action_plan:

Management will place more attention to strengthen information sharing and coordination among the project teams. Management will create also a web workspace (smartsheet) to plan, organize and monitor the work developed within the project to ensure collaborative and transversal linkages between country-projects. The project will also use the ILO's monitoring and impact measurement tool to capture and disseminate the information from the various country components of the project. RAF: • Regular exchanges among the three African countries focused on social protection (Mozambique, Malawi, Zambia) including TRANSFORM are continued. • Regular meetings and exchanges with the Irish Embassies are continued. • Collaboration reinforced with Irish Embassies in the context of the pandemic to initiate new collaborations e.g. on cash assistance • Feasibility of a regional forum on social protection analysed. Tanzania (EIIP component): • Regular meetings with the Irish Embassy as well as with bi/multilateral organizations, UN agencies, ILO social partners and NGOs supporting TASAF PSSN are continued. • Regular exchange with the DWT in Pretoria and with DEVINVEST in Geneva are continued; • EIIP reports and technical guidance shared with the other project components staff. Global: • Regular (quarterly, and ad hoc) collaboration meetings between components' managers and specialists, and between departments (SOCPRO/DEVINVEST) are organized; • A survey organized to identify priority areas for technical advisory support and follow-up action taken. • A series of papers deepening the experience of the countries involved is proposed – the first one would tackle the covid 19 crisis and its impact on SP systems strengthening; • All project staff trained in the use of the ILO’s Results Monitoring Tool • Project staff use the ILO’s Results Monitoring Tool to share information on the project https://www.social-protection.org/gimi/MonitoringTool.action • An webpage for the project is developed to share project information and knowledge products
