comments:

This is a recommendation that can be given and considered in the next phase of PPDP project if the donor was to grant phase two as it resonates well with lessons learned during phase on implementation.

action_plan:

The project discussed with the donor (SIDA) and agreed on the new targets as follows; The donor did not approve outputs 1.1 targets remain unchanged 1,200 graduates as SIDA notes that the 6 months no cost extension will provide additional time for assessment and certification, assuming the VTCs are not closed due to the pandemic. Outputs 2.2 the new target is 300 instead of 400 women and youth in business trained on At least two business management modules Output 2.3 the new target is 250 instead of 550 women and youth linked with financial service providers The project will update the PPDP partners on the changes during the next Partnership Advisory and steering committees.

title:

Ambitions and quantitative targets at realistic levels In view of the delays and interruptions caused by the covid 19 pandemic, the Project should lower its ambitions and quantitative targets, for example in relation to outputs 1.1 (VTCs producing graduates); 2.2 (business development training) and 2.3 (post-training support). This should not be interpreted as diminishing the importance of the Project´s activities – however the aspirations should be set at more realistic levels in view of the likelihood of a continued pandemic situation. The details should discussed with the donor representative and Partners, and be reviewed again by the final evaluation.
