The Office does not believe such a review is relevant or useful at this stage. The operating contexts and the modalities of Lebanon and Jordan projects are very different. Also the guidance from the donor and the larger UN frameworks is very different and has evolved over time differently in both countries, also taking into account the wider refugee response. More technically, the labour intensity also depends on daily wage rates and type of EIIP interventions, given capital costs for infrastructure assets. Setting a rate or seeking to compare such a rate is not considered relevant.

title:

A review of the rationale for the difference between the two programme on the target labour intensities and proportion of participants being employed for a minimum of 40 days. On EIIP Jordan the labour intensities required are much higher than on EIIP Lebanon. The differences lead to differences in the types of projects the programmes have been led into implementing. There could be very valid reasons for these differences. The review would enable clarification of the rationale or development of a more uniform approach for the two programmes.
