title:

Revisit the ToCs applied for enterprise promotion and employment generation, particularly regarding their scalability and potential to grow. The pilots tested have shown their ability to be profitable, but the project has not clearly identified how to scale them up and create jobs on a significant extend. There is need to identify formulas to turn the small-scale but profitable initiatives into economic trends and sources of employment. The horticulture chain would need to scale up its size and increase its market share while the construction materials chain would require an in-depth analysis of the market conditions, particularly an assessment of the demand side, its dimension and characteristics. In general, ILO might look other options involving stakeholders with stronger positions in the market and bigger potential in terms of impact. As for the EII programs, a more refined sustainability strategy seems to be necessary to get it embedded into institutional routines, particularly from public institutions. It is deemed appropriated for Moztrabalha to collect additional data and information during the remaining period of implementation (until March 2020) on the extent that these programs have appropriated and replicated. Based on the findings, a decision could be made on whether this model has reasonable chances to thrive in Mozambique and under which conditions.
