Concerning better focus on outome levels, P&B 2020-21 Policy Outcome 6 was drafted in close consultation with relevant specialists across HQ units as well as in field offices. This highly-consultative process resulted in rigorous methodological notes for corresponding indicators for outcomes rather than outputs. Concerning both the first and second recommendations, a gender equality and non-discrimination marker was developed with gender and non-discrimination specialists before being launched by PROGRAM as part of the P&B 2020-21. The marker, for which guidance, definitions for codes, and examples were also developed and disseminated, aims to among other things promote outcome-focused planning and implementation, as well as monitoring and reporting. It also requires sex-disaggregated data along with such disaggregation by other relevant factors when relevant such as HIV status, disabilities, or concerning indigenous peoples. The marker, which aligns with the one introduced by UN country teams, can also be a key tool for improving monitoring and evaluation processes.

action_plan:

-CPOs and global products better focus on outcome -- not output -- levels, (and ) -All data collection should be disaggregared by sex. Concerning recommendations on a results-based M&E system, suggest these be shared with EVAL (recommendation more relevant to EVAL)

title:

Build coherent monitoring and reporting systems to better appreciate the impact of the SIPP The impact of the Partnership Programme should be understood as part of an institutional intervention at the ILO instead of being regarded as stand-alone interventions, as the SIPP activities have been integrated into the mainstream agenda of the ILO. To bridge monitoring and reporting gaps, indicators for both CPOs and global products should focus on the outcome level, not the output level. Certain tools to measure outcome level results have to be designed and regularly applied in data collection, such as pre- and post-questionnaire to measure the quality of training and workshops, covering knowledge acquisition, attitude change and potential applicability of new practices. All data collection should be disaggregated by sex. Most importantly, a result-based M&E system should entail a shared database fed by the data gathered under different interventions by different ILO work streams.
