comments:

After initial request from the EC , the frequency of communication was significantly increased beyond what is required in the actual agreement / contract. In the period when there was no national coordinator in Greece, monthly progress reports and activity plans were prepared and submitted to the donor. 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.

action_plan:

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.

title:

Future TA projects should adopt a more "active" approach towards the communication with the donor in order to keep it in the loop of all project’s developments and milestones and make it more involved in the project’s implementation. For that reason, it is recommended to hold bi-weekly donor’s briefing sessions and prepare monthly calendar of activities.
