project design and reflected results-based-management (RBM) structure and connection to strategic goals.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The ILO acknowledges the importance of incorporating cross cutting issues from the design stages and throughout implementation. In the design of Phase IV of the project, the ILO incorporated improvements in core components that shaped the project over the past years, including: (i) the integration of cross-cutting priorities (e.g: environmental sustainability, (ii) ensuring that other vulnerable groups, such as People with Disabilities benefit from the project, and (iii) introducing innovative approaches where appropriate (e.g: digital solutions).
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation There is no basis for an audit as such but the points on ensuring close oversight are well taken. The ILO project team’s approach towards the monitoring of main partners achievements is to first of all; work closely with the partner to strengthen the institutional capacities to ensure the submission of adequate and verified documents that reflect accurate data. Secondly, an internal financial and technical monitoring committee is formed to conduct random inspections, especially if signs of underperformance are depicted, to advise on corrective measures when needed, as a structured and more robust form of monitoring steps going forward.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The ILO has considered this limitation in its upcoming proposal to PRM and proposed implementing a sustainability driven, cost effective model for the implementation of employment, skills development and work permits services which will address minimizing the financing of unsustainable activities. The ILO's Programme of Support operates a network of 13 Employment Service Centres (ESCs) across Jordan since 2017. Over the years, the centres have succeeded in expanding the provision of employment services to Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanians by offering a physical place where jobseekers can meet counsellors face to-face to seek employment and training advice, job matching services and career guidance. The uniqueness of the ILO-PRM partnership is that it encompasses all key areas of support needed to help beneficiaries transition into formal employment and livelihoods from skills development to work permits. the ILO, through phase IV, will expand the scope of ESCs so that they serve as a hub for delivering the different aspects incorporated under the project so that target beneficiaries have access to more holistic and comprehensive services, including career counselling, RPL, referral to skills development and WBL, and work permits. In tandem, the ILO is working closely with different national stakeholders to ensure the sustainability of ESCs and their institutionalization so it can gradually phase out its support. In addition, the project proposal focused on the importance of setting up a sustainable and scalable interventions to support women-owned businesses from the previous phases of the project. As such efforts will be geared towards transferring and institutionalizing ILO tools and training programmes under outcome two by building the capacity of eligible national partners and investing in digital training solutions. The approach is meant to ensure the sustainability and replicability of training to beneficiaries.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The newly developed proposal for PRM (phase IV) is in line with this recommendation and expands further on the topic of self-employment and entrepreneurship, particularly among youth and women within the context of Women Do Business. the proposal focuses on supporting women business owners who had been trained and funded in previous phases to scale their businesses and expand their access to markets through innovative and sustainable solutions. The proposed project will capacitate the established network of women by providing them with advanced training, connecting them with key resources and tools, formally registering them, as well as supporting them in providing one-on-one and group advisory and training sessions to their peers through pilots. the project will then integrate scalable women-owned enterprises with business aggregators, e-commerce platforms and other available marketplaces to expand their linkages with domestic and external markets and in turn scale and sustain their business. This allows target enterprises to alleviate the burdens associated with transportation, marketing, and some other business functions.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The current ILO-PRM partnership (phase III) already addressed the importance of engaging with sectoral associations under objective one “Enhanced employment readiness of Syrian refugees and vulnerable Jordanians through targeted and demand-driven skills development approaches including in sectors where women's participation is high or there is potential to expand”. Through capitalizing on the ILO’s areas of expertise in skills and employment, the programme will guide job seekers and offer them with training opportunities in a demand-driven approach so that they are well-suited for employment.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The ILO is in full agreement with this recommendation and the importance of assigning adequate resources to fulfil such assessments. Currently, the ILO is working with social partners to implement institutional reforms, in order to improve the TVSDC’s capacity for effective governance to ensure significantly improved employment outcomes of the skills training. The objective of this initiative is to increase the transparency and efficiency of the TVSDC’s internal structures, improve its service delivery, enhance its cost effectiveness, and enable to the organization to maintain strong partnerships with private sector representatives and other major stakeholders, participation of private sector in skills governance and partnership in skills delivery and job placement.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The ILO agrees that there is room for improvement with regards to strengthening coordination and engagement with strategic stakeholders and employer representatives. The ILO’s project team will build on the partnerships and collaborations made with previous employer representatives to maintain open communication channels and allow for exchange of inputs throughout the project cycle, starting with preliminary discussions during project design stages to assess interest in engagement and plan interventions of relevance.
Formalizing Access to the Legal Labour Market for Refugees and Host Communities in Jordan, Phase II - Final evaluation The project team with ROAS support is ensuring that an M&E framework is developed and put in place during the inception period of future projects/ new phases. Programme and M&E backstopping is also provided by the Regional Programming Unit within ROAS and relevant Decent Work Team specialists.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The project is in the process of collecting good practices on OSH and these will be disseminated through various channels and using various media once available. The project already published a brochure capturing success stories stemming from a range of seven (7) Japanese funded projects in Asia and at global level (2023). Further good practices from other projects will be identified, consolidates and disseminated. It is to be noted that such an endeavour shall be undertaken in the medium-term.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation Safety + Health for All, including the VZF, is already working closely with the Social Protection Floor Programme through the implementation of joint projects (COVID-19 response, research on the integration of occupational health services and social health protection systems, new joint project to improve the safety and health of workers and their access to social health protection in the agri-business sector in Côte d’Ivoire and Kenya. The Flagship will further strengthen this collaborative work.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The LABADM/OSH Branch through its Programme and Operations (OPS) team is exploring ways of measuring and documenting impact in target countries. This includes multi-country/multi-theme study of impact of OSH projects on direct beneficiaries. Initial preparation for such a study is planned for 2024.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The Fund is already actively collaborating with Better Work in the garment / textile supply chain, both at global and country levels on topics ranging from COVID-19 to commuting safety. Joint activities have been (or are currently) implemented in Ethiopia, Egypt, Madagascar, Bangladesh, Cambodia, Indonesia, and Vietnam. The Fund has been decreasing its presence in the sector over the past few years precisely because it considers implementation of activities in partnership with existing Better Work country programmes to be an efficient and effective way to achieve impact. These efforts will be continued, further strengthened and formalised.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The Branch is undergoing a restructuring and the reporting lines may change. Specific to this recommendation, the Branch agrees to its essence i.e. greater integration of the VZF within the framework of the Flagship. The process has initiated for instance by greater integration in operational and backstopping aspects (KM, M&E, Resource Mobilization, etc.). The possibility of integrating the reporting lines will be explored once the restructuring is complete. On the second aspect of the recommendation, i.e. limiting the responsibilities of the key programme staff with sole responsibility for the Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme, it is to be noted that compliance with OSH standards depends on the capacities of labour inspectorates to enforce these standards. Therefore, OSH and labour inspection issues are strongly interconnected, and many projects encompass both technical aspects. Also, both OSH and labour inspection projects have the same donors with identical monitoring, reporting and evaluation requirements, which argues in favour of maintaining a single DC Team covering both areas.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The discussions have been initiated in Nepal and Sri Lanka. The engagement with the statistical department will be initiated in the next year. Prior to that the Labour Ministries also need to develop a system of collection of data and use of data. At the current state occupational disease data is hardly collected. The reporting on OSH incident data is also low. These issues along with engagement with statistical departments will be done in 2024.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation As a supply chain initiative, the Fund considers private sector engagement crucial in its mission to enhance safety and health. This involves collaborating with global buyers and multinational enterprises (MNEs) at global and country levels to eliminate severe accidents and diseases in supply chains. To this end, the Fund has developed a private sector engagement strategy that has been validated by its donors and by global social partners. These efforts will continue and be strengthened. The new ILO OSH strategy and the ILO strategy on decent work in supply chains will be used as reference for future engagements.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation A significant challenge in recording reporting and notifying occupational injuries lies in the unreliability of country statistics on non-fatal injuries. To bridge this information gap, the ILO advocates for widespread use of an OSH component in Labour Force Surveys (LFS). However, it's not common practice to include OSH-related questions in LFS. ILOSTAT, with inputs from LABADMIN/OSH, has developed a module that could serve as a blueprint for national questionnaires to be integrated into the national LFS and ultimately to the national recording and notification system. Flagship projects could support Member States in this endeavour by: 1) Adapting the OSH module to suit the national circumstances; 2) Building the capacity of MS to collect and evaluate this data; 3) Assisting MS in effectively integrating LFS-based OSH data into the national OSH system. DC projects could support P&B output 6.1 and align well with the new OSH strategy and plan of action, particularly Action Area 4.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The Branch will use the recommendation in reviewing the workplans of Technical Specialists for enhanced integration of technical support to DC projects and for streamlining interventions at country level, in areas where it is not yet the case. Measures of greater interaction among projects and Technical Specialists will be implemented in a more systematic manner (through joint missions, joint meetings and sharing of updates, comprehensive analysis of needs regarding the development of technical products, etc.) to enhance cohesiveness.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The regional priorities were discussed during the Branch’s retreat workshop in July 2023. Initial discussions have also taken place in the MENA region, where limited interventions have been implemented under the framework of Safety + Health for All and will be pursued. Focussed support is currently ongoing in Europe and Central Asia where various projects are being developed. While a full-fledged strategy per region may not be required, namely as the needs of countries within the same region can be quite different (as well as the need of support from the ILO) an assessment of gaps and priorities can be undertaken in line with the recommendation. Among others, DWCPs can be a useful basis to carry out these assessments. This however will not guarantee direct and comparable DC interventions in all regions since funding patterns differ significantly by region.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The recommendation is in line with VZF’s strategy of replication and scaling up of good practices. Good practices and lessons have been periodically collected for reference and use. Inter-project/inter-country exchanges on good practices will be further enhanced in future. Initially, the Fund concentrated on the garment and agri-food sectors as a strategic choice. In 2020, the Fund also started activities in the construction supply chain in its project countries. The Fund’s global strategy specifically includes criteria for sector selection, including an analysis of decent work deficits in the sector, in particular OSH deficits. Resources permitting, the Fund plans to expand into other high-risk sectors.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The Flagship programmes were launched by the GB without supplementary funds allocated to the managing Departments. For the design and implementation of Safety + Health for All, the LABADMIN/OSH Branch set up a small team comprising of a Senior Administrator funded on RB, a M&E Specialist and a Programme Officer. The two latter positions are partially funded by the ILO PSI. With OSH becoming a FPRW and the adoption of the revised ILO Global Strategy on OSH, it is expected that additional XBTC funds will be raised to maintain the current staff and possibly create a new position to help manage the growing project portfolio.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The constituents' capacities are being built, including of workers' organizations and the strengthening of the labour inspection system. A large population of workers is still outside the coverage of the existing legal system. For that sectoral level initiatives are planned.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation This is already done by most DC projects under the flagship programme. The Branch will further enhance efforts in line with the new OSH strategy as well as in consultation with other initiatives of FUNDAMENTALS and other relevant units/departments.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation Although the Fund's primary mandate is OSH, it recognizes that the root causes of OSH challenges often stem from deficits related to other fundamental rights like freedom of association and collective bargaining. As a result, the Fund will explore opportunities for collaboration with other ILO projects and programs (including with ACTRAV and ACTEMP) to promote all fundamental principles and rights at work in an integrated manner.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The request was made to the donor. The donor has extended the project to 31 December 2024.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The gender and disability inclusion is well reflected in the ILO Global Strategy on OSH. DC projects under the Flagship are increasingly elaborating gender strategies. Increasing demands on work on Convention No.190 also expands the scope of DC projects in dealing with the issues of gender equality. This trend will be further supported.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The revised ILO Global Strategy on OSH reiterates the role of the DC projects under the Flagship in delivering the OSH mandate. Using the findings of this evaluation, the role of the Flagship programme in providing a coherent, cohesive approach through DC will be further enhanced. With the recent adoption of the strategy mentioned above, the current Flagship programme strategy (2021-2025) will be reassessed and adjusted as required to ensure that the global programme is fully aligned with the comprehensive ILO action plan 2024-2030, including timelines, and delivers on specific targets under it, as a contribution to the overall ILO efforts. Specifically, the programme will use the combined targets of projects to measure its effectiveness.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation Inclusion of disability issues into OSH projects will be explored.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation The needs expressed by Member States to address OSH challenges are very high. It is expected that these requests will increase with the adoption of the revised ILO Global Strategy on OSH, requiring to increase the financial capacity of the Office to provide this support. Also, most projects under the Flagship, are below USD 3 million (as of end Nov. 2023, only 5 projects out of 40 have a budget above this threshold). Moreover, smaller projects, despite having a disbalance in terms of available resources for technical and operational backstopping, provide important resources in advancing the OSH agenda at national and local levels. Seed money can be used to try new approaches. Overall, but in particular when project budgets are small, collaborations are sought with other relevant projects to pool resources and maximize impact. Therefore, the programme will continue to accept contributions below USD 3 million. The programme will also explore the possibility of setting up a multi-award budget.
ILO’s Safety + Health for All Flagship Programme - Final thematic evaluation In 2022, the G7 mandated the Fund to increase its attention to climate change and OSH in supply chains. The Fund is already piloting interventions to create practical and actionable adaptation measures benefiting vulnerable workers in agriculture and construction sectors. Recognizing that solutions must be tailored to specific labour markets and circumstances, the Fund is conducting pilot activities in diverse settings across continents and various supply chains. These efforts be further strengthened and expanded.

Way forward after the revolution: Decent work for women in Egypt and Tunisia - Phase II - Final evaluation This is already planned in Phase III.
Way forward after the revolution: Decent work for women in Egypt and Tunisia - Phase II - Final evaluation The project is indeed over-conscious about the matter of access to finance, especially for informal companies. That is why a whole outcome is dedicated to that in the draft PRODOC of Phase III. But, this shall be further fine-tuned based on concertation with partners during the inception of Phase III.
Way forward after the revolution: Decent work for women in Egypt and Tunisia - Phase II - Final evaluation The project has been on track by making sure that Women with Disability are included in all activities, in coordination with the NCW, which includes a whole division on the matter.

Inclusive labour markets for job creation in Georgia - Final evaluation Could be explored the potential to cooperate more and closely with UNDP and UN Women (potentially with IOM), as these UN agencies seems to benefit from a higher interest from funding partners, and some of the projects they implement include areas under ILO mandate.
Inclusive labour markets for job creation in Georgia - Final evaluation Main follow-up actions proposed by the project have been presented during the Project Advisory Committee meeting on 27 June 2023, with the attendance of ILO’s constituents in Georgia and representatives of DWT/CO Moscow and DWT/CO Budapest. Some of the proposals considered also the current recommendations, and all of them are subject to DWT/CO Budapest’s strategies and priorities for Georgia: ‣ Ratification of the Convention 81 and Protocol of 2014 to the Convention 29 ‣ Concrete steps in the Minimum Wage reform ‣ Immediate steps for improvement collective dispute resolution mediation system ‣ Approval of the Action Plan 2023-2025 of the Tripartite Social Partnership Commission (TSPC) ‣ Formal creation of the Territorial TSPC in Imereti Region ‣ Direct exchange with Danish experience for the Georgian Trade Unions Confederation (GTUC) ‣ Finalisation of the research on introducing unemployment insurance ‣ Short term actions following the Start and Improve Your Business Strategy for Georgia (SIYB Master Trainer Certification Cycle) ‣ Contribution to the Action Plan for the Human Rights Strategy in Georgia ‣ Immediate actions following the GEA’s Strategic Plan (developed with DI support).
Inclusive labour markets for job creation in Georgia - Final evaluation Considering the transition to DWT-CO Budapest, and the European Union perspective offered to Georgia (also the application to EU candidate status), could be an opportunity to develop an ILO intervention covering Georgia, Moldova, and Ukraine, on approximation/transposition of EU labour legislation framework, and on adaptation of the labour practices and institutions to the EU standards, augmented with the international labour standards, and grounded on the ILO’s tripartite structure.
Inclusive labour markets for job creation in Georgia - Final evaluation Official (hand over) communication from DWT/CO Moscow to DWT/CO Budapest should strongly support this recommendation, considering constituent’s constant requests regarding permanent ILO presence in Georgia, and the situation faced in presence when ILO completely closed the only office premises on 1st of July 2023. Special situation of transfer of responsibilities could justify special allocation of funds for the creation of a national coordinator position.
Inclusive labour markets for job creation in Georgia - Final evaluation It’s an opportunity to use the current momentum produced by the project implementation and to further support the formal approval of the Action Plan 2023-2025 of the Tripartite Social Partnership Commission (TSPC) and the formal creation of the Territorial TSPC in Imereti Region.

Cluster evaluation Periodic questionnaires have been introduced as follow-up to training activities to be circulated among participants right after the end of the training, at a 6 months distance and at a year with the goal of better monitoring impact and capacity to drive change in the medium term. Nonetheless, as the months passed it became harder and harder to receive responses. We are currently engaging with ITC-ILO to try find incentives that would increase the response rate in the medium term.

Cluster evaluation PARTIALLY COMPLETED (EMPLAB): "A key aim of the Employment Policy Action Facility (Employment promotion) (ilo.org) is to collect evidence on local-level interventions to promote learning. ILO projects are also bringing this approach into their strategy – see, for example, the forthcoming DG-NEAR project on young NEETs, which will have an output on piloting integrated approaches to youth at the local level. Another approach is on youth engagement – EMPLAB (through different initiatives, including YouthForesight - Knowledge with UNCIEF and the Prospects project on youth engagement) is to bring young people at a local level into processes and projects that address their concerns on youth employment challenges.

Cluster evaluation Action not yet taken (INWORK): "As the outcome based funding resources were directed to strategic priorities which were other than those linked to P&B Outcome 1 and 7 no action has been taken in this respect by INWORK. Completed (PARDEV/PARTNERSHIPS): Due to the change from Outcome-based funding to lightly earmarked funding to four cross-cutting themes, consolidated in a Global Programme, the annual reporting template of the Sida-ILO Partnership Programme has changed, with a stronger focus on results, learning and future planning, as well as on how the different areas contribute to the higher programme objective. There is an ongoing dialogue with Sida on the content of the Annual Progress Reporting. The new edition of the Sida-ILO Partnership Programme features a dedicated component on innovative monitoring and evaluation for adaptive management and learning, with the aim of guiding the programmes under the Partnership in data collection and ongoing monitoring and reporting, to inform adaptive management. The monitoring activities are fully integrated into the four cross-cutting areas and include and evaluability assessment, real time evaluation and monitoring frameworks. "

As the focus of the Sida-ILO Partnership Programme and programme objective have quite significantly changed compared to the Outcome-based funding, not all initiatives can expected to be continued with the support of the current Sida-ILO Global Programme as they are no longer a programmatic fit or priority within the Global Programme. The end date of the Sida-ILO Partnership Programme was always set on 31 December 2021 with no guarantee for an identical continuation of the focus areas of the 2018-21 support. Alternative sources of financing (through voluntary funding or regular budget resources) could be explored for high-potential initiatives that are currently no programmatic match with the Sida-ILO Global Programme, and in line with the P&B priorities and partners' development agendas.

Cluster evaluation Given the limited duration of SIDA support, and the outbreak of COVID-19, it was not possible to undertake “experimental applications” of the full SAM-SDI prior to its finalisation and publication. However, key components of the tool were tested in 3 countries/institutions during the tool’s development. The participation of ILO constituents/members of NSDIs in the task team for the project also ensured its relevance and appropriateness in varied national conditions. The subsequent roll-out of the SAM-SDI in 2023 has proved this approach to be effective. Members of all institutions have engaged actively in the exercise, understood the methodology and been able to accomplish satisfactorily all the steps leading to production of an action plan.

Cluster evaluation As part of the component on “learning from evaluation” in the current Sida/ILO Partnership Programme, EVAL agreed with the donor the implementation of innovative evaluation approaches aimed at providing timely and high-quality evidence for improved effectiveness and organizational learning. Since early 2022 EVAL has worked on implementing a real-time evaluation to ensure evaluative efforts remain responsive to the needs for adaptive management, with iterative and on-going reviews, reflection and re-planning of actions to guide implementation. This approach includes multiple cycles of evaluative activities during the implementation of the programme, as an elongated evaluation exercise that will culminate in a final independent evaluation report.

From the mid-term evaluation, we've been able to produce and disseminate a series of 6 podcasts in creole to promote the objective, the results, and the impact of the project during 6 consecutive months, from March to September 2023. That series of podcasts have been broadcasted via two local medias in the Grand Anse Department and through several broadcasting groups on social media used by beneficiaries. Those broadcasts helped the project getting more visibility in the implementing communities. Also with the emergency fund, we've been able to produce two more podcasts that have been broadcasted during 6 months also to help the population of the implementing communities get a comprehensive understanding on why and how ILO, and its partners (including the Norway Foreign Affairs Ministry), through PROFIT project, contribute to the recovery after the earthquake occured in August 2021. The choice of local media and other local resources for the communication activities aimed to empower the communities and local resources to help get a betterownership of the interventions. Billboards have also been installed and community meetings have been held in implementing communities of the project to spread as much as possible key information about the PROFIT project , and credit all the stakeholders involved in its implementation, including the donor and the ILO. Besides, we've planned and achieved two media interviews at national level on Magik9 and Metropole in July 2023 to promote value chains of cocoa and breadfruit, as well as the impact of PROFIT project on strengthening the production of those value chains. Furthermore, we've been able to promote and communicate on the impact of the project through some national events with partners and stakeholders. We've taken advantages of two major event in 2023 to disseminate materials and stats on PROFIT project to promote the results and impact of the project during its implementation period. During the promotional event held on July 7, and organized by ILO as part of SDG Joint fund initiatives, and during "Artisanat en Fête" organised by the main Daily newspaper in Haiti (Le Nouvelliste) on December 2023, PROFIT project results have been promoted, and thousands of people had access to the stand of the ILO where materials and documents have been exhibited.

Contribution financière MAE pour la mise en œuvre de l'Alliance 8.7 ainsi que l’action du BIT dans la zone Sahel - évaluation finale The GCG's working group on "Sustaining the Alliance 8.7" Secretariat, formed in early 2023, has been advancing resource mobilisation efforts, particularly in view of ensuring additional support for key Secretariat functions, such as on supporting and further strengthening the Pathfinder Country monitoring and reporting process. At the 17th GCG in October 2023, short and long term recommendations put forward by the working group were adopted and the short-term recommendations have been implemented. Going forward the intention is to develop a project concept note / proposal (one of the longer-term recommendations) using a multi-donor pooled funding mechanism to mobilise further resources. An Secretariat organigram has been developped under this working group and submitted to the GCG (which includes Pathfinder Countries for each region), highlighting the key gaps in particular in terms of the communication and monitoring and evaluation functions. The Secretariat develops a calendar of events / high-level deliverables for the year, which could potentially be developped into an annual workplan. The Alliance's two Action Groups on Supply Chains (led by ILO) and on Migration (led by IOM) have their own specific workplans.

The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation Considering the normative nature of ILO Conventions and lengthy processes for ratification in both Egypt and Tunisia, their monitoring system does not usually follow quantitative and qualitative indications. It is rather focused on a YES/NO “indicator.” In both country, we are doing strong lobbying
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation - In Egypt, the roll-out of the Gender Equality at Work and Role of Trade Unions, delayed because of the COVID-19 context, is still in the pipeline. This roll-out will be implemented by the 13 Trade Unionists who graduated from the Training of Trainers Programme (ToT) delivered by the project on the same subject in 2019. The project has already been tracking women memberships in Trade Unions, through the already published Study on Women in Trade Unions in Egypt (2018) and the Study on Women in Trade Union Structures in Tunisia (2020). The project will make sure to keep updating these studies.
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation a. The project has already taken, in close collaboration with national partners in both countries, several actions in response to the COVID-19 crisis, as described in the following. b. Two surveys have been conducted in Egypt and Tunisia to collect data on the challenges women entrepreneurs have faced as a direct or indirect result of the crisis, and identify the support needed to help them overcome its negative impacts. c. i. The project has launched, with the support of the ILO WED department and based on the NCW request in Egypt, the digitalization process of the Get Ahead. ii. In the remaining part of the project’s life cycle, the project will continue to work on addressing the issues that resulted from the outbreak of Covid-19 on labour conditions and women access to the labour market, with particular focus on the informal economy.
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation Discussion with Finland on (no)-cost extension
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation a. The project has already considered its strategy under outcome 2 (Enabling Environment for Women Entrepreneurship Development). The revision of the outputs was based on discussions with, and requests from, national partners in the two countries where it was proposed to focus further on Get Ahead trainings at the expense of studies. The proposal was discussed with the donor and is pending their official approval. Once approved, the M&E plan could be updated reflecting the updated indicators. b. This is on track. The NCW has gained ownership of Get Ahead to a large extent as they have rolled out trainings independently of the project and the ILO overall in Siwa, Giza and Alexandria. c. The project, in collaboration with other ILO projects from across the region and ILO’s ENTERPRISES Department has been working on developing the online version of Get Ahead, the need for which was exacerbated by the COVID-19 crisis. The online tool will be an opportunity to address this recommendation by ensuring wider cooperation and accessibility. It will also be based on the updated curricula of Get Ahead, which includes elements on human and environmental sustainability.
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation a. In addition to its contribution to the Annual Results Report of ILO Cairo, the project will develop Results Factsheets detailing implementation progress with each partner and an overall one with the donor. These will be printed and disseminated in hard and electronic copies. The project will also design factsheets on all the work conducted with national partners in both countries in response to COVID-19. b. In preparation for the Regional North Africa Conference, the project will engage with the different partners to develop evidence-based papers on various themes related to gender equality in the workplace. c. The ILO, in the framework of the Joint Programme for Promoting productive and Decent Employment for Women in Egypt, Palestine and Jordan, under the technical guidance of the DWW project, is already collaborating with the FEI and UNICEF on looking into the business case for nurseries and the development of decent nursery models for private sector companies in Egypt. The project has already covered 60% of inspection directorates in Tunisia with training on gender-responsive labour inspection, including curriculum on violence and harassment at work. In the remaining 40%, the project will make sure to address elements related to social dialogue.
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation The project has recently started the collaboration with other ILO projects in Tunisia, mainly AFERE and ETOFE in the context of the digitalization of Get Ahead.
The Way Forward after the Revolution: Decent Work for Women in Egypt and Tunisia (DWW) - Phase II - Midterm evaluation It is already part of the project implementation plan to hand over the HR & Gender Academy manual to the FEI through the HR & Gender Academy Manual and a Training of Trainers (ToT) on how to deliver it. It is also now envisaged, given COVID-19 context, the digitalization of a part of the Academy curriculum.

Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation Future projects will aim to consider these recommendations.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation Ongoing work on FL has prioritised on a preventative approach and actions that resulted from the survey in Maranhão, including psychological and other support to rescued workers, have been taken up.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation In mid 2019, there was no possibility for creating such a group. Due to the restructuring of the social society participation structures, no interest for a tripartite commission with ILO existed. Part of the work in relation to mapping has been concluded through the assistance given to the Federal Government which has just recently established a national flow (Fluxo Nacional) that plots out all different stakeholders and how they together contribute to providing support to victims of FL.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation As there is no more work done by CO-BRASILIA in Peru, this was not followed up by us.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation Based on this recommendation the ILO reinforced its role in promoting the private sector engagement in the combat of forced labour policy.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation At the two programming workshops held in late 2019 and early 2020, the Office discussed this recommendation, especially with a view to defining better ILO's role given constituents' requests at the 2019 workshop. As a result of the workshop, the work on FPRWs has been reoriented to make better use of the ILO's interlocution with all its constituents.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation As no modifications to the current staffing of the ongoing FPRW project are possible, the CO has prioritised training in HQ and Turin for the staff members. The issue is of a general nature in many aspects of the CO's work. Closer approximation to experiences and colleagues in LIMA and HQ has been prioritised.
Consolidating and disseminating efforts to combat forced labour in Brazil and Peru - Final Evaluation The concept of South/South cooperation outlined is followed by the CO, which believes that the existing mechanism is solid enough to provide for the adequate consideration of national priorities, given its demand-driven nature and each Member State's explicit involvement in the design and activities, which has in some cases led to very long negotiations. As to work in the Amazon region, existing logistical limitations and a lack of funding that could allow for such work to be conducted there, do not allow for following this recommendation.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with this recommendation and will continue to support migrant resource centers (MRC) through which guidance is provided to potential migrant workers.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office broadly agrees with the recommendation to strengthen support from and collaboration among regional labour migration specialists. The Office has taken steps to strengthen the regional strategic workplan for labour migration, bringing all regional and subregional spcialists together. ILO notes, for ex., that Labour Migration specialists are already part of Decent work teams at sub-regional levels, which aim to be multidisciplinary. Furthermore, LM specialists are members of a Global Technical Team coordinated by MIGRANT and also coordinate at subregional and regional levels
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees and will take this into account for the next phase of FAIRWAY.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees broadly with the recommendation to strengthen the interregional dimensions of the project. However, the Office notes that in recent years, it has already supported the development of the African Union Guidelines on Bilateral Labour Agreements and IGAD Regional Guidelines on Rights Based Bilateral Labour Agreements, in addition to co-leading the development of the UN Global Guidance on Bilateral Labour Migration Agreements. These guidance documents, developed with tripartite participation and grounded in ILO and other UN instruments, provide clear advice to countries in Africa and beyond for the development, negotiation and implementation of BLAs, and will be drawn on as relevant when providing country specific advisory services.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with the recommendation for a longer-term programmatic approach. It notes that in the Africa region there is already a draft regional labour migration strategy. A similar strategy is presently being developed in the ILO Regional Office for Arab States. It is also important to note that constituents together with the Office determine ILO priorities via a formal Programme and Budget process, which constitute an overarching framework. At the same time, as the COVID-19 pandemic has shown, crisis or other circumstances can lead to changes in priorities for the Office, requiring flexibility. This was exemplified when FAIRWAY funds were reoriented, with donor collaboration, to support migrant workers affected by the COVID crisis in the return and reintegration process.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office generally agrees with this recommendation to improve the focus of the theory of change in line with a human security and women’s empowerment framework, and will revise the TOC accordingly with some modifications.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with this recommendation to incorporate a lessons learned component to its M&E work, to feed into reflection on the programme strategy and workplans for 2023. A study of lessons learnt is underway.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office disagree with the recommendation, as the “complexity of the financial management arrangements” and its underpinning justifications is most probably based on a misunderstanding of the ILO field structure in Africa. Moreover, the implementation of such recommendation by relocating the CTA to Tanzania, a country not covered by the FAIRWAY project, could undermine the implementation of the project, as this will leave Kenya one of the strategic countries covered by the FAIRWAY Africa project without solid and dedicated technical support. Furthermore, it should be recalled that the ILO Country Office for the United Republic of Tanzania, Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda and Uganda (CO-Dar es Salaam) is directly responsible for the financial management of the project activities under any of the above-mentioned countries regardless of where the CTA is located, including approving all contractual arrangements for local partners. This financial management arrangements applies to all inter-regional, regional and subregional projects, some of them similar to FAIRWAY project (e.g. PROSPECTS covering Uganda and Kenya, CASPA – USDOL funded project covering Kenya and Uganda).
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with the need to continue and reinforce the role of the MAG in the Arab States, with the first face-to-face meeting planned on 14-15 November 2022 in Beirut.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with this recommendation, and continues to work closely with trade unions and civil society organisations, and other public and private sector actors as relevant to build solidarity, notably through increased and diversified interactions between migrant workers and nationals.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with this recommendation, and will seek to increase such meetings to familiarize project partners with the theory or change. Engagements in Africa have increasingly moved to physical meetings, facilitating partnership building.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with the recommendation to continue to enhance capacity building, including through training of trainers A training program is under development for the officers who have been recruited in the MRCs that have been developed in countries of origin
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with the recommendation to strengthen communication efforts with ILO staff, constituents, other international organisations, and partners.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees with this recommendation and notes that the evaluation has identified examples in particular from the Arab States which can serve as lessons learned. The project will continue to identify pre-existing gender and power relations at all intervention levels and seek gender responsive/transformative results which empower women and address underlying inequalities. This will also be taken into account in the design of Phase II of the project.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office broadly agrees that there is a need to review FAIRWAY’s programme staff structure and this will be discussed during the upcoming FAIRWAY Global Coordination meeting in November 2022.
FAIRWAY Program - Midterm evaluation The Office agrees that there is a need to review FAIRWAY’s geographic focus and this will be discussed during the upcoming FAIRWAY Global Coordination meeting in November 2022.

Strengthening of rural trade union organization in post-conflict Colombia - Final evaluation Con el fin de poder hacer acompañamiento post proyecto dadas las restricciones de personal de la Oficina de proyectos de Colombia, se vincularon algunas de las organizaciones sindicales participantes del proyecto COL/17/01/NOR al proyecto "Fortalecimiento de las organizaciones sindicales rurales y espacios de diálogo social para la recuperación post covid-19". Esto se llevó a cabo en unos territorios específicos dadas las mismas restricciones presupuestales del RBSA. Este proyecto que se basó en los resultados del COL/17/01/NOR permitió reforzar las alianzas con la Agencia de Renovación del Territorio -ART- y Programa Mundial de Alimentos -PMA-, que acompaño a las organizaciones sindicales en los procesos de concertación de las propuestas de las organizaciones sindicales para incluir en los documentos de política pública de trabajo decente. No obstante, es necesario gestionar recursos para: i) hacer acompañamiento y seguimiento a las OS para poder asentar los resultados del proyecto; ii) reforzar las capacidades de las CS y las OSR en gestión basada en resultados y en el ciclo de gestión del proyecto. OIT participa activamente en los espacios de coordinación interagencial para la implementación del acuerdo de paz, en especial en el espacio de seguimiento para el resultado 1 del UNSDCF relacionado con la sostenibilidad del acuerdo de paz. En este sentido, se reporta continuamente bajo los mecanismo previstos por la OCR para evidenciar las acciones y darles sostenibilidad. Así mismo, se han mantenido la relación con la ART (agencia de gobierno encargada del tema PDET) en aras de buscar nuevas fuentes de financiación que permitan escalar los resultados obtenidos a la fecha.
Strengthening of rural trade union organization in post-conflict Colombia - Final evaluation A la fecha se cuenta con cuatro documentos de sistematización elaborados por las centrales sindicales y el equipo del proyecto con apoyo de un colaborador externo, sobre los procesos de sindicalización entre los trabajadores rurales no asalariados, la experiencia de formación entre trabajadores rurales no asalariados, y el fortalecimiento de las capacidades de incidencia política entre las organizaciones sindicales rurales. De la misma forma, se realizó un taller con acompañamiento de un experto para identificar las buenas prácticas y lecciones aprendidas del proyecto en relación con la negociación colectiva y la sindicalización, los resultados de dicho taller fueron socializados con los participantes en representación de las organizaciones sindicales, y el donante. Es necesario que se avance en la socialización de estos resultados con los miembros de los Comités ejecutivos de las centrales sindicales, los directivos de las organizaciones sindicales rurales y demás actores interesados, así como organizar una sesión de difusión a nivel interno de OIT, además, de usar los documentos para elaborar articulos o notas que sean de fácil difusión.

No obstante, se requiere apoyar la movilización de recursos para continuar con el fortalecimiento de las organizaciones sindicales y la promoción del trabajo decente en el sector rural. Esto último debe implicar de forma directa a las organizaciones y centrales sindicales.

Strengthening of rural trade union organization in post-conflict Colombia - Final evaluation Como parte del proceso de planeación para el bienio 2022-2025 se incluyeron acciones estratégicas para el fortalecimiento sindical rural. Asimismo, los productos de dicha planeación serán insumo para la planificación en conjunto con los mandantes. No obstante, como ya se mencionó se requiere movilizar recursos para implementar dichas acciones en los territorios, y formalizar el proceso de planeación estratégica con las organizaciones y centrales sindicales. En el marco del RBSA "Fortalecimiento de las organizaciones sindicales rurales y espacios de diálogo social para la recuperación post covid-19" se continúo trabajando con base en los resultados obtenidos en el marco del COL/17/01/NOR en el fortalecimiento de las capacidades de incidencia política de las organizaciones sindicales en las políticas públicas en el nivel local. Con este proyecto se logró: i) fortalecer las capacidades de más de 108 lideres sindicales para la participación en la implementación, monitoreo y seguimiento de las políticas públicas; ii) participación de más de 1.400 lideres sindicales en la construcción de propuestas para incluir en las políticas locales de trabajo decente; iii) aprobación en cinco (5) territorios de las políticas locales de trabajo decente que incluyeron las propuestas hechas por las organizaciones sindicales

National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation The recommendation rests upon the surprising conclusion that "women economic empowerment was not a focus in phase two." The project established mechanisms that led to women being equal decision makers in productive activities. The earlier phase taught gender equality, this current phase reinforced its expression in economic relationships. These are quantified and documented. Furthermore, the executive summary concluded that "project’s VCD models rarely benefited the poorer rural people.”. Baseline studies had in fact placed the VCD-participating households as falling below the food security threshold, contrary to the report’s sweeping statement. The report preparers did not capture the lengthy deliberations (among the project, labour ministry and the donor, SDC) on balancing the project’s reach between remote households and those having some road access. A proper rural employment strategy has to reach both types and understand their implications on costs and results.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation As ILO is a non-resident agency in Lao PDR, all projects in Laos suffered from the same limitations. However, since the evaluation, IRIS has been fully operationalised and an imprest system established in country.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation The project did allocate a significant budget and a position dedicated to MEL, but the hiring and implementation challenges in Lao could have been considered for revising future HR or MEL tasking strategies. The simple conclusion of the study is that, since there is no continuous MEL officer (given the scarcity of MEL experts in Lao), all the efforts done by the project staff supported by previous MEL staff/consultants were inadequate. This is not a fair or well-studied observation. When the project's comments suggested that the MEL processes that were carried out amid the challenges should also be analyzed, the reply was: "The proposed analysis is beyond the scope of the evaluation. No change." The evaluation report also recklessly stated that the "data was plagued with double counting". Care was done to remove double counting, or where this was unavoidable, it was also duly reported and emphasized. Calculations and formulas could have been furnished if the evaluator had sought clarification. That the evaluator would jump to conclusions, without cross-checking facts and observations, is unfortunate.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation Although Development Partners are not "stakeholders", they were invited judiciously to participate at the provincial levels in appropriate fora where they have a presence. To involve them in budgeting and workplanning, as the report states, risks diluting and burdening the decision-making and accountability mechanisms. When these points were raised in the matrix of comments to balance the evaluator's views, the reply was: "The statement is correct. No change." No attempt was made by the report preparers to engage in reflections and critical thinking of pros and cons of their recommendations.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation A new project document will include a plan to analyze return on investment based on business case models in line with the ILO's approach to the promotion of sustainable enterprises. "Business case" assumes commercial benefit and both the project and NRES frameworks contain elements of public policy that address social good and medium-term pay-offs, not just short-term commercial achievements.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation The new project document envisaged for NRES implementation includes a significant budget for monitoring, evaluation and learning. The process will be embedded in the National Rural Employment Strategy implementation, with proper management, finance and data support.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation To be addressed in the new project. The NRES committee held dedicated sessions over one year to learn from the project and other country experiences. The national advisory committee had a full session with the donor to discuss mid-term evaluation results and lessons learned. The final project committee meetings enabled government officials to openly discuss policy barriers for future reforms. ILO programming and DWCP put rural employment in the forefront. A new government committee on livelihood and rural employment was created. Various documents, including the National Rural Employment Strategy itself, detailed models of intervention and multiple lessons learned.
National Rural Employment Strategy in Lao PDR towards increasing opportunities for decent and productive employment in rural areas - Final evaluation The senior technical specialist who backstopped this project from the DWT (and technically under the ILO EIIP Unit) remarked that this statement was not clear and provided a full explanation of the climate resilient approaches of the irrigation project. The response from the report preparers was dismissive of the elaboration. They stated: "This recommendation carried over from MTE. No change." The mid-term evaluation (MTE) was by then 3 years old.
Independent evaluation of the first phase of the ILO global flagship programme on building social protection floors for all (2016 – 2020) Conduct wide consultations on the development of the strategy for the 2nd phase of the FP and develop a monitoring and evaluation plan. The theory of change of the 2nd phase of the FP has been widely consulted through: - internal meetings with SP specialists, regional and country directors - the GTAC during its meeting in July 2021 - the GTT on SP during a retreat organised over two days end of August/ beginning September 2021. The theory of change and the related results framework have been updated based on the feedback received. The development of an M&E plan to provide clear guidance on the monitoring of results achieved as well as the changes to the results monitoring tool that are needed for this are under development.
Independent evaluation of the first phase of the ILO global flagship programme on building social protection floors for all (2016 – 2020) (1) A first structured funding dialogue has been organised during the development partners meeting in October 2021 in collaboration with PARDEV. Additional resource mobilization efforts have been done reaching out to specific donors (Canada, China, Germany, Belgium, ...), the development of thematic initiatives is under way for 16 thematic areas, new partnerships are explored and existing ones strengthened (UN collaboration, collaboration with IFIs, working with bilateral aid agencies such as Enabel). (2) Needs for technical support and TSF positions have been identified for each region. The RO for Africa launched its strategy for extending social protection and organised a funding dialogue to mobilize resources for social protection. (3) The development of workers and employers networks on SP in 3 - 4 pilot countries is part of the 2nd phase of the FP and will feed into the discussions of those networks at global level. (4) A JPO position on climate change and social protection has been mobilized. A JPO on Disability-inclusive social protection, Health protection and Long-term care has also been mobilized. Additional JPO positions have been proposed to donors (e.g., China). (5) A pooled funding arrangement has been created under the FP. Under this arrangement funding has been specifically allocated to the coordination, the M&E, communication and visibility of the FP. It is expected that additional contributions under this modality will further contribute to the financing of the management of the FP.
Independent evaluation of the first phase of the ILO global flagship programme on building social protection floors for all (2016 – 2020) (1) The development of a capacity building programme with the support of the Business Innovation Unit has started. A skills mapping in collaboration with HRD and BIU is under consideration. For 2022, knowledge sharing sessions on the thematic areas of the FP are foreseen. In addition, the management team meetings serve to ensure joint work and build capacities around programme management including resource mobilization and how to manage the growth of the GTT. These sessions are open to the whole GTT if relevant. The meetings will be complemented by the use of dedicated Teams channels where all GTT members will be able to access and share information. An onboarding package for new staff has been developed. Regular knowledge sharing sessions (KISS Cafés) will be continued based on the 2021 successful pilot experience. (2) The technical support facility has been put in place during phase 1 of the FP. Its operations will be further streamlined and clear guidance developed. (3) Efforts will be deployed to ensure that the courses offered by the ITC Turin, including the Social Security Academy, are communicated to all SP GTT and that ILO staff development resources are allocated for authorized staff wishing to attend the courses.
Independent evaluation of the first phase of the ILO global flagship programme on building social protection floors for all (2016 – 2020) The Office takes note of this recommendation and considers that progress in this regard is already under way. The role of the Flagship Programmes is highlighted in the strategy of several outcomes of the Programme and Budget for 2022-23 (i.e. outcome 7: IPEC +, Better Work, Safety and Health for All; outcome 8: Building Social Protection Floors for All). Likewise, the Programme Implementation Report 2020-21 includes information on results achieved through the Flagship Programmes during the biennium. However, the Office acknowledges that further improvements are needed to better align these programmes with the Programme and Budget priorities and optimize their potential to the achievement of results. The implementation of the ILO’s Development Cooperation Strategy for 2020-25 will provide an opportunity to enhance the integration of development cooperation, including Flagship Programmes. into the ILO programme of work by mobilizing resources based on clearly defined ILO funding needs per policy outcome. Structured funding dialogues will be organized for that purpose. Furthermore, the Office will continue to review the role of the Flagship Programmes, based on lessons learned from their implementation, in the context of preparing future Programme and Budget documents.
Independent evaluation of the first phase of the ILO global flagship programme on building social protection floors for all (2016 – 2020) (1) The strategy of the 2nd phase of the FP has been consulted with constituents and the ILO SP GTT. This has enabled a clarification of the thematic and geographical scope of the programme through identifying 50 priority countries and 16 thematic areas. (2) The ownership of the FP across the GTT is strengthened through the extension of the FP management team which now includes regional specialists. Regular meetings are organised on different management topics. They are complemented by capacity building sessions articulated around the thematic areas and open to the whole GTT. (3) Evidence-based communication has been identified as one of the workstreams for the FP management. The RMT, country pages, and thematic pages will provide the basis for developing evidence on results and impact, and the application of relevant social security standards, while emphasizing key policy messages and sharing information. (4) The Follow-up to the Resolution concerning the recurrent discussion on the strategic objective of social protection (social security) GB.343/INS/3/1 endorsed by the GB in November 2021 identifies the central role of the Flagship Programme in the implementation of the Plan of Action 2021-2026 to give effect to the Resolution and Conclusions. (5) The ratification campaign of C102 is part of the Programme’s strategy for the 2nd phase and will be implemented as part of the thematic streams of work on “rights based social protection” and “culture of social protection” which are already supported by several projects. (6) During the FP Development Partners meeting in October 2021, a structured funding dialogue on priority streams of work (achieving USP, financing social protection, and resilient social protection) allowed mutual exchanges between the ILO and partners on the strategy, results and impact of the FP in several countries. GTAC and DP meetings will be organized regularly during the 2nd phase of the Programme. (7) The development of a six-monthly 2 page update as well as a results dash board will be considered.

EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation Build on the relationships with government partners, employers’ organisations, service providers, and CSOs established under the SAF Programme to continue supporting collaborative work across VAW and labour migration actors to strengthen policies and frameworks as well as VAW referral systems that protect the rights of and serve WMWs. Support the implementation of SOPs developed under the SAF Programme that protect the rights of WMWs and increase their access to VAW services. Scale-up and/or replicate capacity development support to first responders (family members, embassies, consulates, employers organisations) so that they are equipped and capable to help WMWs who are experiencing exploitation or violence (including apps like My Journey App in Cambodia). Continue to support programming initiatives that directly empower WMWs and that support WMW organising as well as strengthen support for women’s rights movement building. Continue to support governments and CSOs to collect and use disaggregated labour migration and EVAW data (including data disaggregated by gender, type of violence, and sub-group of vulnerable WMW).
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • Simplify the results reporting processes for implementing partners, including women’s networks and civil society, by requiring less complex and less regular activity reports. • Advocate among ILO and UN Women HQ as well as donors for more flexible financial and reporting requirements, including the possibility of providing cash advances to small-scale women’s civil society groups to facilitate the implementation of programming. • Design communications products that are tailored to the specific needs of different stakeholder groups • Develop tools and systems to more systematically collect monitoring data after awareness-raising sessions to understand what concepts WMWs and members of their community have learned and what additional challenges at the institutional level need to be overcome to ensure that women engage in safe labour migration practices
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • Provide financial literacy training and facilitate business generating opportunities to families and community members of WMWs to support the effective use of remittances in improving the sustainable development of migrant worker communities. Support livelihoods opportunities to WMWs which includes entrepreneurship training and opportunities as well as skills development. • Continue to scale-up and further support skills recognition among WMWs. • Support MRCs to use a whole-of-community sustainable development approach that supports migrant workers, their families and community members. • Implement community-based initiatives that challenge negative social attitudes about WMWs who have left their communities to work abroad and provide accessible psychosocial support to help WMWs to socially reintegrate into their communities upon return. • Seek to engage UNICEF to support WMWs to care for their children when they are left behind in countries of origin or brought with them to countries of destination
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • Share information and advocate with donors on the importance and potential benefits of including social norms work into EVAW and labour migration programming as part of advocacy efforts to strengthen donor investment in social norms work that promotes GEEW. • Use information-sharing sessions on safe labour migration practices in migrant worker communities as an entry point to bring women and men together to discuss gender equality concepts including ending VAWG-IPV . • Increase investment in changing attitudes towards the acceptance of violence and WMWs, promoting gender equality concepts and creating safe workplaces without violence and harassment among labour migration government officials, unions, employers organizations and potential perpetrators of violence.
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • Continue to use human rights frameworks and calls to support all women regardless of legal status as strategies to increase legal protections and service provision to undocumented WMWs. • Continue initiatives to support the rights of domestic workers, including their organising. • Draw on the Safe and Fair produced study A Beautiful but Very Heavy Jacket: The Experiences of Migrant Workers with Diverse SOGIE in ASEAN to design programming that targets the specific needs of LGBTIQ+ migrant workers. • Collaborate with the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and IOM who are working on the nexus between climate change, migration and violence against women to design targeted programming to support WMWs affected by environmental issues and climate change. • Include initiatives into future programming that support women with disabilities to engage in labour migration safely, mindful of additional risks of violence, and that support the unique needs and vulnerabilities of WMWs with disabilities (both physical and cognitive).
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • Engage donors as part of the programme design and inception phase, alongside stakeholders, to create a shared understanding of the needs for flexibility during implementation. Advocate with donors during the programme proposal and design phases to build in flexibility to make modifications during implementation based on stakeholder feedback and important changes to the operating context. This will help to ensure that programming continues to be aligned with the changing needs and priorities of rights holders such as WMWs. • Continue to use platforms such as RPAC, NPACs, and CSO Reference Group as opportunities to receive stakeholder feedback and implement suggested changes regarding implementation approaches within terms of the agreement.
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • UN agencies should jointly plan, report, and have ownership over all programming results regardless of which agency is leading certain programming elements. Further engage and empower Country Office Representatives across programming countries to take a leadership role in fostering national-level stakeholder engagement and buy-in among programme stakeholders. • Hire sufficient staff (ideally one representative from each UN agency) to support programming at the national level. • Strengthen the strategic engagement of RCs as programming partners to facilitate greater programming collaboration with other UN agencies working across the region and to generate strengthened cross-border collaboration. • Harness opportunities to expand each agency’s partnership base by effectively sharing partners and directly engaging with the other agency’s traditional partners. Collaborations through joint events enable opportunities to connect partners and networks. • Further invest in the capacity of staff working at the regional level to develop regional-level synergies and foster cross-border collaboration among governments, service providers, and CSOs. • Increase and scale-up opportunities for stakeholders from across countries to meet both virtually and in-person to strengthen their working relationships with the aim of generating increased cross-border collaboration and synergies. • Include outputs in programming frameworks that reflect collaboration with other UN agencies across the region in an attempt to increase collaboration and generate synergies across UN programming. Specifically, generate outputs that capture efforts to increase the gender responsiveness of other UN labour migration programming across the region. • Strengthen the collaboration between UN Women, ILO, and the UNODC by further engaging the UNODC in future EVAW and labour migration work and by providing funding to UNODC to execute programming activities
EU-MPTF Spotlight Initiative ILO-UNW JP "Safe and Fair: Realizing women migrant workers' right and opportunities in the ASEAN region" - Final evaluation • Advocating among governments and recruitment agencies for gender responsive labour migration governance and reduced costs and fees of recruitment and an employer paid model of recruitment • Provide financial literacy and planning trainings to WMWs to support reintegration back into communities after working in countries of destination. • Partner with other UN agencies such as the WHO, UNFPA, and UNDP to increase the quality and availability of legal and health services available to women, including WMWs. • Further engage employers’ organisations to improve the safety of work environments for WMWs, including through policies and systems that support survivors of violence and harassment and hold perpetrators accountable.

Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management team doesn't agree with this recommendation in relation to the LEED+ results framework, as it is a general statement that every project should adhere to. The Evaluability Assessment conducted prior to the Mid-Term Evaluation (MTE) also reviewed indicators, the results framework, and data availability, confirming that impact and outcome indicators demonstrate changes attributed to the project. However, the MTE report didn't make any observations about the indicators, even though assessing the monitoring and evaluation system, including indicators, is a key question in the MTE ToR. Furthermore, it's important to understand that the project had to incorporate assessment questions in addition to the SMART indicators into the results framework upon the donor's request (DFAT conducted a session for all its partners, requesting them to adopt these questions). The project M&E officer also noted that assessment questions are meaningful and demonstrate changes attributed by the project, although they are not traditionally used in the results measurement matrix. Consequently, the results framework includes assessment questions that are not SMART but help assess changes attributed by the project. Moreover, the PAVE project, which evolved from the LEED plus project, and other upcoming ILO projects, will pay close attention to these suggested aspects."
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management team partially agrees with point a and disagrees with points b and c. Despite not having a formal gender and disability inclusion strategy in writing, appropriately, gender and disability were integrated into its interventions and outputs. These aspects were prominently reflected across different levels of project outcomes. In addition indicators have been identified to assess disability and gender aspects at different level (Output, Outcome and Impact) and collected disaggregated data of gender and disability against all possible indicators and tried best to analysed data and information against them. In terms of beneficiary selection criteria, the project maintained transparent communication with all partners and sought consultation with relevant divisional secretariats and technical departments to finalize beneficiary selection Ex: Department of Agriculture for farming and the Department of Manpower and Employment for promoting opportunities for disabled individuals. In response to point b, the LEED plus project, utilizing a Market System Development approach, primarily focused on mobilizing targeted farmers within the value chain. This inclusive business strategy involved enhancing farming skills, modern agricultural practices, technology utilization, and allocating more resources to support vulnerable farmers, including women, men, and Persons with Disabilities (PwDs). The project deviated from conventional community mobilization approaches centered on self-help groups and savings. It's important to acknowledge that the project faced limitations in terms of resources, time, and other constraints, which affected the comprehensive addressing (gender and disability perspectives) of every issue. Nonetheless, the project consistently aimed to respond effectively to the real needs of the targeted groups within the context. Regrading point c of the recommendation, the project had a dedicated gender and disability focal point formerly providing trained staff for gender and disability inclusion activities. The project also engaged national and international gender consultants to provide timely expertise and advice to address the gaps. However, setback occurred when the gender officer left in mid 2022. Despite attempts to recruit a replacement, the project was unable to secure a suitable candidate due to a lack of high-quality applications. Consequently, the project leveraged the knowledge and skills of existing team members to continue the planned activities in collaboration with the project's gender and disability focal point.
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management partially agreed with the recommondation. The team found common ground with the recommendation solely in regard to the issue concerning the monitoring of Micro, Small, and Medium Enterprises (MSMEs) and refer to the response provided under recommendation 4 for details. To calculate indicator targets such as productivity and additional income, it was imperative to gather yield, income, sales, and cost data from individual farmers involved in various value chains supported by private companies. However, the collection of individual-level data posed significant challenges due to limited financial and human resources. Consequently, the project attempted to obtain data through collaboration with private companies by leveraging their field staff and lead farmers with continous efforts of the project team in assuring data quality. Regrettably, only certain companies, such as CBL and Sunfrost, which primarily focus on farming as an agricultural business, expressed interest in collecting such quantitative data. Other companies were not inclined to engage in this data collection effort.

Regrettably, only certain companies, such as CBL and Sunfrost, which primarily focus on farming as an agricultural business, expressed interest in collecting such quantitative data. Other companies were not inclined to engage in this data collection effort. To address this data collection shortfall, the project, led by the Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E) Officer working closely with field colleagues, resorted to conducting Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) to acquire both quantitative and qualitative data. However, this data collection approach was inconsistent and often hampered by mobility restrictions caused by events like the Easter bomb attack and the ongoing pandemic, compounded by the heavy workloads assigned to each staff member. Nonetheless, the project endeavored to develop and widely disseminate human-centered stories under its communication efforts. These stories were made available to various groups, supplementing the production of case studies typically shared through annual progress reports.
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management team does not agree with this recommendation. During the project's design stage, an extensive in-depth value chain analysis was conducted by an international consultant. This analysis covered aspects such as the reasons for the inefficient functioning of products, inputs, producers, processes, logistics, as well as the end market. Furthermore, it also focused on areas such as services, rules, and regulations in identifying hindrances to developing the value chain, in addition to cross-cutting areas such as gender and disability inclusion. The project promoted the value chains of the selected sectors through private partnerships (Eight leading companies partnered with the project across six sectors). The companies that collaborated with the project also provided their full or partial input services/business development services to the end beneficiaries as envisaged in the partnership agreements. Additionally, the project facilitated companies linking with existing BDS providers to offer services to the farmers that the companies could not provide.
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management partially agreed with the recommendation. The project had to adhere to a complex reporting format that had been agreed with both donors (Norway and DFAT). The format is complex because it is tailored to meet the distinct requirements of two different donors. The team also reached a consensus regarding the report's length, given that the project encompasses a wide array of key aspects. However, ILO and donors engaged in several discussions about issues related to repetition which emerged from the fact that the report explains the effectiveness of the project (including outputs, outcomes, and impact) and provides a detailed analysis of the indicator section in two different sections of the report. From the team's perspective, there is a belief that a clear narrative is included under each quantitative indicator, briefly explaining cumulative and annual achievements. However, the same approach doesn't apply to the qualitative indicators due to the nature of them. Despite not being a specific donor requirement, it is a valuable suggestion to incorporate information about the project's contribution to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management team does not agree with the recommendation. The project did various cost of production calculations for selected products before making a decision to engage in determined value chain based on the value chain study. The cost calculation is carried out using primary data and referring secondary sources (Department of Agriculture has standard regionalized COP estimate based on the agroecological zone) as well. Due to the economic turmoil in the country costs of all inputs increased and making it unrealistic for the project to have a COP based approach in selecting particular VC; instead relying on a market based approach tof find solutions.
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project management team partially agreed with the recommondation. Since 2011, the ILO has been actively involved in collaborating with the corporate sector, primarily in the areas of policy and service enhancement, rather than direct engagement with primary and secondary cooperatives to enhance the living standards of their members. However, over the years, the ILO has not witnessed significant progress in its cooperative-related efforts. Providing additional subsidies to cooperatives is not a practical and sustainable solution, as it poses challenges to their long-term viability. It is crucial for cooperatives to become self-reliant and competitive enough to effectively compete with the private sector. Initially, the project initiated discussions with the Provincial Department of Cooperatives (PDoC) before exploring collaboration with the Cooperative Council in Kilinochchi. Unfortunately, these initial discussions did not continue for various reasons, with the pandemic being a significant contributing factor. The project's engagement with the Cooperative Council also encountered challenges, which were documented as a case study and included in the Annual Progress Report. Subsequently, the project reestablished a positive working relationship with the Chief Secretary and planned to hire a consultant to work with cooperatives at the provincial level, aiming to enhance coordination among various stakeholders. However, the project faced difficulties in finding qualified professionals with expertise in this domain, which hindered its progress and prevented its continuation.
Local Empowerment through Economic Development and Reconciliation Project (LEED+) - Final evaluation The project managment team agrees in principle with the recommendation which suggests to prove emperically that the market linkage model is as a replicable model. If successful the project promote this as a model which can be incorporated it into development strategies domestically and aboard. While the management team agrees with the recommendation it also needs to be considered that a continuation of the current efforts to upscale and replicate the approach would require additional resources which are not available at present. However, for future projects this could be integrated into the design.

Market systems development for Decent Work: the Lab – Phase II - Final evaluation In the event of a Lab 3, the project will take more consideration of using a ToC to design, manage and regularly adapt its strategy. If possible, the project will include regular reviews with the donor to revise logframe targets and project strategy that can take stock of new learnings.• Continue to try and understand the incentives, capacities and constraints of other departments and units in taking on a more systemic approach; • Have manageable expectations and logframe targets that do not detract from the overall strategy; • Influence institutionalisation through incentives; and • Design the long-term sustainability outlook around “who will do?”, “who will pay?” and “by when?”. The GCVCDE and the SME unit head with support from Enterprise Department management and PARDEV will continue to fundraise for a continuation for key functions the Lab has played and integrate the lessons above
Market systems development for Decent Work: the Lab – Phase II - Final evaluation The ILO SME Unit will use this recommendation to approach HRD and country offices to support its involvement in staff recruitment for MSD projects.

Market systems development for Decent Work: the Lab – Phase II - Final evaluation Following on from the evaluation, the Lab team, the Global Coordinator for Value Chains Development and Entrepreneurship (GCVCDE) and SME Unit Head have been highlighting the need for ILO investment into the systems approach to senior management in the ENTERPRISES department and in PARDEV. Off the back of the Lab’s efforts, there is building momentum for the approach and potential internal funding opportunities seem more likely than even 12 months ago. In that regard, the SME Unit Head and GCVCDE will continue to actively pursue these internal funding opportunities. As those opportunities may require some time to manifest, the project will continue to work with other units and departments to search for co-funding opportunities, which they have done relatively successfully to date. The SME unit head and GCVCDE will also push for a clear reflection of thematic focus on a systems approach to SME development in the new ENTERPRISES strategy currently being developed for the years 2021-25.
Market systems development for Decent Work: the Lab – Phase II - Final evaluation As the above recommendations were all actively carried out by the close of Lab 2, a future Lab 3 project would be in a strong position to continue to use the recommended tactics. It is also recognised that a Lab 3 project would need to continuously check assumptions and strategy to ensure that these “tactics” lead to effective implementation.
Market systems development for Decent Work: the Lab – Phase II - Final evaluation In the short-term the project has worked to input into the productivity ecosystem design to ensure that SECO’s next large investment into the ILO includes a coherent systems approach that considers the learnings from the Lab. With regard to further SECO investment into the Lab, SECO has indicated that systemic programming will feature in its next four-year dispatch and it has recognised that the Lab has been a strong project, however, it has not indicated that it will further finance any investment into the project. To this end, the SME Unit Head and GCVCE will continue follow up with SECO – alongside the coordination meetings for the productivity ecosystem project – to explore if any further opportunities may come up.

Decent work through skills and livelihoods training Outcome 3 will be revised for the proposal of a second project phase. In this revision, efforts to systematize and disseminate good practices will be included.
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training For future activities related to professional training, the project will focus on designing specific activities for segmented groups through intersectional lens. The project will also, when selecting implementing partner and strategic providers, strive to include evaluation criteria that reward competitors capable of including trans people particularly and also people from other groups in situation of vulnerability within its implementation team, including as teachers of trainings
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training The project is currently working on its exit strategy, which should include strenghthening the relations between CNI and beneficiares. Furthermore, instead of setting up a feedback mechanism between beneficiaries and potential employers, the project will strive to engage and strengthen existing mechanisms by other institutions that intend to connect LGBTQIA+ people to potential employers.
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training The project has gone through the process of reviewing its Theory of Change (ToC), in accordance to the recommendations of the mid-term evaluation. The project has also put effort to systematizing methodologies developed, even if this could not be pursued in reference to all of them. For future activities, the project will guarantee to develop and systematize all methodologies and programmes created. For future activities, the project will also include content related to the ILO international normative framework in project activities.
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training No further professional training activities are foreseen for the next phase of the project, but ILO Brazil will incorporate this lesson learned for future modules of capacity building programmes with LGBTQIA+ people. The capacity to implement these actions will depend on the ability to convey to donors the relevance of allocating time and funds to produce diagnosis prior to the training and to execute longer training courses.
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training ILO Brazil will promote meetings to discuss with strategic stakeholders the feasibility of the creation of a mechanism to monitor and evaluate the long-term impact of the Project after its conclusion.
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training The PRIDE project will include the definition of roles in the planning phase of new initiatives and for the expected second phase of the project, if it is approved by the donor. For future implementing partners agreements, and for working with strategic partner in general, the team will incorporate in its kick-off meetings a specific momment to address the expectation of roles, to introduce a flow of communication between partners and to present and align a resposibility matrix.
Decent work through skills and livelihoods training In reference to the recommendation of integrating environmental sustainability modules into professional training programmes and to strengthening the capacities of counterparts on the matter, the introduction of an environmental sustainability will be incorporated within the framework of future activities of similar nature since there is not an expectation to implement direct capacity building and professional training activities until de final stage of the project. For future seletions of providers and partners, the project will strive to add environmental sustainability standards as criteria.

SKILL-UP Global (Upgrading Skills for the changing world of work) - Final Evaluation The recommendation addresses the Evaluation Office of the ILO. The programme team will follow-up on this point with the focal point of the Evaluation Office.
SKILL-UP Global (Upgrading Skills for the changing world of work) - Final Evaluation SKILL-UP team met almost every month to share knowledge, good practices, challenges and lessons learned among the different countries (components). The programme team is systematizing this practice in the new programme giving more emphasis in the learning component, covering responsibilities, timelines, milestones, and resources needed. A strategy is being put in place to define and operationalise how learning is gathered and disseminated. The communication strategy of the programme will also contribute to this end. Also, an M&E system is being finalise. It will allow determine precisely the impact and number of beneficiaries and will be helpful for comparison of the same activities across components.
SKILL-UP Global (Upgrading Skills for the changing world of work) - Final Evaluation In order to strengthen constituent engagement, the current programme has run a series of dialogues and consultations with the constituents and direct programme stakeholders to listen to their needs and priorities before designing the new programme. The objectives of the new programme include an improved engagement process ensuring space is created for constituents who have low institutional capacity, and an extension to beneficiary groups if there is a risk that they are not sufficiently represented.
SKILL-UP Global (Upgrading Skills for the changing world of work) - Final Evaluation During the design phase of the current programme, the programme team conducted a mapping of the existing partner and actors in the field concerned. Consequently, a strengthened coordination with other development partners and actors is put in place. The main objective is to support aspects of the programme to enhance the effectiveness of its interventions.
SKILL-UP Global (Upgrading Skills for the changing world of work) - Final Evaluation The current programme is a continuation of the previous agreement and for its design, a thorough screening of activities needing additional resources to complete, consolidate, and sustain the results that were achieved was conducted.

Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation No next phase of the project exists or will be approved so this is not immediately relevant/possible. The ILO will consider for future new projects designing a coaching tools/guideline for end beneficiaries to complement training packages. The ILO will work with business development service providers to oversee the implementation of coaching by consultants and ensure that adequate time for coaching is allocated in upcoming similar projects including those under design stage.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO will enforce the criteria to be used by all partner organizations for identifying and selection of appropriate end/direct beneficiaries of SYB, IYB and FE programmes. The beneficiairies criteria include: level of literacy, attitude, level of commitment to allocate time and effort towards the training, etc. ROAS management and the regional Enterprise project will monitor the enforcement of this criteria within ongoing projects. The ILO will also make sure that partner organizations have interview checklists and are devoting time and effort to have interview with each potential end beneficiary before approving the screened beneficiaries.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation The project has been closely working with KRG and Federal Iraq MoLSA to oversee activity implementation. The ILO team in Iraq will continue to engage with government, social partners, implementing partners and other stakeholders to ensure that coordination mechanisms are in place and that they are guiding ILO action for more synergies and strengthened coherence.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation This is not realistics as the project has ended and no resources are available for instance to equip workshops. As a general idea the ILO can agree. For instance recently, the ILO has signed an MoU with Erbil Polytechnic University (EPU) to develop skills of technicians and workers. The ILO will consider expanding such agreements to establish incubation centres within VTCs. The ILO has also initiated discussions with Iraqi Federation of Industries (IFI) through the joint SP program to establish incubation canters to benefit graduates coming out of VTCs.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation In general, ILO SIYB, FE and KAB are generic and require localization/adaptation to different contexts around the world where the ILO operates. The ILO has tried its best to adapt SIYB and FE materials to the local context and translate them into local languages in Iraq though this GIZ-funded project as well as the Prospects project. However, according to the recommendation of the final evaluation of this project, it still seems that the materials require further enhancement in terms of contextualizing the materials through using examples from the local context which can boost understanding and using local names in the materials to make them more palatable for the trainees. The ILO, through its existing similar projects in Iraq and those that are under in the pipeline, will further analyse the need for improving the translation of the materials in Kurdish and will act accordingly to ensure the sustainability of these training packages.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation This project has been closely working with the Prosoects project in Iraq to make sure that beneficiaries are included in financial access ptogrammes to enable them to start and improve their businesses. There are ongoing efforts to collaborate and sign MoU with financial and non-financial institutions across KRG and federal Iraq (such as:1 trillion initiatives) to facilitate beneficiaries access to finance following completion of SIYB, FE and KAB programmes. The ILO will continue to promote and take a lead for better coordination between agencies that provide SIYB, FE and KAB training and those who provide financial services to enhance end beneficiaries achieve their objectives.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO will continue to advocate SIYB training courses are promoted and provided for young women and men who are in the need of the skills to start up and improve their businesses. The ILO will work more closely with MOLSA and KRI to insittutionalize the delievry of SIYB to ensure its sustainiblity. As such, the ILO will continue to lobby the KRG and federal government MoLSA to plan for and allocate the necessary budget from their own annual recurrent and capital budget as well as encourage VTCs to create strategic alliance with I/NGOs to mobilize funds and conduct regular SIYB, FE and KAB programmes.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation There have been efforts to facilitate cross learning among entrepreneurs who benefited from the trainings. The ILO will consider conducting an impact assessment of previous KAB and SIYB programmes. The assessment results will feed-in the global programme and their results could be integrated in the generic updated versions of SIYB, FE and KAB tools as case studies. Stories of end beneficiaries from the region could also be documented and disseminated.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO has been encouraging POs and Certified Trainers to use the online SIYB Gateway monitoring platform to ensure sustainability of the project activities. Renewing MoUs with implementing partners under this project while it is phasing out in not possible. However, the ILO will seize other avavilble opportunities to work with the partners who have been previously engaged in its programmes to build on the work completed and on available technical expertise. Work under new projects will include a micro-assessment/spot-check on the capacity of previous implementing partners that will serve renewing their MOUs with the ILO.
Improved Business Development Support Services and Entrepreneurship Education Targeting MSMEs and Youth for the Creation of Decent Work Opportunities in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO will continue to work closely with VTCs and/or Employment Service Centres to create a platform that facilitates internship or employment programmes within private companies for end beneficiaries (VTCs graduates) before joining SIYB programme.

We are not intending to change our practice of allocating our staff costs to one outcome because Better WOrk has more than 40 budgets in the system and it is not possible to change those budgets while they are still active. On the other hand, we have an agreement with BUD/CT that we are allocating all of our staff costs to one outcome.

Support to a new generation of Public Works Schemes in Greece - Final evaluation If a donor expects such close involvement and intensive communication would be best if these were specified in the project proposal and contract from the beginning. Expectations around communication and reporting to be more explicitly discussed and incorporated into project plans. At the same time, care must be taken that in most projects the ILO is responsible for implementation, and so there is also a risk if the donor gets too involved as it can lead to confusion about responsibilities. An e-mail will be sent to all DEVINVEST colleagues reminding them to do this.

Support efforts to combat child labor and improve working conditions in agriculture in Dominican Republic - Midterm evaluation La implementación del CMEP está en curso, incluyendo la medición de la Linea de Base de los indicadores que así lo requieren. El Análisis Pre-Situacional, que incluye la medición de uno de estos indicadores, está en proceso de traducción al inglés del informe para enviarlo al donante. El Estudio CAP está programado para realizarse en el primer semestre de 2021, incluyendo el enfoque de género, de manera que brinde soporte a la afinación de las estrategias del proyecto para que sean más equitativas e inclusivas. Se contempla la posiblidad de agregar un estudio de impacto de la campaña publicitaria "Lanza tu dardo sobre el trabajo infantil" que también brinde soporte a la afinación de las estrategias del proyecto.
Support efforts to combat child labor and improve working conditions in agriculture in Dominican Republic - Midterm evaluation Desde el inicio de la pandemia y hasta el momento, todas las actividades de formación y reuniones en el marco del proyecto (incluyendo las consultorías y procesos administrativos) se han estado realizando de manera virtual. a) En las actividades a implementar, sobre todo las de capacitación, se considera el ajuste de los temas a los requerimientos actuales de SST y el contexto COVID. Desde el proyecto se está trabajando en la posibilidad y factibilidad de llevar a cabo las capacitaciones de forma virtual, en respuesta a la situación de pandemia. b) Se estará instruyendo a la DGHSI la inclusión de los sectores textil y turismo, además del sector agrícola. c) dentro de las 11 provincias en el marco del proyecto, se encuentran las que han sido más afectadas por la COVID 19. d) se están redefiniendo con el MT los contenidos y alcances de los mapeos a la luz del contexto actual. e) se están haciendo las coordinaciones con la OIT para identificar si el Módulo 5 del SCORE se ha adecuado a la COVID 19.
Support efforts to combat child labor and improve working conditions in agriculture in Dominican Republic - Midterm evaluation Desde los inicios del proyecto se han realizado reuniones con representantes del Comité Intersindical para la identificación de acciones concretas para su fortalecimiento y 2 capacitaciones atendiendo a los temas identificados. Se cuenta con un levantamiento que detalla sus demandas de fortalecimiento y cómo visualizan su realización. En el año 2021 se continuará con la identificación conjunta y validación de las actividades pertinentes, considerando las recomendadas por la Evaluación.

TERCER PUNTO: a) Actualización del Workplan: Desde el mes de octubre 2020 el poryecto está teniendo semanalmente reuniones con todas las áreas involucradas en el proyecto y hasta el momento el MT no ha manifestado intención de cambio en relación a los productos y actividades establecidos. En el mes de Diciembre se ha actualizado el Plan de Trabajo y solicitado al USDOL la extensión del proyecto a Diciembre 2022, para obtener los logros del proyecto. CUARTO PUNTO: se continúa como estipula esta recomendación en cuanto a los roles de los mandantes y de la OIT. En cuanto al cambio de autoridades, tanto la oficina de la OIT como el proyecto han tenido sucesivas reuniones con las nuevas autoridades del MT con miras a proseguir con el fortalecimiento de las diferentes áreas y se ha validado con los diferentes viceministerios y sus equipos los productos y actividades del proyecto.
Support efforts to combat child labor and improve working conditions in agriculture in Dominican Republic - Midterm evaluation Para la OIT se acoge esta recomendación ya que es importante la generación de conocimientos que se puedan extraer de la implementación de los proyectos, por lo que al final del mismo se realizará una Sistematización que recoja buenas prácticas y las lecciones aprendidas sobre la implementación del proyecto FORMITRA por parte de sus implementadores, beneficiarios y actores relevantes. Esta sistematización se realizará dentro del último trimestre de implementación del proyecto, como parte de la implementación del CMEP.
Support efforts to combat child labor and improve working conditions in agriculture in Dominican Republic - Midterm evaluation Las recomendaciones de la Evaluación son de importancia para el proyecto y se considera su implementación de la manera siguiente: a) en el piloto de inserción laboral se ha establecido una cuota de mujeres jefas de hogar y personas jòvenes como beneficiarios de las capacitaciones. Desde el proyecto se estarán abordando estrategias en consideración a las necesidades particulares de esta población a fin de facilitar su inserción en el mercado laboral, a implementarse durante el diseño de las capacitaciones, programado para implementarse posteriormente a los estudios sobre necesidades del Mercado Laboral en las provincias seleccionadas. b) en relación a la campaña, se contemplará una adecuación para que se considere el rol clave de las mujeres adultas en la PETI, a implementarse durante la ejecución de la campaña en los medios de comunicación, programada para el primer semestre del año 2021. c) se tomará en consideración oportunamente durante el diseño de las estrategias para implementar el piloto de inserción laboral, específicamente, durante la fase de diseño de las capacitaciones en respuesta a las necesidades del mercado laboral (está relacionado con el acápite a) de esta recomendación), programada para realizarse dentro del segundo semestre de 2021. d) se propondrá dentro del marco de los planes de desarrollo de capacidades individuales de la OIT para el año 2021. SE SUGIERE AÑADIR UNA BREVE REDACCIÓN QUE INDIQUE QUE EL PROYECTO ESTÁ DE ACUERDO CON ESTA RECOMENDACIÓN Y QUE ESTÁ ADOPTANDO LAS SIGUIENTES MEDIDAS. ES IMPORTANTE PRECISAR PLAZOS CONCRETOS.
Support efforts to combat child labor and improve working conditions in agriculture in Dominican Republic - Midterm evaluation Desde el proyecto se coordina con el MT para crear alianzas estratégicas con entidades como PROSOLI, INFOTEP y otras, a fines de potenciar las acciones establecidas en el proyecto, así como también en el marco del CDN para llevar a cabo acciones de Prevención y Erradicación del Trabajo Infantil.

Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente Se está de acuerdo en que el conocimiento generado por el proyecto RBSA en materia de investigación no se difundió lo suficiente. Este aprendizaje ha sido considerado en los proyectos subsecuentes, como el de fomento a las trabajadoras de hogar financiado por Nacional Monte de Piedad. Este último proyecto tuvo gran impacto debido justamente a la cantidad y calidad de sus publicaciones, que arrojaron luz sobre la situación de las trabajadoras de hogar en México. En relación a la metodología de cadenas de valor, en la OIT, se trata de una metodología clave pero que no encuentra aplicación en todos los proyectos. En las propuestas enviadas al USDOS sobre trabajo decente en la Copa 2026 y al USDOL sobre sector automotriz se incluye un abordaje de las cadenas de valor asociadas y de los incumplimientos en materia de trabajo decente.
Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente La Oficina de OIT-México ha desarrollado propuestas de proyectos que integran de manera más clara el enfoque de equidad de género. Entre ellos: la Extensión de la Protección Social a las Mujeres en México, el fomento de la ratificación del C.189; también el desarrollo de actividades para que México adhiera a la coalición EPIC (Igualdad de Paga) y ratifique el C.190.
Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente Nuevamente se hace referencia a los proyectos volcados hacia la formalización de las trabajadoras de hogar (financiados respectivamente por Nacional Monte de Piedad y SDG Fund), que combinan actividades de investigación, formación, abogacía y diálogo social, asociados a actores importantes en la materia como son SPTS, STyFE, IMSS.
Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente Dirección reconoce que el fortalecimiento de los mandantes no puede ser descoordinado de un propósito de intervención en politicas públicas. En los proyectos que se formularonó posteriormente, quedó clara la necesidad de sincronizar formación de capacidades con las prioridades de los actores. Un ejemplo a citar son los dos proyectos que se refieren a la formalización de trabajadoras de hogar (proyecto financiado por Nacional Monte de Piedad en el 2018-19 y el proyecto presentado al SDG Fund sobre Extensiónd de la Protección Social a las Mujeres en México), donde los espacios de formación y diálogo social se han combinado de tal forma que se fortalezca el Sindicato de las Trabajadoras de Hogar en obtener la ratificación del C.189 y reformas a la ley federal de trabajo y de seguridad social.
Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente En el caso del proyecto del SDG Fund sobre Protección Social a Mujeres en México, de los proyectos enviados al USDOS (Copa 2026) y USDOL (Trabajo Decente en la Cadena de Valor del Sector automotriz) recientes se ha incluido claramente un componente de M&E que permite seguir las actividades.
Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente En el marco del RBSA de Formalización sí se buscaron aliados, sin embargo la acción de la OIT quedó subordinada al progreso que deberían tener otras instituciones (especialmente el Comité Nacional de Productividad) lo que, finalmente, no sucedió. Las alianzas y la complementaridad de las acciones entre OIT México y otras agencias/ gobierno/ actores privados estuvo prevista e incorporada en proyectos que posteriormente fueron diseñados. Un ejemplo de ello es la propuesta de proyecto para USDOS sobre Trabajo Decente en la Copa 2026, donde se identifica como aliados al sector privado (COPARMEX y CONCANACO) y los respectivos gobiernos estatales. En estas propuestas el diseño preve no supeditar la implementacion y avance del proyecto a los progresos del gobierno (por ejemplo, podría atrasarse la implementación de la reforma a la justicia laboral). En caso la OIT reciba estos fondos, la OIT no paralizará sus actividades a causa de esto sino que tiene previsto estrategias para enfrentar este riesgo y entregar resultados a los aliados del sector privado y de los gobiernos estatales.
Soporte técnico en formalización en México - Evaluación final independiente La OIT ha hecho un esfuerzo grande en América Latina mediante el proyecto FORLAC, que ha recopilado buenas prácticas y recomendaciones. Tales buenas prácticas se presentó en México durante el RBSA Formalización, en el contexto de la diseminación de la entonces nueva Recomendación N° 204. Sin embargo, finalmente la STPS, en un contexto de casi fin de gobierno, no priorizó más el tema formalización y concomitantemente la Secretaría de Hacienda desarticuló el Consejo Nacional de Productividad (que era la arena clave para el RBSA, una vez que la baja productividad era vista como un motivo principal de la informalidad). Ya como lección, en el proyecto de fomento a los derechos de las trabajadoras de hogar financiado por Nacional Monte de Piedad (2018-19) se arrancó del diagnóstico de la situación de las trabajadoras de hogar en México, del perfil de los empleadores, de las buenas prácticas internacionales, para entonces hacer propuestas de reforma de las políticas públicas, encontrando un momento políticamente oportuno cuando del cambio de gobierno de 2018 para 2019, que llevó a que el tema fuera asumido por el nuevo gobierno.

Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation The second phase of the programme includes new areas of work, including skills and occupational safety and health. These would require new partnerships and collaborations including with new departments from within the Ministry of Human Resources and Social Development but also beyond. Additional relevant entities and institutions working in the areas of skills development and OSH will need to be closely involved.
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation In the second phase of its DC programme, the ILO has identified a clear set of indicators both at the outcome and output level to effectively monitor and evaluate project achievements and results.
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation The ILO in agreement with the Ministry will continue, through phase II of the DC programme, to provide technical and capacity building support for the establishment of relevant Social Dialogue institutions, including i) a social dialogue unit inside the Ministry and ii) a tripartite social dialogue council, the latter acting as a permanent space for national tripartite social dialogue in the Kingdom.
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation The ILO will discuss with the MHRSD the communication format/ strategy to be deployed to share knowledge and information and increase awareness on project's themes, objectives, outcomes and deliverables
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation The ILO in agreement with the Ministry has already included in the second phase of the Development Cooperation Programme a number of technical and capacity building activities aimed explicitly at supporting the implementation of the child labour policy. Other activities on social dialogue are also planned to support implementation of the recommendations of the social dialogue assessment report and those of the report on the "Creation of an administrative unit for social dialogue inside the MHRSD".
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation The recruitment of an employment adviser and a skills adviser is planned under the second phase of the programme which is about to start shortly. These advisers, with ILO fixed-term contracts, are to be positioned inside the Ministry for around 12 months each.
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation Workshops and capacity building activities are planned under all pillars of the second phase of the programme. This is key to promote sustainability of results and build the capacities of ILO's partners to continue to effectively operate beyond the lifetime of the project. While beneficiaries include primarily ILO's tripartite constituents, other stakeholders who have a role to play in the successful implementation of the various interventions planned will also be targeted.
Supporting Ministry of Labour and Social Development in analysis, policy and capacity development - Final evaluation As per the Social Dialogue pillar of the second phase of the DC programme, the ILO will support the Ministry with the ratification of relevant social dialogue conventions and in meeting their requirements. Workshops to raise awareness on international labour standards are also planned under the new phase of the programme.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation The SP&PFM project demonstrated the added value of engaging with civil society organisations, in particular to carry the voice of workers in the informal economy and persons with disabilities. The collaboration with the Global Coalition on Social Protection Floors will continue at global level and with its members at country level, when relevant. However, a more consistent engagement of civil society as complementary partners to workers and employers’ representatives should continue to be encouraged at the Office level and not only for specific social protection projects.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation The SP&PFM results framework was proposed by the EU as part of the already approved Action Document. The lessons learnt from its implementing were already shared with the coordination team of the Global Accelerator for Jobs and Social Protection for Just Transitions and the global coordinator of the MUL project on social protection. It is proposed to share the key lessons learnt from the project’s implementation with the SOCPRO Management Team first, and if relevant with the Social Protection Department so that they can be considered when designing future projects. In addition, this activity of dissemination of the lessons learnt from the project will be continuous, and the former project’s staff available on demand to provide guidance to other future development projects of the Department and the Social Protection Global Technical Team.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation Each country project document, including the results framework was agreed between the government, in consultation with workers and employers’ representatives, as well as the implementing partners and EU Delegations. It is usual practice for any ILO’s development cooperation project, that prior to project proposal development, constituents are consulted by the country teams to ensure that their needs are reflected in project design. Furthermore, each country project set up a national steering committee that guided the implementation and results’ achievement, and approved any adjustment to the work plan (included in the framework of the COVID-19 response).
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation The subsequent global thematic programme (2024-2027) on social protection has a narrower focus, supporting the Digital Convergence Initiative (DCI) which seeks to enhance interoperability among social protection systems and other information databases in a country. Furthermore, while having similar budget, the new programme will only focus on 10 countries – while maintaining flexibility to provide on-demand advice to others, but without setting up country presence
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation Strong government buy-in is built in the design of the new EU-funded global thematic programme (USP2030 – DCI) on social protection, which will help strengthen digital social protection in partner countries. The new programme will focus specifically on the interoperability between management information systems. Evidently, the government will have already committed its own resources to development the initial information systems – that will then need to be improved & connected to increase efficiency.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation All efforts will be made so that at the outset during future project drafting a more feasible evaluation system is foreseen given the ILO evaluation rules and regulations. Where possible it will be ensured that an evaluability assessment is carried out at the outset of the project to assess the M&E framework and provide guidance to ensure that the M&E plan is feasible and relevant. With respect to the SP&PFM project, the evaluation plan and the decision to separate responsibility for the mid-term, and final evaluation was negotiated and agreed between the IPs (including the ILO’s EVAL department) and the donor, during the project’s design phase, in accordance with ILO evaluation rules and guidelines. Qualitative elements were included in both evaluations through interviews with constituents and other beneficiaries of the project.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation The lessons learnt from implementing the SP&PFM Programme, in particular with regard to the gender dimension, were disseminated with the Social Protection Global Technical Team and the coordination team of the Global Accelerator a webinar and policy brief. Taking the example of the Global Accelerator, the gender specialists of the ILO’s Decent Work Team and UN Women colleagues have been involved in the development of the country roadmaps and joint proposals for UN SDG funding.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation Five webinars and two more technical sessions were organised through end of 2022 and 2023 to share the knowledge products and tools of the project, in addition to the dissemination of lessons learnt briefs and knowledge products through the monthly newsletters distributed to over 5,000 contacts (thematic webinars and briefs: gender, disability, shock-responsive, extension to informal economy, SP and PFM). All products are available on the SP&PFM project website. In addition, the ILO and EC-INTPA organized a meeting to disseminate the Transparency and Accountability of Social Protection Resources (TASPR) (“Paraguay PFM assessment tool”) among the EU Delegations on 7 November 2023. In addition, an email was sent to all EU Delegations on 22 November 2023. The use of the tool is being explored in Benin and Senegal. A webinar with the implementing partners, EU Delegations, and experts was organized to present the findings of the research on the use of big-data to improve shock-responsiveness of social protection systems on 24 August 2023. The tool on estimating fiscal space and financing options will be piloted in two countries and developed into an Inter-Agency Social Protection Assessment (ISPA) tool in 2024 which will enable its mainstreaming for use by UN agencies in their support to countries. Both the TASPR and financing tool will be used, when relevant, by the pathfinder countries of the Global Accelerator for Jobs and Social Protection for Just Transitions. Lessons learnt from supporting the extension of social protection to workers in the informal economy were documented in a policy brief and shared in a large webinar organised with the USP2030 in May 2023.
Improving Synergies between Social Protection and Public Finance Management - Final joint evaluation As DG INTPA embarks on a new global thematic programme (USP2030 – DCI), EU Delegations are very much invited to be involved early on. The programme has been already presented in the Annual Thematic Seminar on Health & Social Protection during the planning stages (October 2023). A month and a half after its official launch (1 March 2024), a dedicated thematic conversation with EU delegations was held to present the approach and invite those who already work on digitalisation to engage in implementation (15 May 2024). Interest in participation already indicated by Cabo Verde, Iraq & Senegal. Advocacy and outreach efforts will continue throughout implementation.
Inclusive Growth, Social Protection and Jobs (Implementation Phase II) - Final evaluation - In each country, in-depth consultations and discussions with constituents, core national stakeholders and Irish embassies will take place during the design phase to lay out the overall programme, as well as during the inception phase of the new Partnership Programme to confirm and harmonize the operational strategy, work plan and log frame. Following this inception phase, budget allocations between countries will be agreed upon and a budget revision will take place. - In order to unify the conceptual and operational framework of the next partnership agreement with IrishAid, the objectives of the new PRODOC are exclusively focused on universal social protection. From this point on, symmetry and harmony between the results’ frameworks of the components will be developed to clarify and facilitate the overall progression of the project by outcome. - A “coordination and learning hub” (based in Lusaka) will provide coordination and managerial support while the strategic relation with the donor will be maintained at the level of the management of the Flagship Programme.
Inclusive Growth, Social Protection and Jobs (Implementation Phase II) - Final evaluation - A “coordination and learning hub” will foster knowledge management, capacity building (TRANSFORM) and partnership development in relation to the main action areas of the Partnership Programme. - The “coordination and learning hub” will foster south-south learning and sharing of best practices on universal social protection among governments, civil society, and social partners in the different countries and in the Global South. A strategy will be developed during the inception phase. - The “coordination and learning hub” in collaboration with SOCPRO will document national experiences and mobilize tools and platforms to promote at global level knowledge generation and sharing in relation to the main action areas of the Partnership Programme - The “coordination and learning hub”, will be decentralized but will work closely with the Technical Support Facility of the Flagship Programme composed of specialized experts at HQ level and in the regions. Most probably it will be hosted by the Lusaka office, but potentially in any other Country Office in the regions covered by the Partnership Programme.
Inclusive Growth, Social Protection and Jobs (Implementation Phase II) - Final evaluation - The Result Monitoring Tool will be applied systematically. - A centralized project library, hosted in the Results Monitoring Tool and a workspace for the project on the www.social-protection.org platform, will contain all the formal documents and will be regularly updated by the project team with Partnership Programme documents, cases studies, videos, presentations, among others, to facilitate knowledge sharing. - Regular quarterly Partnership Programme monitoring meetings will be organized to follow the implementation of the Partnership Programme components.
Inclusive Growth, Social Protection and Jobs (Implementation Phase II) - Final evaluation - The “coordination and learning hub” will provide coordination and managerial support to the countries, and will notably organize regular Partnership Programme meetings, consolidate reports, support M&E processes, and oversee financial management. - The “coordination and learning hub” will mobilize technical support and promote policy coherence throughout. Specific needs for technical support will be defined during the inception phase. It will also provide at global level strategic opportunities for implementing countries to engage and interact, share best practices and knowledge in relation to the main outcomes of the Partnership Programme. It will mobilize adequate tools and platforms to foster Knowledge sharing and M&E including results monitoring.
Inclusive Growth, Social Protection and Jobs (Implementation Phase II) - Final evaluation - The use of a financial tracking system and better use of the ILO’s Integrated Resource Management System (IRIS) will be mainstreamed to better monitor expenditures and manage budgets. - A mechanism for the allocation of the grant between components will be developed by the coordination and learning hub and agreed between all parties
Inclusive Growth, Social Protection and Jobs (Implementation Phase II) - Final evaluation - The Partnership Programme outcomes are aligned with the ILO’s Global Flagship Programme Strategy for 2021-25 and the ILO’s Programme and Budget 2022-23 - As mentioned above, the results framework of the new PRODOC is exclusively focused on the progressive achievement of universal social protection, and the outcomes and outputs of each country component are built on a similar structure and logic, which on the one hand clarifies the overall progression of the project by outcome, but also facilitates the cross-cutting objectives of knowledge sharing and capacity building in a way that reinforces synergies through thematic convergence, which is the core objective of the coordination and learning hub. - During the inception phase, each country will establish outcome targets and high-level indicators - For those countries included as part of the Global Accelerator on Jobs and Social Protection for Just Transitions (Viet Nam and Malawi), additional targets and indicators may be added in line with the Theory of Change and M&E framework of the Accelerator.
Enhancing Occupational Safety and Health Standards in the Construction Sector in Cambodia - Final evaluatio To design the 3rd phase, the unit has organized the PAB(Project Advisory Board) to be alliance with the DWCP and priorities with the MOLVT, and the Ministry of Land management, APHEDA and tripartite partners.

Se acordó entre la OIT y la ABC: - Que la OIT enviará los ""save the dates"" a los socios de Brasil y de los países cooperantes. - Que la OIT hará seguimiento a las comunicaciones oficiales enviadas por la ABC a las instituciones brasilenãs cooperantes.(#9). La OIT y la ABC no están de acuerdo con esta recomendación. En muchos casos, se trabaja con áreas distintas en los ministerios y es importante que hayan representantes de las distintas áreas para una mejor planificación de las actividades. Por otro lado, estamos de acuerdo que deben ser pocas personas y con poder de decisión. (#10). Se acordó entre ABC y la OIT que: - Se hará un agradecimiento a cada participantes después de las misiones/capacitaciones. - Se solicitará que compartan sus informes de misión. - Reforzar los estímulos a las personas participantes para que hagán un plan diseminación/implementación de los conocimientos aprendidos.

Cooperación Sur-Sur para la Promoción del Trabajo Decente en los Países Productores de Algodón de África y América Latina - Evaluación Medio Término (#12). El equipo del Proyecto tiene dudas si una mayor coordinación tripartita llevaría a una mayor sostenibilidad. Principalmente, por el hecho que la cooperación Sur-Sur es más de gobierno a gobieno. Por otro lado, el Proyecto siempre tiene involucrado los actores tripartites en diversos momentos importantes por creer que el tripartismo y el diálogo social es fundamental. (#13). La sostenibilidad es uno de los puntos centrales de focalización del Proyecto. Sin embargo, no hay como garantizar por medio del proyecto que se institucionalice los resultados. Se seguirá haciendo todo lo posible en este sentido. (#14). Es pertinente, pero se tienen dudas sobre como implementar esta recomendación - es de dificil implementación.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... This was done for the Sida Partnership 2018-2019. Despite a narrower number of countries covered by the Partnership, Sida programme continues to support implementation and monitoring of NEP in Cambodia and Morocco and supports the operationalization of NEP implementation at regional/provincial level. The current project is securing the follow-up of the important results achieved under previous Partnership in these two countries and will permit to contribute to developement knowledge and impact on regional experiences.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... Design of the PRODOC and logframe covering all components (global and country-level activities) of the new Partnership under way. This Partnership contributes as well to inter-country mutual learning and exchange of experience. Exchange of experience is part of the Partnership. Country activities feed into the global product’s development; lessons learned inform and improve the broad range of ILO’s technical assistance services and tools on employment policies and youth employment and are shared worldwide. The GP and country level initiatives complement each other. Due to financial limitations, no specific budget has been put aside for international and regional workshops. However, sharing of experiences and information will be done through sharing of implementation progress notes, organization of EMPLAB meetings and VCs with field colleagues, etc.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... During previous Partnerships, Sida's support was always focused on ILO's work on Outcome 1 on "More and better jobs for inclusive growth and improved youth employment prospects". The partnership provides a key contribution to several indicators under Outcome 1, in particular indicators 1.1, 1.2 and 1.3. The actual Partnership strenghthens an integrated approach and mainstreams STED component. The funding constitutes a critical complementarity which helps us leverage resources and support. Sida and ILO maintain regular contact to exchange on ILO's work on Outcome 1 and implementation of the Partnership. Sida Annual review meeting is taking place once per year and implementation progress report in 2018 and Final report in 2019.

SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... Outcome-based funding modalities are light-earmarked. Sida does not suggest to set up a steering committee. Regular meetings, VCs and skype calls are organized with the donor to discuss implementation and challenges of the Partnership. For example, a Note on Sida/ILO Future Partnership on "More and better jobs for inclusive growth and improved youth employment prospects. Meeting the challenge of the 21st century through the Sida/ILO Partnership" was send to Sida last December 2017 to prepare the current ILO/Sida Partnership and discussions with them held on youth employment and employment policies.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... EMPLAB is concentrating field resources to a more limited number of countries (4 countries: Cambodia, Guatemala,Morocco, Uganda), in which ILO has opportunities to make substantial strides through integrated strategies. The Sida programme continues to support implementation and monitoring of NEP in Cambodia and Morocco and supports the operationalization of NEP implementation at regional/provincial level.The leveraging and catalytic effect of SIDA support to these countries is being further enhanced (eg. Uganda, with Dutch programme, Morocco with AFD, etc) while many more countries will benefit from the tools, knowledge and capacity development opportunities provided. Others will see the upscaling or consolidation of interventions initiated through SIDA funding and taken over by other donors.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... Social dialogue is the basis and an underpinning principle of the ILO/Sida Partnership. Therefore, capacity-building component of social partners continues to be a major component of the current Partnership.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... ILO support on the implementation of comprehensive national employment policies makes a critical contribution towards the achievements of several SDG goals, in particular SDG8, but also SDG4 on education and SDG10 on reducing inequalities. SIDA’s contribution to Outcome 1 for this biennium through its key work items and products supported under the partnership will have an enhanced resonance through the HLPF review of SDG 8 and the activities connected to the ILO Centenary and the FOW initiative. Activities implemented as part of Sida Partnership will help ILO's country Offices to play a prominent role in UNDAF process. ILO is already taking the lead in youth employment in UN country team, such as in Cambodia.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... Capacity-building has always been a key element of the ILO/Sida Partnership and remains central to the current work of the Partnership. Capacity-building of social partners on NEP implementation, monitoring, reporting and evaluation at both national and regional/provincial level continues to be a major component of the current Partnership.
SIDA’s support to ILO projects in the field of employment promotion with an emphasis on youth employment with particular focus on Phase II of the ILO-SIDA Partnership Agreement on Outcome 1... For time being, Partnership allocations have been guaranteed for 2 years until end of 2019. EMPLAB supports the recommendation of having larger project duration in order to take advantage of the sustainability of activities and securing the follow-up of the important results achieved under previous Partnership. It will permit as well to support staff situation and keep staff already trained and expert in ILO's support. This will need to be addressed by PARDEV in the negotiation of next Partnership.

Moving forward, we took this recommendation into consideration when designing the new EU project on labour governance and public works. We engaged in a robust planning process that takes into account the lessons learned from this evaluation. Our aim is to ensure that future projects maintain a balance between efficiency and depth of impact and will contribute to shaping a more realistic and impactful project framework.
Enhancing Labour Governance, Inspection and Working Conditions In Response to COVID-19 Phase I in Iraq - Final evaluation We acknowledge and agree with the recommendation to request more time for the inception phase when implementing a project in a new context. The evaluation rightly points out that part of the delays faced at the beginning of the project was due to the fact that it was the first ILO project implemented by the newly established ILO office in Iraq, operating in a new context for the organization. In response, the recommendation is already being taken into consideration in the design of the new projects curretnly discussed with the different donors. Lessons learned from the previous implementation are actively shaping the coming approach, and we are committed to ensuring that sufficient time is allocated to the inception phase for a more thorough understanding of the landscape. The ILO has conducted a thorough pre-project assessment in collaboration with local stakeholders to identify contextual challenges, and opportunities. This will inform the development of a tailored inception plan. The ILO has initiated early engagement with key stakeholders to establish strong partnerships and collaboration channels to ensure a collective and inclusive approach. The ILO has undertaken a comprehensive mapping of the social, economic landscape in the project area and conducted a risk analysis specific to the new context, identifying potential obstacles and devising risk mitigation strategies. The ILO has requested for an extended inception phase in project proposals for new contexts. The ILO has developed an adaptive management framework that allows for flexibility in project design and implementation.
Enhancing Labour Governance, Inspection and Working Conditions In Response to COVID-19 Phase I in Iraq - Final evaluation We recognize the importance of structured capacity building, and the ILO has been providing several capacity building trainings to implementing partners particularly related to data collection and reporting as part of data quality check in this project. However, the ILO is not mandated and cannot allocate specific funds from a project budget and conduct standalone capacity enhancement programme dedicated for implementing partners. The nature of contractual agreement with implementing partners will be based on the deliverables that the implementing partner signed for.
Enhancing Labour Governance, Inspection and Working Conditions In Response to COVID-19 Phase I in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO acknowledges the recommendation to maximize the use of graduates from the Training of Trainers (ToT) activities and the newly inaugurated training center to enhance the capacities of stakeholders in upcoming projects in Iraq. The ILO will: compile a comprehensive inventory of individuals who have successfully completed ToT activities under the current project; Categorize them based on their areas of expertise, such as inspection, OSH, career guidance, GetAhead, and cooperative development and conduct a needs assessment to identify the specific areas where capacity-building is required in upcoming projects; Align the assessment with the focus areas of the trained graduates and the capabilities of the new training center; Develop a roster of certified trainers, detailing their expertise and availability as this roster will serve as a valuable resource for project managers when planning capacity-building initiatives; Ensure that the utilization of trained graduates and the training center is considered in the design phase of upcoming projects; and Include specific activities, timelines, and budget allocations for capacity-building initiatives.
Enhancing Labour Governance, Inspection and Working Conditions In Response to COVID-19 Phase I in Iraq - Final evaluation We acknowledge and fully support the recommendation to work on developing the social protection status of agricultural workers by enhancing their knowledge about the new social security law and the importance of registration. In response, the recommendation is already being actively incorporated into the design of the second phase of our social protection programme. Recognizing the importance of social protection for agricultural workers, we are taking concrete steps to enhance their awareness, facilitate registration. The ILO will: Develop a comprehensive educational campaign targeting agricultural workers to enhance their understanding of the new social security law including printed materials, digital content, workshops, and community outreach programme; Design and implement training programs to inform agricultural workers about the benefits of social security registration and the implications of the new law; Collaborate with local partners, agricultural associations, and community leaders for effective dissemination; Engage with agricultural associations and cooperatives to integrate social security awareness into their existing programs; Engage with policymakers and relevant stakeholders to advocate for supportive policies that enhance social protection for agricultural workers; Provide specialized training for labour inspectors on the unique challenges and requirements of inspecting agricultural activities.
Enhancing Labour Governance, Inspection and Working Conditions In Response to COVID-19 Phase I in Iraq - Final evaluation The ILO acknowledges the recommendation to continue the high level of contribution made by the project to the ILO's cross-cutting policy drivers of gender equality, social dialogue, and labour standards in Iraq. We appreciate the recognition of the project's robust efforts in aligning with these fundamental policy drivers. In response the recommendations is being already taken into consideration of the new phase of the social protection programme and the new project on labour governance and public works. The ILO will continue integrating a gender-responsive approach across all ILO interventions and projects in Iraq. This includes ensuring gender mainstreaming in project design, implementation, and monitoring and evaluation processes. Also, the ILO will strengthen mechanisms for promoting social dialogue between employers, workers, and government representatives and facilitate tripartite consultations and negotiations to enhance collective bargaining, dispute resolution, and cooperation in addressing labour-related challenges. The ILO will provide technical assistance to enhance national capacities for effective enforcement and monitoring of labour standards, aligning with the ILO's fundamental principles and rights at work. The ILO will also conduct targeted capacity-building initiatives for key stakeholders, including government officials, employers, and workers, to enhance their understanding and implementation of gender equality principles, social dialogue mechanisms, and international labour standards.
Enhancing Labour Governance, Inspection and Working Conditions In Response to COVID-19 Phase I in Iraq - Final evaluation In response to this recommendation, we are committed to sustaining our support for Iraq in developing and modernizing its labour inspection and OSH systems. This commitment includes completing procedures for the online labour inspection system, supporting the implementation of policies developed under this project, and ensuring continued institutional and professional capacity building. As a result, we have taken this recommendation into consideration in the planning and design of the new EU project on labour governance and public works. The insights gained from the evaluation have guided us in developing strategies to address capacity gaps and ensure sustained support for the enhancement of decent working conditions in Iraq, aligning with ILS.
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation While we acknowledge the benefits that could come from a joint study visit, this is a low priority for a number of reasons. Study visits have major budget implications; they have been made available to employers and workers through numerous other projects and programs; it is not clear that improved productivity is an item that is of significant interest to the unions, and as such funding on their end is not certain. It could be useful to eventually organize informal bipartite meetings facilitated by the ILO, possibly outside Yangon (1.5 days) to openly discuss about current illegal actions, blockades and find bipartite solutions or approaches to the issue. This type of meeting could help also in building trust. No action is planned in this area at the moment. This could be considered only after some other recommendations, are addressed.
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ACTEMP agrees that the amount of research currently being produced by UMFCCI is not sufficient to meet the needs of its members or adequately prepare policy positions. However, this is driven in part due to the department’s insufficient staffing, and it is unlikely that UMFCCI can meaningfully enhance the volume of research until this underlying issue is addressed. This has been complicated by the recent departure of the research manager, in part due to poor management. However, our view is that UMFCCI’s “falling back” on the labor law policy proposal should not be interpreted negatively. They invested significant time to develop a detailed proposal, and are now using that for advocacy. The sequence of these events is appropriate, and given the limited staffing, it is not surprising that they must shift between focusing on research sometimes and advocacy at others. That the evaluator came during the advocacy phase does not necessarily mean that the research aspects are deficient. However, we are in general agreement about the level of research not being sufficient to meet member needs. The Project staff in close collaboration with UMFCCI and MGMA management will: -Build the capacity of the UMFCCI and MGMA staff and development of a clear institutional mechanism to structure the advocacy process. -Mapping like-minded research institute in the country to support UMFCCI research role -support UMFCCI and MGMA in Developing specific internal capacity to regularly produce position papers in key policies
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ACTEMP agrees with the need for UMFCCI and MGMA to have more insights on members issues, priorities and expected services. UMFCCI and MGMA should establish a regular system to gather members needs in a systematic way, assess the quality of service provision, assess the overall members’ satisfaction. Ideally both organizations should also adopt a CRM system in which member interactions of all types are kept in a consolidated database. However, UMFCCI and MGMA are very weak at information management, and there are numerous barriers to the implementation of a systematic member database. These include overburdened staff and poor collaboration between departments. The project, in close collaboration with UMFCCI and MGMA, will: - Design and run a members needs assessment (which should ideally be conducted every 2-3 years) -Introduce a systematic evaluation system of training and advisory services rendered to members -Design a members satisfaction survey to be conducted once per year -Suggest the adoption of a CRM system to register all types of interactions with members and produce automatic reports and presentation of how other EBMOs are using the CRM
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ACTEMP agrees with the need identified in this recommendation. Using a web-based tool would allow employers to communicate and engage with businesses in a more efficient way. It would help UMFCCI reach a broader range of businesses and therefore be more representative in its policy and advocacy work. Current levels of mobile phone penetration suggest that there may not be major barriers to the use of a well-designed engagement tool, though it is important that this mobile based, given the relative lack of computers. However, in our view this would be a labor intensive work that would not be possible with the current and small budget set aside for the website. However, moving funding from other areas is a possibility. In view of the current staffing shortages at UMFCCI, though, it is also unlikely that this type of activity could be undertaken without the addition of new staff. It is recognized, though, that UMFCCI does have the funds available for this. In conjunction with the above recommendation on increased staffing levels, initial consultations on this could be held with UMFCCI, including discussions on website and staffing plans.
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ACTEMP fully agrees with this assessment and views this as a matter of high priority. Our view is that this issue, until resolved, will continue to be a major barrier to achieving a number of other recommendations listed here. Specifically, ACTEMP believes that changing the leadership of the EO Department at UMFCCI is an essential first step that must be taken as soon as possible. ACTEMP has previously encouraged UMFCCI to expand its team on numerous occasions. UMFCCI currently has the resources available to expand its staff team, though effective management of the department is a major barrier to attracting qualified new staff. ACTEMP also recognizes the need for the department to bring in people with a private sector background. Ideally this would include bringing in a private sector person into the department’s leadership role, which is currently staffed by an ineffective ex-civil servant. While ACTEMP can advise UMFCCI on their staffing decisions, we have limited ability to influence their hiring decisions. There is no direct action that can be taken to implement this recommendation or force UMFCCI to do so. The project foresee; -discussions with the UMFCCI management and specifically with Industrial relations Committee. -Organization of a strategic planning exercise (possibly facilitated by an ILO contracted EBMO leader) to map current deficiencies of the EOD (against the results of members needs assessment), define an ideal organogram in the Employers Organizations dep., plan new recruitments, develop a sustainability plan for the EOD.
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ILO has continued to support UMFCCI and MGMA with additional RBSA funds through the end of the 2018-19 biennium. However, ILO and ACTEMP acknowledge that this is the fourth full year of support from RBSA funds and that indefinite support is not feasible or recommended.. As such, the focus in this biennium is in consolidating the progress and sustainability of the “Employers’ Organizations dep.” in UMFCCI and create a functional and sustainable labour department in MGMA capable of delivering a portfolio of basic services to company members in labour related areas. A full work plan for the 2018-19 biennium has been drafted by ACTEMP, approved by partners, and funded by the ILO.
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ACTEMP fully agrees with this recommendation,. As noted in the initial guidance given to UMFCCI, the global trend is one of Chambers and EOs merging over the last few decades, not of Chambers hiving off the EO functions into a separate organization. Along the same lines, nowadays employers’ organizations are extending their mandate beyond labour issues. Almost no pure employers’ associations exist any longer. Additionally in the Myanmar context there does not seem to be evidence to suggest that a proliferation of organizations would benefit the private sector. Instead, it could result in an EO that is less representative, less well resourced, and less able to effectively advocate for the business community. The main problems stand in the current Labour organization Law which hamper to register UMFCCI as an EO. Two solutions are envisageable: amending the current law (the process is on going – at parliament level) or keep the de facto UMFCCI recognition as private sector organizations dealing with social and labour matters. - Meetings with the newly created Industrial relations Committee in UMFCCI to illustrate the different ways of business representing business and the current legislation regarding registration of EO - Organization of a workshop in Yangon with key leaders of business organizations with “dual role” (EBMOs) targeting UMFCCI CEC members to illustrate structure, modus operandi and legal recognition of EBMOs - Take advantage of the ILO Direct Contact Mission to explore the possibility to amend the current law and allow the registration of UMFCCI as EO
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation ACTEMP agrees with this recommendation and the need to improve follow up on training. In our view, the follow up may need to vary based on the training program. Some trainings are more akin to ‘information sessions’ in which UMFCCI hosts a lecture on new rules and regulations (or similar). For these, need for follow up is limited. For regular trainings, though, follow ups could have significant benefit. In our view, the level of staffing required would vary based on the way in which this was implemented. The traditional way that UMFCCI has communicated with members is through phone calls to each individual business, a labor intensive method that would create excessive resource demands. A more efficient way to do this would be through email or website. Design and regular rolling out of impact evaluation (3 and 6 months after the training) – but only for training beyond 12 hours.
Outcome evaluation of MMR801, Strengthened capacity of employers organizations - Independent evaluation The overall theory of change for employers’ organizations in Myanmar to become representative and effective has been articulated in numerous iterations of the project document. However, ACTEMP agrees that other representations of the theory of change, for example ones in graphical form, could help to better communicate this to stakeholders, and help ACTEMP to better reflect on the interventions and targeted outcomes for the project. The recently signed Myanmar DWCP 2018-2021(priority 2) is in line with the theory of change of the project. Project coordinator to review the project document, prepare a log frame and revise and better articulate theory of change. Definition of clear indicators compared to baseline will help in illustrating the progress.

Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation Regarding the first part of the recommendations on decision-making on grants, this point has been already responded to above. Regarding the recommendation to supply more background information on impact evaluation to potential grantees in the form of an “Operations Manual”, this has been completed but in a different form. In fact one of the final products, as noted in the section of the project evaluation report on good practices, was the “Guide to Measuring Decent Jobs for Youth”, which contains much of the information as requested by the evaluator.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation As defined by its name, the Taqeem Advisory Council served a purely advisory role and was not set up to be a decision making body, nor a steering committee. Given the highly technical nature of the project and its focus on knowledge products, the main role of the Council was one of quality control, knowledge exchange and advocacy. The membership of the Council was made up of technical focal points and not managers/directors. It is noted that a steering committee to take major decisions with regards to the direction of the project is recommended, however this is a different function to the Advisory Council. We do however agree to work towards a steering committee with a “monitoring function”, as suggested by the evaluator, as well as greater regional representation and more diverse backgrounds.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation We have drawn on reliable local research capacity to the extent possible in developing and disseminating new knowledge. In fact, as a result of the Taqeem project, the ILO continues a close partnership with the Egypt-based Economic Research Forum, which gives continuity to outcome achieved under Taqeem.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation The grants procedure was fully in-line with ILO financial rules and specifically the ILO office procedure number 430 on “Grants”. However this recommendation will be submitted to ILO FINANCE for consideration. It should be noted that in the opinion of management of this project, the recommendations on grant selection do not seem to contradict any of ILO financial rules regarding grants.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation The Office is conscious that this was an ambitious project which covered two regions (Africa and the Arab States). In the future, we will consider the project scope carefully in order to avoid spreading too thin. The suggestion to include young researchers (evaluators) is noted and appreciated, and completely relevant given the projects’ focus on youth employment.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation These recommendations to build off relevant work are duly noted and are being applied across the EMPLAB DC portfolio.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation We will consider appropriate levels of decentralisation to ensure larger presence and relevance to the local context, without compromising the overall planning and supervision of cross-country operations.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation We will endeavour to forge stronger ties between research outcome and policy uptake. To be reflected in future project formulation.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation This recommendation is duly noted. However, management considers the methodological approaches of research products under this project to be fully in-line with the intended goals of the project (i.e. a focus on impact evaluations which includes different types of approaches to establish attribution). It should be noted that of the 12 impact evaluations conducted under the project, only two applied randomization techniques while the others used combinations of quasi and non-experimental designs. The methods were chosen based on the resources available and the appropriateness of the evaluation design vis-à-vis the evaluated intervention.
Strengthening gender monitoring and evaluation in rural employment in the Near East and North Africa - Final evaluation This recommendation is noted and appreciated. The WEAI was a powerful research tool that was appreciated by many Taqeem beneficiary organizations. • Starting blogs and discussions – agreed, this can be done through the online Taqeem platform • Conduct WEAI standalone trainings – agreed and should be done in partnership with IFPRI, IFAD, FAO • Encourage early adoption by offering monetary or in-kind incentive – disagree, this recommendation seems to be in contradiction to previous recommendations on grant mechanisms.

Partnership in Action to End Child Trafficking in Peru - Midterm evaluation Esta recomendación ya no aplica. El proyecto se encuentra actualmente en la etapa final de aprobación de una extensión con fondos adicionales hasta mayo 2023. Desde el año pasado, el proyecto está en negociaciones con el donante para nuevos fondos lo cual ha sido siempre muy factible y se le comunicó al equipo evaluador. Actualmente se están priorizando las acciones que se vienen implementando y las que se incluirán en la extensión. En ese sentido, las actividades mencionadas en la recomendación no deben tener problemas para su implementación. El proyecto actualizará su estrategia de salida en la nueva fecha.
Partnership in Action to End Child Trafficking in Peru - Midterm evaluation Se cumplirá con esta recomendación. El proyecto tiene planificado realizar una consultoría para trabajar en dos lineas. En la primera linea de trabajo se plantea el análisis y elaboración de la secuencia de supuestos que afectan las líneas causales: actividades, productos, resultados, componentes y propósitos a partir de lo ya analizado durante la Evaluación de Medio Término. Si bien es cierto estas líneas causales existen y son en las que se ha basado la intervención, se entiende que es importante explicitarlas y actualizarlas para poder tener un mejor análisis de los impactos del proyecto. La segunda linea de la consultoría estará dedicada a recolectar información para medir los indicadores de resultado como parte del sistema de monitoreo y evalución que el proyecto ya posee. Cómo se explicó al equipo evaluador, el proyecto mediría los indicadores de resultado con cada evaluación independiente, sin embargo l a recomendación es que se haga más frecuente por lo que se planea al final de 2021, 2022 y la evaluación final en mayo 2023.
Partnership in Action to End Child Trafficking in Peru - Midterm evaluation Si, se seguirá implementando. Como el proyecto le dejó saber al equipo evaluador por escrito, existe una voluntad de trabajar en conjunto por parte de los diferentes proyectos y los mencionados, bajo la Dirección de la Oficina Andina. Iniciar la recomendación con el verbo "aprovechar" invisibiliza los esfuerzos de coordinación efectuados por ambos proyectos. El proyecto evaluado recomendó utilizar la palabra "continuar aprovechando o intensificar". Para proveer un ejemplo concreto, en julio de 2019, el proyecto Bridge y Trata identificaron que una propuesta de ley en el Congreso afectaria negativamente el delito de trata y eliminaría el delito de trabajo forzoso. En ese sentido, el staff del proyecto de trata y un consultor del proyecto Bridge, elaboraron un documento de analisis de las implicaciones. Estos hallazgos fueron explicados por las coordinadoras de ambos proyectos en varias reuniones con la Comision de Justicia y Derechos Humanos del Congreso, uniendo esfuerzos para que el dictámen de dicha Comisión recomendara un texto differente y más alineado a los convenios internacionales, especialmente a los de la OIT. El resultado final fue grandioso puesto que se aprobo un texto en el sentido que fue recomendado por ambos proyectos. Esta pequeña iniciativa requirió multiples coordinaciones y reuniones. Asimismo, en ese espíritu colaborador, junto con el proyecto Bridge, se está anlizando el desarrollo de un estudio que aborde la esclavitud moderna (de acuerdo a la Alianza 8.7 incluye tanto trabajo forzoso como trata de personas) y el impacto del COVID en el Perú. En esa misma línea, se continuará evaluando la capacidad y factibilidad de trabajar en conjunto con otros proyectos en la medida de lo posible y con las limitaciones de fondos y naturaleza de actividades aprobadas por los socios financiadores.
Partnership in Action to End Child Trafficking in Peru - Midterm evaluation Se cumplirá parcialmente. Como se expresó en la respuesta a la recomendación previa, se planea una consultoría. La segunda linea de la consultoría estará dedicada a recolectar información para medir los indicadores de resultado como parte del sistema de monitoreo y evalución que el proyecto ya posee. Cómo se explicó al equipo evaluador, el proyecto mediría los indicadores de resultado con cada evaluación independiente, sin embargo l a recomendación es que se haga más frecuente por lo que se planea al final de 2021, 2022 y la evaluación final en mayo 2023. Esto ayudará a contar con información pese a que los resultados o impacto no siempre suceden en el corto plazo.

EU-ILO collaboration in the monitoring of labour aspects in the implementation of the EU’s rules of origin initiative for Jordan – Phase II - Final evaluation The Office does not agree that there has been a lack of ILO monitoring and allegations of wrongdoing were dealt with through the IAO in a separate process in line with ILO roles. The EUD was kept informed throughout and confirmed it was satisfied with the process followed. To note that the consultants that were employed by NET and later by GFJTU have legitimate concerns about the continuity of the need for their services but there can be no direct relationship between them and the ILO. This is built on earlier evaluations recommending the ILO to work through implementation partners for these kind of services. As in all its work, in future assessment of possible implementatio partners, the ILO will assess all partners that might be considered to be retained for the hosting and delivering the employment services including providing decent working conditions for their staff.
EU-ILO collaboration in the monitoring of labour aspects in the implementation of the EU’s rules of origin initiative for Jordan – Phase II - Final evaluation Based on the feedback from the evaluation and lessons learnt, the ILO has submitted a new project document to the donor, taking into account the evaluation findings. The inception phase in the new project will allow for a comprehensive Evaluability Assessment, which will aid in reviewing and evaluating the proposed intervention.

EU-ILO collaboration in the monitoring of labour aspects in the implementation of the EU’s rules of origin initiative for Jordan – Phase II - Final evaluation We've previously collaborated with the Jordan Chamber of Industry (JCI) on a report regarding industrial sectors in Jordan and their relation with EU exports (2016). BWJ also commissioned a report on 'Jordan Macro-Level Industry Mapping of 18 Development and Industrial Zones', with the purpose of providing insight into the active industries and sectors of focus within each of the eighteen industrial areas and development zones stipulated in the EU-Jordan Agreement on Simplifying the Rules of Origin (2016). It's important to note that our focus, in line with the ILO mandate, is on promoting the labour aspect rather than directly endorsing RoO factories for export. However, in response to the recommendation, our new project document includes an awareness-raising activity. This involves collaboration and technical expertise from EBRD and GIZ, aiming to promote, inform, raise awareness of the simplified RoO scheme in partnership with public and private entities. Our entire project is built upon extensive collaboration with the Ministry of Labor, further solidifying our commitment to fostering positive impacts on labor within the industrial landscape.
EU-ILO collaboration in the monitoring of labour aspects in the implementation of the EU’s rules of origin initiative for Jordan – Phase II - Final evaluation While there are two ILO interventions under this project, it's essential to recognize that ILO operates as one entity with the overarching goal of promoting labour standards. Consolidating these interventions into one project with two sub-interventions ensures a unified approach and clarity of purpose.
EU-ILO collaboration in the monitoring of labour aspects in the implementation of the EU’s rules of origin initiative for Jordan – Phase II - Final evaluation Within the new project to be supported by the EU, work is foreseen under the e-counselling system, linking it to relevant systems to integrate the system in the national e-counselling infrastructure which includes the public and private sectors and handover its ownership to a national actor with the relevant mandate and the needed resources to sustain the service indefinitely. The main indicator for this action plan is that the e-counselling system is refined, integrated into the larger counselling network in Jordan and ultimately is operational and adopted for use post-project, with the objective of creating meaningful reports and analysis to guide improvements

Programa para la promoción de un Piso de Protección social en la región andina - Evaluación final El tema de la seguridad social quedó posicionado como una prioridad para el nuevo gobierno, prueba de ello es que el actual presidente PPK ordenó la conformación de una comisión de protección social con personas conocedoras en el tema, quienes están comprometidas a entregar una propuesta de reforma a más tardar en julio de este año. No obstante lo anterior, este gobierno decidió asesorarse del Banco Mundial y del Banco Interamericano de Desarrollo y no de la OIT. Es importante señalar que esta Comisión no ha considerado que Perú tiene ratificado el Convenio núm. 102 de la OIT, a pesar de que la Comisión de Expertos ha señalado reiteradamente posibles no cumplimientos tanto en pensiones como en salud. Ante esta situación la Oficina Andina ha enfocado sus esfuerzos en dejar en claro tanto a los órganos de gobierno involucrados, a las instituciones de la seguridad social y a nuestros constituyentes, nuestra posición respecto a una posible reforma. Estamos participando en diversos foros, reuniones con la Comisión de Seguridad Social del Congreso de la República, reuniones con el Consejo de Trabajo del Ministerio del Trabajo y con la Comisión misma del MEF, asimismo hemos preparado y distribuido una nota que define claramente nuestra posición frente a este proceso. Tenemos planeado, con este mismo objetivo y en alianza con el Ministerio del Trabajo, un Seminario Internacional "Análisis de la Reforma de la Protección Social en el perú: retos y perspectivas a la luz de la experiencia comparada" para el 7 de junio de este mismo año.
Programa para la promoción de un Piso de Protección social en la región andina - Evaluación final Durante el 2016 hasta mayo del 2017, la OIT llevó a cabo un proceso de diseño de una propuesta técnica de Piso de Protección Social en Colombia con especial énfasis en la cobertura en la población rural de bajos ingresos, mismo que estuvo motivado por las cifras de baja cobertura de la población más vulnerable en el campo colombiano. Tras la terminación de la primera etapa de diseño inicial, se ha dado inicio a la consulta y recepción de comentarios de los constituyentes de la OIT en Colombia con el fin de coordinar esfuerzos hacia una propuesta integral que haya surtido un proceso de consulta tripartita. Adicionalmente, y como parte del documento de propuesta técnica del Piso de Protección Social, se está preparando una iniciativa de comunicaciones y articulación institucional centrada en las condiciones territoriales, especialmente a nivel departamental y local, lo que implicará el reconocimiento de realidades y capacidades diferenciadas no solo bajo la óptica “urbano-rural” sino además “rural-rural”.

Further support will continue to be expended in strengthening unionization in this sector (outcome 3.2 of the DWCP) and through follow on Ship to Shore project and to be further consolidated in the work under the new RBSA project (June 2020) on strengthening sectoral social dialogue.
Combatting unacceptable forms of work in the Thai fishing and seafood industry (Better Fisheries Programme) - Final evaluation All follow up actions are contained in DWCP, specifically in relation to priority 3 outcome 3.1 and 3.2 and in relation to the work in support of the constituents under 4.1.1 on partnerships and coordination. More specifically in the follow on next generation Ship to Shore Project (due to start June 2020) there will be a focus on campaigns including: giving visibility to the Action and its impacts over its 48 months lifespan at national, European and international levels; ensuring consistent communication to all stakeholders, and to promote ownership and investment in the Action; sharing lessons learnt and promising practices on labour migration governance, particularly for migrant fishers, and fair recruitment models in the fishing and seafood processing industry that are identified and tested in partnership with stakeholders; promoting national, regional and international dialogue on labour migration governance, particularly for sea-based workers, in order to facilitate access to safe, orderly and regular migration channels and decent work opportunities; ensuring wide-ranging access to, and use of action knowledge products, documents and other relevant information.
Combatting unacceptable forms of work in the Thai fishing and seafood industry (Better Fisheries Programme) - Final evaluation This multi-dimensional set of recommendations is dependent on Government commitment and action. However, the ILO will continue to support the Government to implement these recommendations including in the context of the follow on project which includes strengthening compliance with OSH standards as a result of increased capacity of labour inspection to improve decent work conditions. Specifically, this will entail: Capacity building, standardised tools and instruments, for strategic compliance and labour inspections Technical support for multidisciplinary flag State inspections and port State control Exchange of lessons learnt and good practices on labour inspections in the targeted sectors Mapping and assessment of reporting, monitoring and inspection practices for the regulation of recruitment agencies
Combatting unacceptable forms of work in the Thai fishing and seafood industry (Better Fisheries Programme) - Final evaluation The DWCP and the new project explicitly target workers' empowerment and organization as fundamental to the project and supporting organizations to provide legal services. The new project is designed in light of these recommendations. Specifically the following actions are addressing this recommendation: Improved availability of accurate information, awareness and support on migration and labour rights to migrants, their families and communities throughout the migration process, from pre-departure to post-admission and reintegration and Increased opportunities for migrant workers in the fishing and seafood processing sectors to develop skills, to organize, to support and inform each other, to receive support from workers’ organizations and to engage with Governments and employers to claim their rights in all countries. Specifically, this set of recommendations is being addressed through: communication materials for pre-decision of migrants: assessment of the need for MRCs and support new MRCs in key locations, and provide capacity building to workers’ organizations and trade unions to provide services and empower migrant workers; development and support to implementation of pre-departure training curriculum for the targeted sectors; support to sustainable reintegration of migrants and; promotion of bilateral dialogues between worker’s organizations and trade unions in countries of origin and destination. In addition, the issues raised are being addressed through the provision of information and services, including legal assistance, through MRCs and building capacity of workers’ organizations; support to workers’ organization and expansion of unionization; and skills development and language training for workers
Desarrollo regional productivo, sostenible y con mejores condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo en la minería y manufactura de Bolivia - Evaluación Final Independiente En vista de favorecer procesos más minuciosos en la contratación y en cumplimiento de principios de TD para los colexts, se ha emprendido desde 2020-21, un proceso que consiste de: 1) un proceso competitivo para la selección de los colaboradores; 2) reunión preliminar para revisión de funciones delegadas, cronograma y plan de trabajo; 3) reuniones periódicas para seguimiento y monitoreo del avance del trabajo, incluyendo el estado de salud de los consultores (para evitar situaciones de estrés causa pandemia); 4) revisión de productos conforme al cronograma; 5) análisis de situaciones que prevén extensión de contrato por adenda, de forma anticipada; 6) en caso de no requerirse adenda, se finaliza la consultoría con una reunión de cierre y evaluación de las partes de la consultoría. Eso permite también recibir feedback de los consultores acerca de lo que como equipo OIT podemos mejorar. Adicionalmente, se ha generado también una matriz de seguimiento y desempeño de consultores, alineada al sistema de evaluación colexts de la OA. Se quiere también fomentar la retención de talentos y ampliar la base de datos con "power consultants", incluyendo aquellos perfiles más transversales a nivel temático entre proyectos. Asimismo, el equipo se asegurará que al momento de definir los TdR de los consultores, los productos no involucren funciones/tareas inherentes a la gestión interna del staff del proyecto.
Desarrollo regional productivo, sostenible y con mejores condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo en la minería y manufactura de Bolivia - Evaluación Final Independiente En el marco de las acciones planteadas para la Recomendación 1, se buscará mantener actualizados y sistematizados los documentos de proyecto para que, durante las evaluaciones o para un posterior uso de los mismos, brinden toda la información real del proyecto. Asimismo, el equipo técnico y la unidad de programación de la OA revisarán los TDR de evaluación para asegurar que la información concuerde con la actualización de las actividades del proyecto.
Desarrollo regional productivo, sostenible y con mejores condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo en la minería y manufactura de Bolivia - Evaluación Final Independiente Desde inicios de 2021, se han establecido reuniones semanales virtuales en conformidad con una práctica ya presente en la oficina en la presencialidad (previo a la pandemia). En las reuniones se han venido compartiendo avances y actividades semanales de los proyectos. Asimismo, en vista de las complejidades vividas por la Oficina, las reuniones han ayudado a: 1) fortalecer la comunicación interna; 2) proponer espacios para la socialización de buenas prácticas, lecciones aprendidas y problemas comunes a los proyectos (en este sentido también se realizan desde mediados de 2021 "thematic pitches" donde cada proyecto puede presentar una práctica innovadora; 3) hallar espacios de sinergia entre proyectos; 4) alinear mejor la oferta de servicios de asistencia técnica a las prioridades de los mandantes. Para fortalecer esta práctica y el proceso de aprendizaje continuo, se requiere hacer un esfuerzo para documentar las acciones conjuntas. En este sentido, se ha propuesto realizar las siguientes acciones: 1) diseñar un dashboard virtual / pizarra donde los equipos de proyecto puedan compartir acciones e innovaciones; 2) elaborar un boletín bimensual a ser compartido con diferentes audiencias en Bolivia, y con la OA; 3) realizar casos de estudio sobre acciones conjuntas entre proyectos, rescatando tanto las buenas prácticas como las lecciones aprendidas (tomando por ejemplo el estudio de caso realizado sobre Mejora Continua - esfuerzo conjunto entre BOL112 y BOL111; 4) Actualizar los documentos de proyecto (marco lógico, teoría de cambio, etc) conforme existan cambios relevantes en las prioridades y actividades del mismo; 5) Contar con una narrativa mejorada en los informes de progreso y finales con explicación y documentación exhaustiva de las acciones llevadas a cabo, cómo se lograron resultados (cómo se cumple la teoría de cambio y los indicadores del programa y presupuesto) y demostrando cómo "capitalizamos el aprendizaje" (en el caso de cambios como respuesta a demandas de un contexto determinado-ej: Pandemia).
Desarrollo regional productivo, sostenible y con mejores condiciones de seguridad y salud en el trabajo en la minería y manufactura de Bolivia - Evaluación Final Independiente La Unidad de Programación OA mantendrá informado al equipo OA sobre los formatos actualizados por PARDEV y EVAL. Asimismo, mantendrá la comunicación constante con la Unidad Regional de Evaluación de LAC para coordinar la mejor forma de garantizar la sosteniblidad y su planificación en los proyectos,y en base a ello, actualizará los instrumentos, que posteriormente, serán compartidos con el equipo.
Child labour projects in Arab States - Final cluster evaluation (RBSA component) "Community mobilization activities incorporating SCREAM modules used on a large scale through the children podium in Amman governorate. The well-capacitated CP carried out several advocacy and raising awareness campaigns that allowed good visibility to the project through incorporating SCREAM modules. In addition, concerned staff within MOE counseling Department, Ministry of Social Development (MOSD), Juvenile Police directories and National Aid fund/NAF social workers, and community leaders, were capacitated on how to advocate against CL incorporating SCREAM modules. "
Child labour projects in Arab States - Final cluster evaluation (RBSA component) "LEBANON: The project has concluded mapping of the NGOs of Lebanon who address the child labour issue and who would be able to contribute to the provision of services (educational, vocational, literacy, numeracy, compute coding and others), to prepare the children to have decent life. Despite efforts were made to put in place the structure of the CLMRS, this wa not achieved. The structuring of the CLMRS shoul provide a platform for exchanging info and knowledge nd sharing of data. Institutionalization of the CLMRS system and creation of a the network linking the key actors has been raised and continue to be one of the best possible solutions for the efforts made. However, this is a long-term objective which requires coordination - at the national level- and a lead role to the Ministry of Labour. 26 NGOs in Amman, Zarka and Irbid, in the most congested areas, were capacitated on how to integrate CL concerns into their own mandates through strategic planning and how to create a network with other stakeholders. "
Child labour projects in Arab States - Final cluster evaluation (RBSA component) "Continue with the projected plan of implementation of RBSA. There is a need to extend the full implementation of the project for an additional six (6) months with no cost. "

Promoting economic empowerment of women at work through responsible business conduct – G7 countries (in co-delegation with UN Women) - Final evaluation Recommendation not addressed to ILO
Promoting economic empowerment of women at work through responsible business conduct – G7 countries (in co-delegation with UN Women) - Final evaluation As documented in the internal Mid-term Evaluation and Final Evaluation conducted as part of the project’s implementation cycle, the project proposal was for the most part designed and agreed-upon between the EU (donor) and UN Women (main implementer). MULTI was brought in at a late stage, leaving very limited time to undertake consultations with constituents. These consultations (especially with workers and employers) were part of the appraisal process, where the proposal was shared with relevant departments, including ACTEMP and ACTRAV, giving them the opportunity to provide inputs and comments. Once the project was approved, during the first months of implementation, consultations were conducted with ILO NY, ILO Washington, ILO Tokyo, USCIB (US Employers’ organization), CEC (Canada’s EO) and KEIDANREN (Japan’s EO). On the basis of the outcomes of these consultations and the limited opportunities to engage at the country level as per the project design (ILO’s contribution was the development of global knowledge products), ILO developed its products in compliance with the signed agreement with the donor and UNWomen and continued to engage in consultation and dialogue with the Bureaux at different stages of project implementation. The situation regarding consultations in this project was unusual given the circumstances of ILO’s involvement in it. In earlier and specially in subsequent projects funded by the EU and other donors, MULTI has conducted extensive consultations with the Bureaux and other policy departments during the project design phase. It is important to note however that consultation does not equate a right to veto a project, so the assertion that other departments should “approve” a project is not correct. This was noted to the evaluator.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation Indeed, considering this aspect, when the ILO developed a progrramme titled BRMM, the project focused both on male and female migrants and also did a feasibility study looking at Ethiopia-South Africa migration corridor. Moreover, as indicated earlier, the ILO promotes the provision of support based on the nature of the support and the target group. For instance, for the provision of economic and social reintegration assistance to returnees, the ILO encourages the provision of the support to both male and female returnees. Moreover, with the labour market assessment commissioned to review the market trends in Ethiopia and the Gulf States, the ILO considered labour markets that can absorb both female and male migrant workers.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation Even though a guideline has not been developed. The ILO CO have ensured that the relevant number of men and women are targeted in different project depending on the need. In order to ensure the right participation of beneficiaries, the ILO is trying to consider the nature of the support as well as the target group instead of setting a target with “equal” participation. For instance, in a current labour migration project, where there is economic and social assistance to potential and returned migrants, the project has pushed implementing partners and the government to be inclusive of male returnees (which are the majority) in the provision of support instead of only implementing the concept of “empowerment of women”.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation The ILO commissioned a number of studies, including, labour market assessment where market trends and opportunities in Ethiopia and the Gulf, namely Kuwait, UAE and KSA, are assessed. The assessment also looked at trends in labour migration in Ethiopia and the Gulf States. Another Feasibility Study looked at Skills recognition mechanisms for selected occupational profiles of migrant workers in Ethiopia, Kenya and South Africa.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation To facilitate skills recognition, the ILO in partnership with the Ministry commissioned a Feasibility Study Skills recognition mechanisms for selected occupational profiles of migrant workers in Ethiopia, Kenya and South Africa. Moreover, the ILO is supporting the Ministry of Labour and Skills, especially the TVT to improve the quality of training delivery and skills recognition and also supported the revision of the TVT policy and strategy in this regard,. Moreover, it has also partnered with the Ministry to commission a labour market assessment in Ethiopia and GCC states to identify potential market for low, medium and high skill work. Moreover, the ILO commissioned a labour market assessment in the SNNP, Oromia and Addis Ababa to identify potential market to absorb potential and returned migrants and developed a value chain analysis. Similar employment creation initiatives are also being pursued in the agribusiness sector.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation In order to report on quality and impact of capacity building activities, a pre/post assessments and/or survey is being conducted after each capacity building activities. Moreover, some of the projects is using the ILO service tracker tool to assess the quality and satisfaction of services provided to beneficiaries and to gather information on how the capacity building have impacted the life of the beneficiaries.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation Establishing a negative list of agencies, is not the responsibility of the ILO, but rather the Government as they are the regulatory body. However, the ILO have provided advice in this regard and committed to support the Ministry, which the Ministry has agreed to pursue however, due to the Ministry's restructuring and a disagreement within the PrEAs among different leadership, they have not been able to progress in this regard.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation The whole country have a problem of blackout, so at the time of the evaluator's visit there was no electricity, however, on and off they do have power. This was confirmed through monitoring mission. The ILO considers strengthening the infrastructure to ensure the provision of quality service to potential migrants, migrants and returnees. Accordingly, based on available resources, the ILO provides support that is feasible. In instances where internet is a challenge, the ILO tries to provide support that do not require internet service such as printout information materials, videos that do not require streaming. Meanwhile, for instance, when supporting the operationalization of the Ethiopian migrant data management system (EMDMS), the ILO supported the provision of internet service and also ensure a backup system in case of electricity problem. For MICs, most equipment provided are furniture’s and computers to assist potential migrants and migrants access some information that are already downloaded in the computer.
Improve labour migration governance in Ethiopia to combat irregular migration - Final evaluation The ILO undertook capacity assessment of Private Employment agencies (PrEAs) to clearly identify where their shortcoming are. In addition, to ensure that PrEAs and its staff members self assess themselves in regards to their knowledge of fair recruitment, relevant international conventions as well as national key legislations and legal framework, a self-assessment toolkit was developed and currently being implemented. Moreover, the ILO in partnership with the Ministry organized a number of trainings on fair recruitment, Code of Conduct (which development was also supported by the ILO), national legislative framework and international conventions. Over 160 Private employment agencies where able to benefit from different trainings. The ILO further provided material support to the Federation of PrEAs to have a decent working environment and coordinate better among themselves and provide effective service to potential migrants. Last but not least, the ILO supported signing of bilateral agreement between the Ethiopian PrEAs Federation with its counterpart in Kuwait to facilitate regular labour migration.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation Since the end of 2020, the ILO has been working closely with MADLSA/MOL to develop an overarching awareness raising campaign to promote the labour reforms among society in Qatar. A series of communication products (social media posts, videos, and radio spots) with a focus on fair recruitment, domestic workers’ rights and human trafficking have been developed in multiple languages. Due to the sensitivity around these topics, there have been multiple revisions, though the launch of the campaign and its proposed communication materials remain on hold. The concerns around sensitivity proved to be well-founded, as in June 2022, on the occasion of International Domestic Workers’ Day, MOL and ILO jointly produced social media messages to raise awareness on domestic workers’ rights. This triggered significant attention on social media, most of which was negative. This reaffirmed the need for better awareness and communication around this issue, and similar communication initiatives need to be considered. The ILO continues to work closely with MOL to develop communication materials for both employers and workers on a variety of themes, and which are disseminated through various channels, including social media, website, and community networks.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation • The TCP has completed a study that provides an overview of existing public procurement practices that contain a labour rights perspective, and makes specific recommendations principally aimed at the procurement departments of public institutions. ILO is working with the MoL to finalize the report and will continue to provide technical support to promote the implementation of the recommendations.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation • Three and a half years have elapsed since the adoption of the decree regulating the elections of workers’ representatives to joint committees in Qatar. The ILO is preparing a study to take stock of the lessons learned during this time and accordingly make recommendations for the mandatory roll-out of joint committees. Recommendations will cover thresholds, needed institutional capacities, and joint committee models, all of them organized by sector. The study will be drafted in November 2022. • With the Embassy of the Netherlands, the ILO and MoL have organized trainings for 204 joint committee members from 37 joint committees on information, consultation, and negotiation rights. The trainings took please between 2020 and 2022. To ensure the sustainability of the training beyond 2023, the Embassy of the Netherlands, ILO and MoL are developing a handbook and training of trainers on employee participation rights for the hospitality sector, to be managed by the CLMCC. Meanwhile, trainings will continue in 2023 to cover the remaining joint committees.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation • The provision of food and accommodation by employers was already a widespread reality for low-wage workers – in Qatar and the region. Previous research has indicated that there is a very serious risk of including food and accommodation as part of the basic wage, as this could lead many employers to cut back on their provision of food and accommodation and consequently lead many low-wage workers to minimize their spending on food and accommodation – in order to maximize their remittances to their family members back home. There are individual and public health risks. The project has heard from a researcher of instances of workers ending up malnourished in hospital when companies adopted this approach. Workers could then also seek to share their accommodation with many workers. • Going forward, the minimum wage will be reviewed by the Minimum Wage Commission. A study titled “Minimum Wage Law in Qatar: Survey of blue-collar workers”, was commissioned by the technical cooperation programme and conducted by the Social and Economic Survey Research Institute (SESRI), Qatar University. The survey was administered through face-to-face interviews in May and June 2022, among 1,036 low-wage workers residing in collective housing facilities. The workers were of multiple nationalities, working in various economic sectors. The report was shared with the Minimum Wage Commission in September for deliberation and will inform their meeting in early 2023.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation Activities related to gender equality and greater female labour force participation were included in the design of Phase 2 of the project. To mark International Women’s Day in March 2022, the ILO and MoL organized a discussion on the topic of women and the world of work with participation from the Ministry of Social Development and Family, Shura Council, Qatar Financial Center, National Human Rights Committee of Qatar, and Qatar’s Chamber of Commerce and Industry. The outcome of the discussion was a decision to establish a working group to facilitate research and the exchange of good practices on the integration of women into the labour market. The ILO and MoL have rolled out a training programme for joint labour-management committees on Conventions No. 111 on Discrimination and No. 190 on Violence and Harassment at Work. The programme will target at least 60 companies by mid-March 2023. A key component of the training is to undertake risk and gap assessments, including of company protocols and procedures and to align them with Conventions 111 and 190 and Qatar Labour Law. To strengthen referral procedures relating to discrimination and to violence and harassment at work, the ILO and the MoL, together with the ITC-ILO, have developed self-paced online courses on the topics of discrimination and violence and harassment with tailor-made case studies for each of the labour relations, labour inspection, and recruitment departments. In the context of the trilateral MoU between ILO, MoL and the UK, the ILO facilitated knowledge sharing sessions between the Advisory, Conciliation and Arbitration Service (ACAS) and different departments at the MoL to discuss the detection and management of cases of discrimination and violence and harassment. The exchanges took place in in March 2022. Following the establishment of a central labour management consultation committee in the hospitality sector in May 2022, CLMCC members – workers’ and management – have identified the development of guidelines for addressing discrimination and violence and harassment in hotels as one of three priorities for action by the newly established body. Consultations to propose related sectoral guidelines are foreseen in early 2023. A program on a gender-responsive labour inspection was developed in cooperation with the Swedish Work Environment Authority (SWEA). A delegation from Sweden visited Doha to observe inspections, deliver seminars with inspectors, and participate in high-level coordination meetings with MOL. The work with SWEA is continuing, with follow-up coordination meetings, and an exchange visit to Sweden, tentatively scheduled for the second quarter of 2023.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation • The Project has already implemented an in-depth gap analysis, to identify the compliance of the OSH policies and legislation with the provisions of Convention 155. The results of the gap analysis have shown that the national legislation is largely aligned with C155, with few gaps remaining. The State of Qatar is studying the possible ratification of Convention 155 on OSH. In this context, the MOL and the ILO Project Office in Qatar organised a seminar with senior labour inspectors, in which ILO Doha and ILO Geneva experts presented the key aspects of the Convention and discussed the remaining gaps and other considerations in relation to the legal framework of Qatar. • A seminar on the Forced Labour Protocol (P29) was conducted by the ILO with MOL officials in October 2022. This builds on the gap analysis that was carried out last year. The seminar identified the key provisions of the Protocol, the areas where Qatar can enhance its policies and action plan, and the process for possible ratification.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation • The TCP documents experience through various means, including an annual report, technical reports, and articles. These are publicly available on the project website in English and Arabic. In addition, MOL and ILO participate in various international fora to share these experiences. • The ILO considers that engagement amongst peers is often the most effective manner of promoting good practices. In this respect, the MOL is well-positioned to share experiences as part of the GCC Labour Minister’s Meeting and the Arab Labour Conference, and through the GCC Executive Bureau and its participation in the Abu Dhabi Dialogue among the Asian Labour-Sending and Receiving Countries. The MOL has also documented and disseminated information using the platforms of the GCM Regional Review in February 2021 and the IMRF in May 2022. At the global level, Qatar participates in the Fair Recruitment Initiative Advisory Group. • The ILO has also facilitated the sharing of Qatar experience with other governments through regional meetings (e.g., upcoming regional dialogue on the climate change and migration nexus in the Arab region), and inter-regional meetings (e.g., the Africa-Arab States interregional tripartite meeting on labour migration in November 2021). The ILO and other UN agencies are working with the GCC Executive Bureau to document law and practice on absconding in GCC countries and other Arab States in the Middle East. • Looking forward, there will be more opportunities, including through the proposed inter-regional meeting between the Arab States and the African Union in 2023, and the proposed digital platform for decent work, which has received seed funding from the TCP.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation The Office is in the initial stages of assessing the model applied in Qatar in view of its replication. An academic article and a short piece in ieval helped to launch this process. The lessons drawn from these studies will inform the possible revision of Office Circular 2/163 of 1987 on Links between international labour standards and ILO technical cooperation activities with a view to their replication in future.
Technical cooperation project in Qatar - Final evaluation QCCI: • A strategic dialogue between the MoL, Qatar Chamber of Commerce and Industry (QCCI) and the International Organization of Employers (IOE) took place in October 2022 to identify opportunities for aligning practices with the labour reforms. QCCI has agreed to organize technical consultations and awareness raising activities with its members on the topics of fair recruitment and joint committees. The project is facilitating engagement between the international business community, the MoL and QCCI to encourage the alignment of practices. The latest engagement was in October 2022. Domestic Workers: • Awareness raising has been a key priority in the domestic work sector. The Ministry of Labour developed awareness raising materials such as the Know Your Rights booklet for domestic workers in Qatar in 12 languages, and the Guide to Employing Migrant Domestic Workers in Qatar for employers in two languages. These booklets are widely disseminated through social media, government offices including QVCs, community groups, embassies, private recruitment agencies and the International Domestic Workers’ Federation (IDWF). ILO is currently drafting a booklet for private recruitment agencies together with MoL to raise awareness about the legislation and concrete steps to facilitate a mutually beneficial employment relationship between domestic workers and their employers • In addition, ILO continues to engage with different communities of domestic workers from Ethiopia, India, Kenya, the Philippines etc. in Qatar through awareness raising sessions facilitated by IDWF. These sessions focus on Qatar’s domestic workers’ law, the standard employment contract, complaint mechanisms, changing of jobs and occupational safety and health. • The TCP celebrates International Domestic Workers’ Day every year since 2018 bringing together domestic workers, employers, recruitment agencies, Ministry of Labour, relevant government entities and embassies. The events aim to increase awareness of rights and responsibilities of workers and employers while prompting a discourse on relevant issues such as working hours of domestic workers and their right to a weekly paid day off. • ILO has worked with MoL and the Philippines Overseas Labour Office to design and deliver trainings for recruitment agencies focused on law compliance and tools to conduct better job matching, due diligence and conflict prevention between domestic workers and employers. New stakeholders • The ILO has partnered with Qatar University’s College of Business and Economics to mainstream labour rights into the curriculum (through the design of courses like sustainable accounting and sustainable management and through the development of context-specific case studies that integrate labour rights considerations). Taawon • In May 2022, the ILO, MOL, and ITC-ILO organized a training for Taawon members on consensus-building and negotiation skills, and the development of DWCPs. In August 2022, Taawon convened to discuss the draft recruitment toolkit developed jointly by the ILO, MoL, QCCI and the IHRB. • To further organize workers’ and management membership in Taawon, the ILO and MoL are supporting the establishment of sectoral central labour management committees. In collaboration with MOL and the Supreme Committee for Delivery and Legacy, the first Central Labour Management Consultation Committee (CLMCC) was established in the hospitality sector in May 2022.

Implementation of the Agreement concerning additional employment injury benefits to the victims of the Ali Enterprises fire and strengthening... - Final evaluation While the recommendation is highly relevant in the Pakistani context and already ongoing under this and other projects, the recommendation can not be fully realized within the planned scope of final project implementation (extended for one final year). However, some of this work e.g. promotion among employers and workers to enroll in ESSIs has been undertaken under this project (awareness raising/campaign) and to a more limited extent under other ILO managed projects targeting both enterprises that export and enterprises, that produce for domestic market. The latter projects have had more focus on working conditions, safety and health (preventing accidents and diseases) and social dialogue.

Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation The project team has reviewed the logframes of a number of policy-orientated ILO projects (particularly those focussed on fair migration) to see what lessons could be learnt. However no other projects have developed more effective/innovative indicators towards policy changes than that which was included in the FAIRWAY logframe, indicating that influencing policy change is a challenging trajectory to predict and assess. While the team did not incorporate explicit 'interim indicators' in the FAIRWAY Global logframe (as this would have led to an immensely complex document), it did work with a specialist consultant to develop more feasible output indicators for the project, leaving more long-term results to be incorporated into an ILO-ROAS Theory of Change, which the migration team - under the leadership of the Senior Labour Migration Specialist- will be responsible for monitoring.
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation FAIRWAY will convene a meeting with ROAS specialists to discuss the Concept Note for Phase 2, and will also seek guidance on a bilateral basis.
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation Under the current phase, the project had already supported social partners with a tailored strategy for domestic workers. In the next phase, the project hopes to similarly support construction workers, through a partnership with the Building and Wood Workers’ International (BWI) (global union federation on construction). FAIRWAY will support the DWT Director, Senior Workers' Specialist and Senior Migration Specialist in discussions with BWI on a wider ROAS-BWI strategy that could also include a more targeted workstream for FAIRWAY-BWI collaboration (particularly in Bahrain, and possibly also in Kuwait).
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation Given the up scaling of FAIRWAY into a global project, it may be preferable to have one M&E officer across both Africa and the Middle East. At the same time, the project acknowledges that having more staff with knowledge of the Arabic context and language is important (not just for M&E purposes) and has already recruited a part-time Arabic speaking officer in Amman, and commenced recruitment for an Arabic-speaking Technical Officer in Beirut.
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation With the merging of FAIRWAY Phase II into a global project, which will also look at capacity-building support to countries of origin in Africa, there will be a very strong need for new data-gathering and research. However, the project team will strategize on how best to develop new studies, whilst also ensuring that efforts are maintained for dissemination of existing knowledge.
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation The project agrees that there is a need for staff in a GCC country (most likely Kuwait, given the political context) but will first assess the level of support provided by the DWCP national officer (due to start in July 2019) and possible cost-sharing opportunities with other projects such as the Work in Freedom (WiF) project, before deciding on the project structure.
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation WiF colleagues have already been invited to participate in PAC and FAIRWAY/ROAS will make efforts to include representatives of other projects in future meetings (such as the Qatar project and FAIR).
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation ROAS will continue to work towards a theory of change, commenced by FAIRWAY in 2018.
Fair migration in the Middle East (FAIRWAY) - Final Evaluation There are presently a number of projects addressing various aspects of labour migration operating in the Middle East (FAIR, REFRAME, WiF, FAIRWAY, the ILO-Qatar project, and BETTERWORK and the Workers’ Centre in Jordan). Some of these projects (e.g. REFRAME and the Qatar project) are fairly recent, and the WiF project is likely to increase its engagement in the region. As such, there is a need to allow more time before embarking on a thematic evaluation. An evaluation/strategy paper would best be conducted in 2-3 years.

Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation Regular meetings are planned with GMAC and MoLVT (bilaterally) to resolve outstanding legal issues. Also, strentghening partnership with MoLVT on the Joint Action Plan, and internally in BFC a legal team has been estbalished to discuss any new legal instructions and regulations as well as clarifications on guidance of the labour law.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation In 2018, BFC developed its next strategic phase through in-depth consultations involving representatives from the tripartite constituents, brands, manufacturers, factory managers and PICC members and international partners. The results from the consultations were discussed in the Project Advisory Committee (PAC), leading to a finalised version of the new strategy. The next strategy will focus on long-term sustainability.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation • BFC continues to collaborate with MoLVT to help to strengthen their capacity, skills, commitment and integrity and highlight BFC’s role in supporting the forthcoming MoEF-Supreme National Economic Council (SNEC) garment sector strategy and any possible future role, and also to convene buyers for them to give inputs to the strategy. • Facilitated by BFC, the Transportation Working Group continues to meet regularly and address the issue of commuting safety for garment workers. BFC plays an important role of convening the brands and other stakeholders to continue improving road safety and bringing it to policy level discussions.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation • BFC takes part in all Better Work organized internal capacity development events, such as biannual global Operational Management Team meetings, annual Team Leaders meetings ensuring service delivery to factories, Regional Business Fora, leadership programmes for staff, and induction meetings for new staff. • BFC updates the fraud and risk register biannually (management team); implements the internal staff training calendar developed annually together with staff (training including both technical and leadership skills); conducts annual gender reflection/ training for all staff, organises monthly staff meetings, and bi-weekly management meetings. • As part of the ILO, BFC co-organises ILO annual planning meetings as well as BFC’s own internal planning meetings.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation As part of an ongoing collaboration between the Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training and BFC, the Joint Action Plan will be implemented. BFC undertakes regular (biannual) meetings with MoLVT to review progress made on the joint action plan and determine priorities at an annual basis in follow up to the recommendations of BFC’s mid-term evaluation. The Joint Action Plan includes capacity development of MoLVT labour inspectors, including Strategic Compliance workshops as to contribute towards MoLVT’s national labour inspection plan and in partial fulfilment of the Second Occupational Safety and Health Master Plan 2018-2022. • BFC will continue support the annual celebrations of the National OSH day with the Minister of Labour and Vocational Training, employers and unions. • BFC together with MoLVT, MoC and GMAC continues to conduct visits to low-compliance factories. The purpose of these visits are to encourage the factories to make improvements to the non-compliance issues found in the assessment reports. • BFC launched the Better Work Academy for the public and private sector actors (MoLVT, MoC, GMAC, trade union representatives, representatives from factories and manufacturers) and is implementing this two-year programme that includes knowledge sharing workshops and learning activities on national OSH overview according to BFC data, introduction to management-worker dialogue, joint vision setting and action planning. • The new BFC strategy sets out goals to amplify impact and sustainability of change in the four years ahead. A key element in this ambition is to increasingly focus on strengthening the capacity of national stakeholders – including governments, employers and workers and their representatives.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation • BFC continues to foster strategic partnerships with other UN agencies on key topics such as gender equality and women’s empowerment (UN Women) and environment (UNIDO, UNDP), as well as around Industry 4.0 (UNDP). BFC also continues its collaboration with CARE Cambodia to conduct training programmes on sexual harassment prevention. • In delivering training programmes to factories, BFC will increase its focus on collaboration with manufacturing groups to ensure that workplace issues are addressed in a more sustainable and across manufacturing groups. To support this, BFC works on developing different modular leadership programmes (in industrial relations, OSH and female empowerment) that focuses on improving systems, and capacity of management and worker representatives to uphold labour compliance in the long term, through processes of social dialogue and improved labour relations on the factory floor. • Once the Government’s (MoEF) garment sector strategy is adopted, BFC has been requested to support the implementation of the strategy, which will also be highlighted in the new Cambodian DWCP.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation BFC and ILO Joint Project Office in Cambodia work to develop the DWCP 2019-23, and looks to collaborate for different aspects of engagement in line with the Governments' strategies; e.g.the Government has request BFC to support the implementation of the garment sector strategy, and focus on sustainability of BFC in the future, which will be in line with BWG's strategy as well.
Better Work in Cambodia Phase II Multiple Donors - Midterm evaluation BFC continues to highlight gender centric activities through the following: • Gender Team meets monthly to discuss progress of the gender strategy and implement sections of the work plan. • As part of the BFC gender strategy, the BFC gender team raises gender related issues internally, which has led to designing a nursing room in BFC offices. BFC aims to continue taking steps towards becoming more gender transformative and to set an example on this topic. • BFC continues partnering with UN Women in designing a training programme on voice and representation of female bipartite committee members. The main objective of the training will be to equip female members with skills to increase their self-confidence to share their concerns during the committee meetings. • BFC continues to facilitate partnership between factories and CARE Cambodia in delivery of sexual harassment prevention trainings in factories, and facilitates discussion as well as raises awareness of the topic at industry level with buyers, factories and other stakeholders. • BFC continues to work with CARE Cambodia in raising awareness of sexual harassment among BFC staff, to enhance and improve the capacity of staff to detect sexual harassment in factories, and continues to look at its own training and advisory materials with regards to preventing sexual harassment. • BFC annually conducts a gender related training for all staff, and also a staff satisfaction survey including issues related to gender equality. • BFC continues to take opportunities to conduct research and analysis on gender related issues in partnership with other organisations and in the ILO and IFC in particular.

Expanding the social protection system for young men and women in the informal economy - Final evaluation La Oficina toma nota de la recomendación y compromete sus esfuerzos para instaurar dentro de sus proyectos donde las contrapartes nacionales presentan alta rotación la práctica de establecer mecanismos de coordinación a nivel técnico, con el fin de reducir los riesgos y mitigar los daños de tales cambios. En el mismo sentido, se incluirá dentro del trabajo con los equipos técnicos la promoción de espacios de formación y capacitación técnica a las contrapartes para generar mayor sostenibilidad y apropiación en los resultados de los proyectos.
Expanding the social protection system for young men and women in the informal economy - Final evaluation Un primer conjunto de acciones se refiere a la revisión y entrenamiento que han liderado la Unidad de Programación Regional y la Especialista Regional de Género y No Discriminación de la OIT para mejorar el trabajo de programación de los CPO en términos de sus marcadores de género y no discriminación. El objetivo de los talleres ha sido fortalecer las capacidades de los departamentos técnicos y el personal de la OIT para garantizar la incorporación de la perspectiva de género en los resultados a nivel de programa de la OIT. Un segundo elemento ha sido el esfuerzo realizado por el Departamento de Evaluación de la Oficina Regional al elaborar una nota en la que se expone las consideraciones para abordar la perspectiva de género en los proyectos durante su fase de diseño, implementación, así como para integrar el enfoque de género en los sistemas de M&E. Para asegurar que esto se operacionalice, la Oficina Andina proporcionará orientación y herramientas para asegurar 1) que todo proyecto de CT aprobado cuente con enfoque de género que se refleje no solo en la teoría de cambio sino también en el marco lógico y 2) que al inicio de cada proyecto de CT se diseñe un sistema sencillo de M&E que incluya indicadores que midan el grado en que se han logrado los objetivos de igualdad de género y cambios en las relaciones de género. Un tercer elemento a tomar en cuenta debe ser el fortalecimiento de las capacidades de los constituyentes y aliados estratégicos del proyecto en materia de género. Para ello se puede , asegurando su contribución a los avances en términos de los marcadores de género a lo largo de la ejecución del mismo. De esta forma, el plan de acción para atender esta recomendación se materializará en la revisión de la planificación estratégica de los resultados de la Oficina mediante los marcadores de género de los CPO.
Expanding the social protection system for young men and women in the informal economy - Final evaluation De considerarse pertinente, se podrían reforzar algunos elementos de la Recomendación 204 de la OIT, o avanzar en un protocolo o instrumento de nivel superior sobre los lineamientos para futuras intervenciones. De igual manera, en coordinación entre los Especialistas de Seguridad Social y de Empleo, se ha promovido el avanzar hacia una estrategia integral de formalización que incluye los aspectos señalados en la recomendación. Por supuesto, el avanzar con tal estrategia depende de la voluntad e interés de las instituciones de gobierno relevantes, así como de los actores sociales.
Expanding the social protection system for young men and women in the informal economy - Final evaluation La Oficina Andina toma nota de la recomendación y ha trasladado, mediante el envío del informe de evaluación y sus recomendaciones, tanto al al SDG Fund como la OCR para futuras postulaciones.
Expanding the social protection system for young men and women in the informal economy - Final evaluation La Oficina compromete sus esfuerzos para atender esta recomendación. De forma particular, con los recursos actuales, en el marco del liderazgo de la OIT en el grupo interagencial de protección social en Ecuador, se está desarrollando una estrategia integral de protección social junto con otras agencias del Sistema de Naciones Unidas y la OCR, con el objetivo de promover un sistema integral de protección social con las instituciones de gobierno y los actores sociales. El proyecto ha buscado asegurar que el Instituto Ecuatoriano de Seguridad Social se apropie de la campaña de comunicación elaborada en el marco del proyecto (Hablemos La Plena), en todas sus etapas, incluyendo el periodo posterior a la ejecución del proyecto (mientras el material se mantenga “fresco”): durante la ejecución de las dos primeras fases de la campaña, el IESS ha replicado la difusión de los productos de la campaña a través de sus propios canales, bajo el acuerdo de que las acciones se centralizaran en las cuentas y web propias de la campaña. Hacia el final del proyecto, la OIT se reunió con el equipo de Comunicación del IESS para transferir todo el material y las plataformas de la campaña. Desde entonces, y durante todo el primer semestre del 2022, el IESS ha integrado la campaña como contenido destacado en sus plataformas específicas para población joven (ver historias destacadas en la cuenta del IESS en Instagram: https://bit.ly/3IprF8q) y está difundiendo de forma continua el contenido de la campaña en sus otras redes sociales (Facebook e Instagram) para sensibilizar a la población joven en Ecuador sobre la importancia de su acceso a la protección social. Desde la Unidad de Comunicación de la Oficina Andina, se estará implementando un plan de difusión digital de los materiales de comunicación generados en el proyecto (no solo la campaña Hablemos La Plena) a través de los canales de las agencias del SNU involucradas en el proyecto, para el segundo semestre de 2022. Además, si se llega a contar con la estrategia de incidencia política para la institucionalización en las políticas públicas de los productos/resultados del proyectos a los que se refiere esta recomendación, la Unidad de Comunicación de la Oficina Andina, en coordinación con el Grupo de Comunicación de ONU Ecuador, se asegurará de realizar acciones de comunicación (con énfasis en prensa y comunicación interpersonal) para apoyar este plan de incidencia.

Evaluación agrupada del Programa de Trabajo de la OIT en Paraguay 2018 - 2023 En todos los nuevos proyectos formulados (algunos de ellos ya se encuentran en ejecución), se han reforzado los componentes de fortalecimiento de capacidades. Se está apoyando técnica y financieramente la participación en cursos - tanto presenciales como virtuales, a nivel nacional como fuera del país, de numerosos funcionarios públicos, tanto del MTESS como del Ministerio de Industria y Comercio y el INE; así como de las OOEE y de las OOTT. Se está fomentando la formación de miembros joven de las Centrales Obreras, en coordinación con la Mesa Sindical CSA Paraguay, para el fortalecimiento de capacidades y la renovación de liderazgos. Asimismo, se está fomentando una mayor presencia y representatividad sindical en territorios del interior del país, sobre todo en la región del Chaco, incluyendo en los procesos a personas pertenecientes a los pueblos indígenas. Se está apoyando el Centro de Estudios Económicos de la UIP-Unión Industrial Paraguaya para mejorar sus capacidades de análisis del mercado laboral y desarrollo de propuestas de políticas de desarrollo productivo con trabajo decente. En el mediano plazo, se prevé seguir reforzando la cooperación con grupos de mujeres, especialmente de los sectores de MIPYMES y de cuidados, entre las que se registran niveles muy altos de informalidad laboral y desprotección.
Evaluación agrupada del Programa de Trabajo de la OIT en Paraguay 2018 - 2023 Se ha procedido a estructurar el programa de cooperación con base en una planificación de corto, mediano y largo plazo. En diálogo constante con las contrapartes, se han planteado acciones viables de corto plazo orientadas a procesos de largo plazo. Asimismo, se han diversificado las contrapartes nacionales, de manera a distribuir las tareas entre diferentes instancias, tanto del Gobierno como de las OOTT y las OOEE. Dadas las dimensiones relativamente reducidas del equipo técnico del MTESS de Paraguay, se ha optado por trabajar estrategias inter-interinstitucionales, en las que el MTESS no necesariamente lidera las estrategias, pero está involucrado y acompañando los esfuerzos. Por ejemplo, se está trabajando en el ámbito del desarrollo productivo inclusivo y la formalización con el Ministerio de Industria y Comercio; y se ha reforzado el trabajo directo con el Instituto Nacional de Estadística (INE); entre otros. En estos casos, siempre se está manteniendo informado al MTESS. Finalmente, se ha mejorado la interlocución con las OOTT, a través de las comunicaciones con un punto focal a nivel nacional, lo cual permite calibrar mejor y optimizar la intensidad del programa de cooperación. Aún queda recorrido para optimizar el flujo de la cooperación con el MTESS. Ciertas fragilidades estructurales del MTESS, un ministerio joven y en constante crecimiento, con creciente demanda de servicios por parte de la población y con recursos limitados, hacen que surja con frecuencia la necesidad de planificación y re-planificación, en función de la evolución del contexto nacional. Por parte de la cooperación de la OIT, hay que seguir apoyando al MTESS en la mejora de sus capacidades de coordinación interna.
Evaluación agrupada del Programa de Trabajo de la OIT en Paraguay 2018 - 2023 Varios proyectos gestionados después de la evaluación (algunos ya formulados; otros en fase de formulación) mantienen un enfoque específico en lo estratégico (basados en los Outcomes del P&B y en las prioridades de la agenda de los constituyentes nacionales); pero amplio en lo operativo, es decir, estableciendo pocos detalles en la metodología para la consecución de los resultados de desarrollo definidos. Esto permite dar respuestas más rápidas y eficientes a las demandas de los mandantes. Por otra parte, se han realizado algunos ejercicios de elaboración de la Teoría del Cambio (TdC) - por ejemplo, concretamente, para la formulación del RBSA 2024 (vinculado al CPO PRY 803). Se pretende replicar esta buena práctica para futuras formulaciones, tanto de proyectos como de la estrategia integral del Programa de Trabajo Decente País. Se está analizando la posibilidad de que las herramientas interna de gestión de proyectos se orienten, en la medida de lo posible, al mismo enfoque de ""gestión por resultados"", con menor foco en las actividades a ser desarrolladas.

Better Work Global – Phase IV - Final cluster evaluation "In its new strategic phase, Better Work will strengthen its role as a knowledge and a digital innovation resource on the sector. This will be done in partnership with constituents to improve their access and capacity to use reliable, sex-disaggregated, actionable data regarding compliance with labour regulation, social dialogue, collective agreements, wages, and social security. In each country, Better Work will provide data and experience from enterprise services to illustrate how national policies affect factory-level practices. Better Work will become more agile in the use of digital technologies and a smarter mix of in-person and virtual practices. The programme will take advantage of technology and digitalization to support factory engagement to bring greater impacts and minimize disruptions in operations despite external factors such as COVID-19. Also to support accuracy and transparency in wages, Better Work will support the acceleration of digital wages where prioritized and, using technology-based solutions, unlock the direct sharing of wage compliance data for labour inspectorates to support strategic compliance interventions and wage protection. This would also include the creation of real time dashboards with factory services data on working hours, wage levels, areas of non-compliance for example on wage payment delays, under payment of wages and benefits, and gender pay gaps, as well as data on productivity. Such data would be shared broadly with constituents to support targeted action to improve compliance with national laws to better understand compliance trends and gaps."
Better Work Global – Phase IV - Final cluster evaluation In its next strategic phase, in collaboration with LABADMIN/OSH, Better Work will reinforce the capacity of labour administrations, and share data with labour inspectors to help design strategic compliance plans and better understand industry dynamics, including by scaling up a labour inspector secondee programme. Better Work will also work through LABADMIN/OSH to support labour inspectors to use and analyse effectively digitalized compliance data. Beyond working with labour inspectorates, Better Work compliance data can also support institutions in the prevention and settlement of disputes. In Indonesia, the programme will continue working closely with relevant national stakeholders to implement and improve labour law and reform labour inspection. It will continue exploring the use of Better Work data and resources by government and other stakeholders to support or reform the labour inspection function. In doing so, the programme hopes to continue building the capacity of labour inspectors to inspect and support remediation of labour violations and better systems for labour inspection. In Cambodia, BFC will implement a robust roadmap to strengthen institutional and MoLVT employee inspection and industry support capacity, especially the labour inspectorate and department of OSH officers. A Joint Workplan between BFC and MoLVT will outline key activities and milestones for capacity and knowledge transfer. This includes an induction programme for current and new labour inspectors on technical and transferable skills, joint assessment visits. In Egypt, as asthe relationship with the inspection unit of MOM expands, Better Work Egypt will begin collaborating with labour inspectors to enhance their assessment capacity - in conjunction with other ILO projects that focus on capacity building of labour inspectors. In Ethiopia, throught the ONE-ILO Siraye programme, the programme aims to ensure that pabour inspectorates of MOLSA and five regional BOLSAs have technical capacity and resources to do regular inspection and assure compliance of international/ national law and regulations. This includes the development of an information management system, the engagement of universities for specialized inspections, and the promotion of female labour inspectors. "In its new strategic phase, Better Work will build on work undertaken to date to ensure the long-term sustainability of its impact by supporting the ILO’s efforts to strengthen national capability to sustain improvements in compliance. In each country, together with the dedicated ILO technical units and country offices, constituents and garment industry stakeholders will be supported to develop long-term strategies for sustainable and inclusive growth of the sector. Working closely with ACTRAV, Better Work will leverage its partnerships with worker organizations to strengthen their capacity to promote worker voice and representation in the industry. Capacity building efforts will include access to data to support evidence-based social dialogue and bargaining. Building on strong partnerships developed with employer organizations in Better Work country programmes to date, the programme will continue its strong collaboration with ACT/EMP specialists at the regional and headquarters levels, in order to advance the work of national apparel employer federations and continue to build their technical expertise and representational mandate." As part of the new 2022-2027 strategy, all Better Work country programmes have developed or are in the process of developing sustainability roadmaps/workplans that focus on the gradual transition from factory-level to national-level activities. A series of workshops have been held to this end. The programme will adjust its fundraising strategies in the coming years as the transition of services is materializing. The fundraising strategy will consider different national contexts which might involve different cost recovery strategies.
Better Work Global – Phase IV - Final cluster evaluation "Both gender and environmental sustainability are priority themes of Better Work's new strategy. Better Work has developed a strategy to tackle the social impacts of climate change and the transition to circular economy on the workers focusing of the intersection of environmental and social sustainability for example in the area of OSH or employment. Various country programmes have included a focus on environmental sustainability in their 5-year strategies mostly focusing on the development of partnerships with existing initiatives. Better Work is not planning to offer environmental assessments per se, but will consider including additional areas in its existing compliance assessment tool that could shed light on the environmental challenges of a factory to be addressed through advisory and learning services. In the area of gender equality, non-discrimination, and inclusion, Better Work will collaborate with the relevant ILO technical units to reduce discrimination, including violence and harassment; foster women’s economic empowerment by tackling the gender wage gap and promoting career development through skills upgrading and accelerating the transition to digital wages. Better Work will support women in leadership and decision-making roles within employers’ and workers’ organizations, factories, and the public sector. The programme will also ensure that sound knowledge and data arising from this work inform national policy debates and seek partnerships to challenge discriminatory gender norms in the broader ecosystem. The programme will also build on its efforts to date to address discrimination based on disability, ethnicity, migration or refugee status, and HIV status."
Better Work Global – Phase IV - Final cluster evaluation All country programmes will be building capacity of national stakeholders and some have very specific plans to involve buyers in this (by way for example of re starting a Building Bridges style programme). We will showcase this work at global events (e.g. the Strategy Forum, Global business forum, webinars) in order to encourage the participation of buyers as well to further strengthen the trust between buyers and national stakeholders to pave the way for gradual handover of some services in time. "• We are planning for a return to in-person events this year (starting with a meeting in Paris in February) to complement the regular webinars we already run and the continuation of the Strategy Forum all of these specifically target buyers. • Our work on SLCP tool 1.6 will involve sensitising buyers on ILS as we liaise with them on tool development. • Further use (e.g. via social media) of the results of the 2022 purchasing practices will be used to highlight how buyers on practices impact working conditions. " During the pandemic buyers (incorrectly) cited force majeure in order to get out of contractual obligations. We don't therefore have specific plans to support buyers in developing contingency plans in case of force majeure but will rather continue to promote the recommendation related to force majeure contained in the 'Common Framework on Responsible Purchasing Practices' which reads 'Force Majeure can only be invoked on mutually agreed and legally valid grounds, and respects the transfer of ownership and risks defined elsewhere in the contract. If the purchasing company invokes force majeure on legally valid grounds, then at a minimum, costs already incurred by the manufacturer for the order should be paid by the purchasing company.'
Better Work Global – Phase IV - Final cluster evaluation "Better Work’s 2022-27 strategy reorientates the programme to address its sustainability challenges. The programme aims to do this by building stronger ownership over the change process with workers and employers at the enterprise level and increasing its alignment with the ILO’s efforts to build strong national institutions more capable of sustaining high levels of compliance as mentioned above. During the design of the new strategy, national constituents were at the centre of defining the programmes’ operational trajectory. However, the strategies to achieve this long-term vision differ depending on the context in each country. Critical differences include the stability of the country, economic development status, the size and relative importance of the apparel industry in the country, industrial relations climate, compliance and risk levels, requirements in existing trade agreements, external buyer presence, the motivation and interests of national stakeholders, and other factors. Another key variable affecting each Better Work country programme’s strategic approach is the ILO’s presence and priorities in each country as defined in its Decent Work Country Programmes. "
Better Work Global – Phase IV - Final cluster evaluation Strengthening our coordination with other ILO units is an important focus of our 2022-2027 strategy and a series of strategic conversations has been hold with relevant units and departments to this end. The coordination between the ILO and Better Work is also expected to be enhanced through the establishment of the new ILO Priority Action Programme on Decent Work Outcomes in Supply Chains, which will support the establishment of coordinated ILO supply chain interventions in various sectors, including the garment sector. This provides an opportunity for Better Work to formalize our partnerships within the ILO. Given the success of the ONE-ILO approach in Ethiopia, Better Work has adopted such approach in all its new country interventions in recent years and has also promoted this approach in existing country programmes such as Bangladesh. Through these ONEILO interventions, the ILO supports national institutions and industry partners to implement the priorities set out in national development strategies and industrial policies. Through the ILO Priority Action Programme on Decent Work and Global Supply chains, the ONE-ILO approach will also be promoted in other sectors to which Better Work will contribute as appropriate. "Facilitating communication between workers and management has been central to Better Work’s approach and success over the years. Our interventions related to social dialogue have taken varying forms: delivering workplace communication training, facilitating bipartite worker-management committees for the purpose of continuous improvement, and engaging with sectoral and national institutions, among other activities. As Better Work enters a new strategic phase, a re-investment in and broadened approach to social dialogue is an essential priority for the programme. We will work in concert with technical units in the ILO on this topic. Beyond the workplace, we will support national constituents to strengthen social dialogue in the workplace, and we will influence global supply chain actors to play a supportive role. While the quality of social dialogue is more challenging to measure than more objective attributes of the workplace, we will re-double our efforts to develop methods of measurement and collect data to support research and evidence-based policy making." As the garment industry is strongly dependent on global trade, Better Work has proven to be a tool that can harness trade and investment incentives at the country level. Better Work will support governments in their commitments towards the sector under existing and new trade agreements, whilst providing an entry point for ILO and IFC policy advice. In countries like Bangladesh and Egypt, trade incentives are used to encouraged States to adopt ILO’s recommendations on labour law reform and improve compliance with ILO Core Conventions.

Strengthening Labour Inspection system for Promoting Labour Standards and ensuring workplace compliance in Pakistan - Final evaluation The office has continued the capacity building through projects and RBTC. Labour inspection is also one of the risk factors identified under the Better Work programme and thus will be continued under this as well.
Strengthening Labour Inspection system for Promoting Labour Standards and ensuring workplace compliance in Pakistan - Final evaluation While the office recognizes the need for further female inspectors as well as outreach to sectors with a high(er) percentage of female employees (typically in the informal sector) and addressing more effectively gender related issues e.g. pay gap, the office does not agree with that the project didn't address this matter. The project thus used materials for labour inspectors that was produced by the GE4DW project (ended in 2016) instead of developing new materials. The issue also needs to be seen in the context of the generally very low female labour force participation rate. The issue of e.g. introduction of further female inspectors was one of the themes at the tripartite national consultation on labour inspection 11-12 December 2019 and some of the provinces e.g. KP has recently inducted a few more into its cadre. Expansion of the labour laws to effectively cover the informal economy will help in reaching further occupations that traditionally employ women.
Strengthening Labour Inspection system for Promoting Labour Standards and ensuring workplace compliance in Pakistan - Final evaluation This is a recommendation that is expected to be continued once the Better Work is launched

Support is ongoing to the KP province to have the new OSH Act adopted, while Sindh has now approved the Rules to implement its OSH law. Punjab is in the process. Labour Officials from GB has also received training on OSH and other labour inspection issues through a series of training in 2019 and a dedicated three day training in December 2019.

Promocion y cumplimento de los Principos y Derechos Fundamentales en el trabajo en Brasil - Midterm evaluation El equipo técnico del proyecto se ha propuesto incorporar de manera más concreta las cuestiones de genero para, en última instancia, poder fomentar la igualdad de género, en el diagnóstico de los nuevos planes de trabajo. # Ejemplo de esto es el PT Terra Roxa, iniciado a fines del año 2021. En el presente momento, se está llevando a cabo un Diagnóstico Rural Participativo (DRP) de la Comunidad Terra Roxa, localizada en el estado de Pará. La caracterización de la Comunidad y el contexto en el que se encuentra, está siendo pensada de manera a incorporar las dimensiones de género, raza y etnia. Esto significa que, además de buscar informaciones sobre números y porcentajes en términos de composición, participación en el trabajo y en la economía no remunerada o de cuidados, el DRP busca entender el papel desempeñado por mujeres y niñas dentro de la Comunidad, identificar la existencia de redes femeninas de apoyo y determinar en qué medida se dá la participación femenina en los espacios de liderazgo existentes. Además, se analisa el tema bajo el prisma de las politicas públicas que puedan apoyar el objetivo de alcanzar una mejor equidad de género. # A partir de agosto de 2022 y con una duración de doce meses, se implementará un acuerdo de ejecución con enfoque específico en las mujeres en el marco del Plan de Trabajo de Maranhão. El objetivo es capacitarlas en el tema del trabajo esclavo y ofrecerles acceso a alternativas de generación de ingresos.
Promocion y cumplimento de los Principos y Derechos Fundamentales en el trabajo en Brasil - Midterm evaluation # El area de intervención de los proyectos con fondos del MPT es definido en acuerdo con los fiscales que destinan los recursos para la OITy el area escorrida es el area donde la violación ha ocurrida y la sancion aplicada. Así, no hay como la OIT interferir en la selección del area de intervención. # Sistematizar la experiencia alcanzada en la Secretaría de Estado de Asistencia Social de Maranhão cuando, en los últimos años, logró integrar el tema TI y TF en sus acciones de forma conjunta. # Contratar un especialista en monitoreo de proyectos para apoyar en la evaluación de algunos PT's que han sido completados o que están por finalizar a la luz de la gestión del conocimiento y aprendizaje. # Se creó un google drive específico para archivar los productos logrados dentro del alcance del proyecto. Es una herramienta simple que se puede compartir a través de un enlace con los socios interesados. # El area de comunicación de la Oficina de la OIT en Brasil está haciendo una revisión de la sección de los proyectos en el sitio de la OIT. La idea es que los principales productos del proyecto sean también disponibilizados en el sitio de la OIT.
Promocion y cumplimento de los Principos y Derechos Fundamentales en el trabajo en Brasil - Midterm evaluation # Se están llevando a cabo negociaciones entre la OIT y la Procuraduría General del MPT para buscar una solución. No es una decisión que pertenezca exclusivamente a la OIT. # Ídem a 2.1 "# El equipo técnico del proyecto creó un modelo de rendición de cuentas que se puede aplicar por separado a cada PT; # Enviar anualmente al MPT la rendición de cuentas individual de cada PT. Sin embargo, la OIT y el MPT están en proceso de revisión del Termino de Cooperación y un de los puntos de revisión es el modelo de rendición de cuentas.
Promocion y cumplimento de los Principos y Derechos Fundamentales en el trabajo en Brasil - Midterm evaluation # Diseminar y estimular el uso del SmartLab en los espacios de actuación del equipo del proyecto (reuniones, eventos, capacitaciones, etc.); # Usar los datos contenidos en Smartlab como fuente de referencia cada vez que escriba nuevos términos de referencia; # Siempre que sea pertinente, utilice los espacios de actuación del equipo técnico (reuniones, eventos, capacitaciones, etc.) para difundir la Plataforma Ipê como canal de denuncias de TE y TI; # Mantener actualizada la EMAP para utilizarla como repositorio de información sobre los resultados alcanzados; # Mantener un canal de diálogo abierto con los mandantes tripartitos a lo largo del proyecto; # Fortalecer el diálogo social con las comisiones locales; # Buscar en las instancias locales formas de institucionalizar localmente acciones que puedan ayudar en la consolidación de las comisiones.
Promocion y cumplimento de los Principos y Derechos Fundamentales en el trabajo en Brasil - Midterm evaluation # Realizar reuniones semanales para intercambiar experiencias e información sobre los planes de trabajo con el objetivo de generar sinergias en la implementación de actividades, como por ejemplo, potenciar el apoyo de socios que pueden actuar en los diferentes planes de trabajo. # Está previsto iniciar una revisión presupuestaria en el mes de septiembre, 2022. Esta revisión tiene como objetivo incorporar los nuevos recursos financeiros depositados por el donante. Esa puede ser una oportunidade para también hacer una revisión de la TDC para simplificarla y establecer prductos más adecuados. SIn embargo, esa revisión será realizada após la aprobación del donante. # En el inicio del proyecto no había un modelo comun para los planes de trabajo. Sin embargo, con el tiempo, el equipo verificó la necesidad de establecer un modelo de plan de trabajo, incluyendo la TDC. Así, todos los nuevos planes de trabajo siguen ese modelo. # Contratar una consultoría para apoyar en la elaboración de indicadores, línea de base y metas a nivel de PT, revisando así los PTs. Sin embargo, esa revisíon de los indicadores será realizada solo en los planes que están en ejecución. Esa misma consultoría también realizará una revisión de los indicadores del proyecto Paraguas. # Ya se ha desarrollado un EMAP y se está utilizando para monitorear el proyecto. Como el proyecto está en la mitad del camino, no es posible realizar un estudio de evaluabilidad al arranque. Sin embargo, la lección se graba para futuros proyectos.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation La Oficina toma nota de la recomendación y muestra de ello es que en nuevos proyectos de la OIT se está avanzando con procesos de análisis de necesidades que involucren y validen con los constituyentes de la OIT el diseño de los proyectos previa a su implementación.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation Se toma nota de la recomendación. La Unidad de Comunicación de la Oficina Andina se compromete a desarrollar una estrategia de comunicación para -como se indica en la recomendación- “mejorar la difusión, conocimiento y comprensión de los recursos generados, para ampliar sus posibilidades de apropiación e institucionalización”. Se debe notar, sin embargo, que las acciones de comunicación no pueden funcionar por sí solas, sino que deben apoyar acciones/planes de incidencia que el equipo técnico ponga en marcha específicamente con el objetivo de garantizar la “apropiación e institucionalización” de los recursos y recomendaciones generadas en el proyecto. Para llevar a cabo esta estrategia, se prevé apoyo del equipo de comunicación de OCR porque -dada la experiencia acumulada con el proyecto- se deberán priorizar tácticas de comunicación interpersonal y prensa, que son mejor gestionadas desde el terreno. En línea con esta recomendación, la Unidad de Comunicación de la Oficina Andina se compromete a elaborar una nota técnica donde se justifique la necesidad de contratar personal local de comunicación ad-hoc cuando se trate de proyectos de la envergadura (y complejidad) del PATSS. Esto, con el objetivo de que esta persona pueda diseñar y ejecutar una estrategia de comunicación sostenible en el tiempo e interactuar de forma continua con los actores implicados en el proyecto. Esta nota será socializada con todos los equipos de proyectos de la Oficina para asegurar este tipo de contrataciones en futuras intervenciones de este tipo en el país y en la subregión en general.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation La Oficina toma nota de la recomendación y muestra de ello es que en nuevos proyectos de la OIT se está evaluando la posibilidad de desarrollar comités consultivos tripartitos para que los constituyentes puedan verse involucrados a lo largo de toda la implementación del proyecto y apoyen en el monitoreo del mismo. La Oficina Andina, adicionalmente, se compromete a incluir y detallar en futuros convenios los mecanismos de coordinación , así como roles, responsabilidades de las partes implicadas. Actualmente, los proyectos cuentan con convenios que incluyen estos detalles.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation En el contexto del plan de seguimiento y monitoreo del Marco de Cooperación 2022-2026, la Oficina Andina ha consultado con las organizaciones de empleadores y las organizaciones de trabajadores respecto del acompañamiento cercano para aprovechar los resultados obtenidos en el marco del PATSS y otros proyectos de la Oficina de la OIT en Ecuador. En tales espacios de intercambio, se ha comprometido los esfuerzos de la Oficina para mejorar el seguimiento y monitoreo de las resultados por parte de los constituyentes, con particular énfasis en las actividades relacionadas con la protección social. De forma adicional, la Oficina por solicitud del IESS y del FUT, dio apoyo en la moderación de mesas de diálogo cuya finalidad fue llegar a consensos en el corto y mediano plazo para el fortalecimiento del IESS.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation La Oficina toma nota de la recomendación y comprometerá sus esfuerzos para incluir las causas y el diseño de acciones específicas para la igualidad de género en futuros proyectos.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation Se toma nota de la recomendación y será un elemento a considerar para futuras iniciativas, principalmente las que ameritan cambios estructurales, normativos o institucionales.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation La Oficina Andina tendrá en cuenta la recomendación para futuros proyectos y cuenta con las herramientas necesarias provistas por PARDEV. Se transmitirá esta recomendación al staff de los nuevos proyectos.
Programa de Asistencia Técnica para la Seguridad Social - Ecuador - Final Evaluation La Oficina Andina, mediante el grupo interagencial de proteccion social, esta desarrollando una estrategia integral de protección social junto con otras agencias del Sistema de Naciones Unidas y la OCR, con el objetivo de promover un sistema integral de protección social con las instituciones de gobierno y los actores sociales. Complementariamente, un primer hito que ya se destaca ha sido la inclusión dentro del Marco de Cooperación del Sistema de Naciones Unidas en Ecuador 2022-2026 de estos elementos con indicadores a cumplir por las agencias del sistema, entre ellas la OIT. Por otro lado, la Oficina está desarrollando una estrategia para escalar los resultados obtenidos en el PATSS mediante la movilización de nuevos proyetos de protección social, formalización del empleo y fortalecimiento del diálogo social.

Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The workplan/roadmap discussion includes the Danish Embassy, the other key partner in the OSH landscape to ensure coordination and effectiveness of support to MOLIP. The idea of the Local Consultative Group on OSH has been discussed with management and will be discussed with the PCC tomorrow.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The Myanmar team is paying much more attention to gender in its reporting. The Gender Action Plan is an activity that the VZF Secretariat will support (and it's currently planned and will be discussed at the VZF retreat in Turin) as it does not relate exclusively with Myanmar but to the entire VZF approach in several countries.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The project team will continue the discussions on its next phase and the linkages with the implementation of the OSH Law, including the establishment of a working/advisory OSH group derived from the PCC. When these agreements are reached, the sustainability workshop can have a proper backdrop for the Minister to chair it.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The Myanmar VZF team is currently discussing with VZF's Secretariat further alignment of both M&E frameworks and related tools (e.g. logframe and performance plan). Progress has been achieved but a consolidated transition plan will be finalized in the VZF staff retreat in Turin in September as this is not an activity exclusively related to Myanmar.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The VZF team has already met with two trade unions and will meet next week with employers and the remaining trade union to discuss capacity building and further involvement in project activities as per the workplan (the project was deliberately designed to bring more strongly social partners in the second half of implementation). Concrete steps and agreements have been taken with two trade unions.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The project is continuing its appropriate focus and is incorporating the necessary actions to respond to new demands such as the support to tripartite constituents on OSH Law and OSH Training Centre
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The PCC will meet tomorrow to provide initial inputs to VZF Phase II. A follow-up workshop to finalize details is being scheduled for October. MOLIP/FGLLID and the ILO/VZF/OSH Portfolio (and Danish Embassy) will meet on Friday 30 August to discuss the roadmap/workplan for the implementation of the OSH Law including the drafting of sectorial regulations that will inform coordination activities with line ministries.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The team has discussed with all recommended partners already but delays on the partners' side (change of staff in UNIDO and non-disbursement of ACDI-VOCA funds by USAID for political reasons) have delayed concrete action with those actors. The team met Helvetas and is collaborating on the support provided to Snacks Mandalay. The team met GIZ and collaboration is envisaged in market facilitation for a German buyer and other activities related to organization of a potential "ginger cluster". The team is planning to engage ex-Winrock staff to support M&E and other activities
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation There is no action plan needed for this recommendation as staff expenditures are fixed for the remaining time of the project and no staff dismissal is envisaged or advised. The project has been cost-effective as also found in the MTR so the team and hence its associated costs will remain the same.
Vision Zero Fund - Myanmar - Midterm evaluation The Liaison Office, VZF Myanmar and Geneva teams agreed to continue the work in ginger in the current and next phase. The project will continue to strengthen achievements in ginger and replication in other crops through strengthening of OSH functions in Shan. Garment will not be dropped but the scope can be refined in a next phase based on the outcomes of the first phase. The budget envelop will be expanded to include a third sector, construction, as suggested in the MTR by partners, with sufficient budget to cover another NPO without unbalancing the ration of activities to staff costs. Discussions will take place within the PCC to gather inputs and define details.

Change Management to achieve impact with insurance - Phase II - Final evaluation Yes where possible, longer Fellowships are generally preferred. Alternatively, we would identify a counterpart with the financial institutions who would be our contact point and who would be responsible for implementation and reporting.
Change Management to achieve impact with insurance - Phase II - Final evaluation If we do start a new project with FSDA, we certainly can look at possible regulatory barriers. But we do not think that the project that recently completed should have addressed this issue because it was not within the scope of the project.
Change Management to achieve impact with insurance - Phase II - Final evaluation In the future, we would not work with a partner that we did not select - lesson learned from this one.
Change Management to achieve impact with insurance - Phase II - Final evaluation Yes in future Fellowship programme activities, clear work plans and timelines will be developed with the Fellow and the implementing organization.
Change Management to achieve impact with insurance - Phase II - Final evaluation This has always been our plan and expectation, but the problem sometimes is with the implementation. Usually with about six months to go in the Fellowship, we start working with the Fellow and partner agency to develop an exist strategy, especially identifying who will take responsibility for the implementation and reporting when the Fellow leaves. However, sometimes after the Fellow has left, the company may have a change of plans or priorities that we can't really control.
Change Management to achieve impact with insurance - Phase II - Final evaluation We completely agree with this recommendation, but it is not always under our control since the data is coming from the partner companies, and they do not always have a clear distinction.

Elimination of Worst Forms of Child Labour in Seasonal Agriculture in Hazelnut Harvesting in Türkiye Based on the lessons learned of the first year implementation of the project monitoring mechanism, some improvements have been made and mitigation measures have taken in the second year of the project by assigning more staff through implementing partner to ensure the coordination with the relevant stakeholders including the Ministry of National Educations’ district commissions.
Elimination of Worst Forms of Child Labour in Seasonal Agriculture in Hazelnut Harvesting in Türkiye With regard to mapping recommendation articulated in the mid-term evaluation, following to donor organization endorsement project management planned mapping research to be undertaken. Necessary plannings has been finalized and the mapping study have been initiated with relevant researchers. An informative video will be broadcasted where the findings of the developed in-depth monitoring mechanism presented. With the developed monitoring mechanism seasonal, agricultural families and their children are being monitored during their entire migration covering and ending-up in the hazelnut harvesting. Through the informative video seasonal agricultural workers migration pattern and other relevant crop groups will be included and mentioned. As also indicated in the mid-term evaluation report, there is a specific project activity that is “the coordination meeting(s)” which in being implemented. Based on the activity regional meetings in the target provinces with relevant stakeholders is being organized. In line with the evaluation recommendation, mentioned regional coordination meetings will be continued to be organized both in the beginning and end of the harvest season in a more inclusive manner by inviting also other stakeholders such as local municipalities.
Elimination of Worst Forms of Child Labour in Seasonal Agriculture in Hazelnut Harvesting in Türkiye Developing of the second phase of the project is ongoing in coordination with the donor organization. During the design of the project mentioned vocational training(s) activities have been integrated to the draft project proposal to be considered in the upcoming implementation phase. A well-structured in-depth child monitoring mechanism has been established with the respective implementing partner in the city of origin (sending province) to monitor the attendance of seasonal agricultural families’ children to the formal education. As mentioned above second phase preparations of the project is ongoing. In the up-coming phase a gender-sensitive and special training programs will be added for the mentioned target group.
Elimination of Worst Forms of Child Labour in Seasonal Agriculture in Hazelnut Harvesting in Türkiye General Family trainings are being provided to the seasonal agricultural families during the harvest season. Those training provided general information regarding migrant workers’ rights. In the second phase of the project the content of the general family training family will be revised with a particular focus on social bargaining.
Elimination of Worst Forms of Child Labour in Seasonal Agriculture in Hazelnut Harvesting in Türkiye Based on the request, developing of the second phase of the project is ongoing in coordination with the donor organization. In the second phase of the project there will be a specific exist strategy activity where a pilot activity (most probably implementation of the direct intervention mechanism) will be implemented in coordination with the relevant local public partner(s).
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) phase III – Myanmar - Midterm evaluation At present, the political crisis in Myanmar has created a very challenging environment for consultations. The UN engagement principles do not permit engagement with the de facto authorities. Other relevant stakeholders (eg. BDS partners) could potentially be available for consultation, though many are in crisis mode resolving security problems, which does not provide a conducive environment for consultation related to long-term planning Provided there is a significant improvement in the operating environment, the project will launch a series of consultations with relevant stakeholders in order to inform the strategy for the next phase of the project
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) phase III – Myanmar - Midterm evaluation Due to the current political crisis, work on the development of the next DWCP is on hold. In particular, this is due to the new UN engagement policy which prohibits policy engagement with the de facto government, to avoid legitimising it. If there is a change in UN policy, DWCP development activities may be resumed. In this case, a review will be carried out to develop potential strategies and activities that could be used for ensuring a broader adoption of the MSD approach
Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) phase III – Myanmar - Midterm evaluation -As part of the review of the result chain and the subsequent project tracer study, indicators on trainer attrition will be included and analysis generated on these -In Q4 2020 and Q1 2021, a consultancy was carried out on marketing communications for SIYB and SCORE Trainers

Sustaining Competitive and Responsible Enterprises (SCORE) phase III – Myanmar - Midterm evaluation In 2021, the project will consult with existing SCORE Trainers about their ideas and preferred model for developing the institutional capacity of SCORE in Myanmar. The project had recruited a company to conduct research on entities which was due to start in Q1 2021. This has been delayed due to the political crisis, but it is hoped that this will be able to start in Q2 2021, provided there is an improvement in the operating environment Once the above consultations and research have been completed, the project will develop a strategy for SCORE institutional development, which will be integrated into the design of the next phase of the project

Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Au debut du projet j'etais pas encore recruté avec le BIT mais voici les actions entreprise par le plan Avant de mettre en œuvre cette activité, le plan a entrepris plusieurs actions pour évaluer et comprendre les implications de la construction en terre crue, ainsi que pour mesurer l'efficacité du PECOBAT dans la lutte contre le changement climatique. Analyse du bilan environnemental de la construction en terre crue: Le plan a étudié en profondeur les avantages environnementaux de la construction en terre crue, reconnaissant son potentiel positif en termes de bilan carbone et d'empreinte environnementale réduite. Cette analyse a servi de base pour orienter les futures évaluations. Recherche de données et d'expertises internationales: Pour évaluer l'impact concret de l'utilisation de matériaux locaux sur la réduction des émissions de CO2 et de l'empreinte carbone, le plan a réalisé une recherche approfondie de données et a consulté des expertises internationales. Cela a permis d'acquérir une perspective plus globale et d'identifier les meilleures pratiques en matière de construction durable. Étude quantitative et qualitative: Conscient de l'importance de quantifier et de qualifier l'impact environnemental, le plan a planifié la réalisation d'une évaluation approfondie. Celle-ci vise à mesurer de manière précise et rigoureuse la contribution de l'utilisation des matériaux locaux à la réduction des émissions de CO2 et à l'empreinte carbone. Mesure du bilan carbone: Le plan s'est engagé à mener une évaluation détaillée du bilan carbone des infrastructures construites en terre crue. Cela implique de calculer de manière exhaustive les émissions de CO2 tout au long du cycle de vie, de la construction à l'utilisation. Études complémentaires sur le confort thermique: Reconnaissant que la durabilité ne se limite pas uniquement à l'aspect environnemental, le plan prévoit également une étude sur le confort thermique offert par les constructions en terre crue. Cette évaluation contribuera à la compréhension globale de l'efficacité de ces infrastructures. Comparaison avec les économies de matériaux importés et industriels: Pour établir un tableau complet des avantages, le plan réalisera des études comparatives entre l'utilisation de matériaux locaux et industriels. Cela permettra de mettre en évidence les économies potentielles en ressources et en émissions de CO2. En combinant ces actions, le plan s'efforce de fournir une évaluation holistique de l'impact environnemental et climatique de la construction en terre crue grâce au PECOBAT. Cette approche rigoureuse contribuera à déterminer l'efficacité réelle de cette initiative dans la lutte contre le changement climatique et à informer les futures décisions.
Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Les actions entreprises par le plan pour cette activité ont été élaborées de manière à adresser les difficultés d'insertion professionnelle auxquelles font face les jeunes formés sur la construction des infrastructures en terre. La méconnaissance du fonctionnement et de la structure du marché du travail local a été identifiée comme un obstacle majeur, et nos efforts se sont concentrés sur la mise en place de mesures spécifiques pour améliorer leur insertion dans des emplois durables. Pour aborder cette problématique de manière efficace, nous avons initié un processus de diagnostic spécifique avec notre partenaire CFPP(centre de formation professionnel). Ce diagnostic a été conçu pour offrir une compréhension approfondie du fonctionnement et de la structure du marché du travail local. En anticipant les obstacles potentiels, tels que la volatilité du secteur du BTP et les emplois temporaires, nous avons pu mieux préparer les jeunes formés à faire face à ces réalités et à adapter leurs attentes. En parallèle, nous avons reconnu l'importance de sensibiliser les chefs d'entreprises et d'offrir un coaching pour renforcer leurs compétences en matière d'actions commerciales. Cette approche vise à accroître leur portefeuille de clients, tout en les préparant à mieux négocier et gérer leur activité dans le secteur du BTP. Une capitalisation sur les solutions du Programme HIMO de l'OIT a également été envisagée. Ce programme, qui implique la formation des entreprises aux techniques HIMO (Haute Intensité de Main d'Œuvre) et aux modalités du chantier-école, offre un soutien financier aux entreprises retenues. Cela inclut l'accès à des prêts pour l'acquisition de matériel nécessaire et des garanties de paiement, ce qui contribue à renforcer la stabilité financière des entreprises et à les encourager à participer aux appels d'offres. Enfin, nous avons reconnu que la formalisation des entreprises et l'accès au financement sont des éléments cruciaux pour renforcer leur solvabilité. En leur permettant de participer aux processus de passation de marchés et de préfinancer certaines activités de démarrage, nous créons un environnement plus favorable à leur réussite à long terme. En somme, nos actions reflètent notre engagement envers une insertion professionnelle réussie pour les jeunes formés sur la construction des infrastructures en terre. En prenant en compte les spécificités du marché du travail local, en sensibilisant les entreprises et en offrant des solutions concrètes de soutien, nous visons à créer des opportunités durables pour leur succès.
Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Pour relever les défis actuels concernant les besoins matériels et techniques des centres de formation professionnelle ainsi que leur couverture limitée dans la mise en œuvre de la méthodologie du chantier école, notre plan met en place des actions concrètes pour renforcer ces capacités et favoriser une adoption réussie de cette approche novatrice. Dans le cadre de notre engagement, nous continuerons à apporter un appui continu aux autorités nationales, en particulier au Ministère en charge de la Formation professionnelle et à la DGFTP. Nous travaillerons en étroite collaboration avec ces instances pour intégrer de manière optimale la méthodologie du chantier école dans le dispositif de formation professionnelle existant. Cela implique la conception de plans d'intégration, la coordination des ressources nécessaires et la mise en place de mécanismes de suivi et d'évaluation pour assurer le succès de la mise en œuvre. Dans le même esprit, nous œuvrerons à renforcer les capacités des centres de formation professionnelle en comblant les besoins matériels et techniques identifiés. Cela peut inclure la fourniture d'équipements spécifiques, de matériels pédagogiques et d'outils nécessaires pour la réalisation des chantiers écoles. Notre objectif est d'assurer que les centres disposent de l'environnement adéquat pour offrir une formation de haute qualité et conforme aux standards. En parallèle, nous développerons et mettrons à disposition des guides détaillés sur la mise en œuvre des chantiers écoles. Ces guides fourniront un cadre méthodologique clair pour les formateurs et les apprenants, garantissant ainsi une compréhension approfondie de cette approche d'apprentissage pratique. L'effort concerté pour continuer à soutenir les autorités nationales, renforcer les centres de formation et mettre en place des ressources de guidage témoigne de notre engagement à favoriser l'intégration réussie de la méthodologie du chantier école. Nous sommes déterminés à créer un environnement propice à l'acquisition de compétences pratiques et pertinentes, préparant ainsi les apprenants à réussir dans le marché du travail.
Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Pour assurer le maintien des recommandations et garantir le succès continu de cette activité, notre plan se concentre sur plusieurs axes stratégiques visant à consolider les acquis et à répondre aux défis actuels, notamment le contexte d'insécurité dans la région du Sahel. Tout d'abord, il est essentiel d'établir une collaboration solide entre les mandants et les donateurs pour évaluer de manière approfondie l'impact de cette approche innovante sur la cohésion sociale et la consolidation de la paix en Mauritanie. Cela nécessitera la définition de lignes de référence claires, la mise en place d'indicateurs pertinents et la documentation de bonnes pratiques émergentes. En travaillant de concert avec les parties prenantes, nous pourrons mieux appréhender les effets concrets de nos efforts et les domaines où des ajustements pourraient être nécessaires. Une attention particulière sera portée sur les jeunes à risque et exclus du système traditionnel de formation professionnelle. Notre plan consiste à élaborer des approches sur mesure pour les intégrer dans nos initiatives, en leur offrant des opportunités significatives de développement de compétences et d'emploi. Cela peut impliquer des programmes spécifiques, des modules de formation adaptés à leurs besoins et des méthodes d'apprentissage flexibles pour maximiser leur participation. Par ailleurs, nous nous efforcerons de renforcer la coopération avec les autorités locales et les partenaires communautaires pour créer un écosystème favorable à la pérennisation de ces initiatives. Cette approche implique de collaborer étroitement avec les acteurs locaux, d'impliquer les communautés et de développer des mécanismes de suivi participatifs. En somme, notre plan pour la réalisation de cette activité repose sur la collaboration continue avec les mandants, les donateurs, les autorités locales et les partenaires communautaires. En combinant nos efforts et en adaptant nos approches, nous sommes convaincus que nous pouvons maintenir les recommandations et atteindre nos objectifs en termes de cohésion sociale, consolidation de la paix et développement des jeunes à risque en Mauritanie.
Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Les actions mises en œuvre par notre plan ont joué un rôle déterminant dans la création d'un environnement propice à l'utilisation de matériaux locaux dans la construction. À ce stade, il est essentiel de maintenir cette dynamique positive en continuant à promouvoir l'intégration de matériaux locaux dans les projets d'infrastructures à l'échelle nationale. Plusieurs mesures stratégiques sont en cours pour garantir la pérennisation de cette approche bénéfique. Tout d'abord, nous nous engageons à soutenir la réalisation d'un catalogue exhaustif de normes et de spécifications techniques dédiées à la construction en matériaux locaux. Ce catalogue sera un outil essentiel pour guider les professionnels de la construction dans l'utilisation optimale de ces matériaux, garantissant ainsi des structures durables et résistantes. De plus, nous travaillons activement sur la cartographie des ressources en matériaux locaux à travers le pays. Cette initiative permettra une meilleure compréhension de la disponibilité et de l'accessibilité de ces matériaux, facilitant ainsi leur utilisation efficace dans les projets de construction. Dans le même esprit, notre plan vise à renforcer la collaboration avec les ministères concernés, notamment le ministère de l'Environnement et le ministère de l'Habitat et de l'Aménagement Territorial. Nous continuons à travailler en étroite coordination avec ces entités pour promouvoir la construction écologique et la mise en œuvre de projets respectueux de l'environnement. Enfin, nous sommes déterminés à poursuivre et à étendre nos efforts pour la promotion des emplois verts à travers l'écoconstruction. L'établissement d'exécution des travaux réalisés en matériaux locaux joue un rôle clé dans cette initiative, en créant des opportunités d'emploi durables et en contribuant à la transition vers une économie plus respectueuse de l'environnement. En somme, notre plan s'engage résolument à maintenir et à renforcer l'élan positif établi jusqu'à présent. En continuant à promouvoir l'utilisation de matériaux locaux, à établir des normes de qualité, à cartographier les ressources et à collaborer avec les ministères concernés, nous visons à créer un impact durable dans le secteur de la construction tout en favorisant des pratiques respectueuses de l'environnement.
Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Les actions entreprises par le plan pour la mise en œuvre de cette activité ont été déterminantes afin d'intégrer avec succès la méthodologie du chantier-école. Notre engagement envers cette approche a impliqué des étapes clés pour garantir son efficacité et son impact positif sur la main-d'œuvre et le marché du travail. En premier lieu, nous avons concentré nos efforts sur l'établissement de partenariats solides avec le secteur privé. Cette collaboration a été essentielle pour créer un environnement propice à la pratique sur les chantiers. La coopération avec le secteur privé a permis d'accéder à des opportunités de formation pratique authentiques et de garantir que les compétences acquises par les apprenants sont en phase avec les besoins réels du marché du travail. Pour améliorer la qualité de la main-d'œuvre issue des chantiers-écoles, nous avons mis en place des stratégies innovantes. Ces stratégies visaient à fournir aux apprenants des compétences qui correspondent non seulement aux exigences actuelles, mais aussi aux évolutions futures du marché du travail. Cela a impliqué la mise en place de programmes de formation axés sur les compétences demandées par les employeurs. La mise en œuvre des dispositions légales et normatives a également été un élément clé. Nous avons inclus des clauses d'attribution dans nos partenariats avec les entreprises privées, garantissant ainsi l'intégration des jeunes formés dans les centres de formation technique et professionnelle. En outre, les incitations fiscales ont été utilisées pour encourager activement les entreprises privées à participer à la méthodologie du chantier-école. Cela a créé une dynamique positive où les entreprises sont motivées à investir dans la formation des jeunes tout en bénéficiant d'avantages fiscaux en retour. En résumé, les actions entreprises par le plan pour la mise en œuvre de la méthodologie du chantier-école ont été variées et cohérentes. Elles ont compris la création de partenariats durables avec le secteur privé, l'adaptation des programmes de formation en fonction des besoins du marché du travail, et l'introduction de mesures légales et incitatives pour encourager la participation des entreprises. Ces efforts combinés ont permis de mettre en place une approche dynamique et proactive, qui non seulement renforce les compétences des apprenants, mais également répond aux exigences changeantes du marché du travail.
Appui à la dynamisation du développement économique local dans les zones défavorisées - Final cluster evaluation Les actions soigneusement élaborées par le plan pour la mise en œuvre de cette activité démontrent notre engagement à résoudre les défis auxquels font face les jeunes sortants des chantiers école en matière d'insertion professionnelle. Reconnaissant l'importance de fournir des opportunités tangibles pour ces jeunes, nous avons mis en place des mesures stratégiques pour les accompagner dans leur transition vers le marché du travail. Pour adresser ces problématiques, nous avons établi un réseau solide de partenariats avec des entreprises du secteur du BTP qui partagent notre engagement envers la méthodologie du Chantier-Ecole. Ce réseau servira de socle pour créer des occasions d'insertion professionnelle et permettra de garantir que les compétences acquises par les jeunes sortants correspondent aux besoins actuels du marché de l'emploi. Nous reconnaissons également l'importance de coordonner nos efforts avec d'autres programmes pertinents. Dans ce contexte, les jeunes sortants des chantiers école seront activement pris en charge dans les sélections des programmes tels que les SPE Techguil, ainsi que dans des initiatives comme les programmes de l'AFD axés sur l'auto-emploi et "Mon Projet, Mon Avenir". Cette approche permettra aux jeunes engagés et motivés de bénéficier d'un large éventail d'opportunités pour leur développement professionnel. En somme, les actions mises en place par le plan reflètent notre dévouement à surmonter les difficultés d'insertion professionnelle auxquelles font face les jeunes sortants des chantiers école. Le réseau de partenariats, la coordination avec des programmes pertinents et l'intégration dans des initiatives ciblées sont autant de moyens pour soutenir et encourager les élèves engagés et motivés dans leur parcours vers un avenir professionnel prometteur.
