According to the terms of the contribution agreement with the European Union, no significant changes to the theory of change can be made at outcome level for the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme. Further, it was agreed at the recent Programme Steering Committee meeting that a revision to the Theory of Change (TOC) is not necessary for the current phase of the programme. A review of the TOC will instead be conducted in preparation for the next phase of implementation for the Ship to Shore Rights SEA programme. Nevertheless, further practical coordination efforts will be made between the three UN agencies and internally within the ILO to ensure that the potential synergies are maximized.

title:

9. Review the theory of change- consider how the different outcomes build on each other. This exercise would support the refreshing of ideas of how the different elements of the programme interact with each other to achieve the intended impact. Attention should be paid to how the separate work of ILO, IOM, and UNDP interacts to produce the pathways of change, as well as what connections exist between other migration and fishing programmes implemented in the region, and the different strategies for particular corridors of implementation and different strategies for working with migrant and local fisher communities. The exercise would support initial discussions on what the next phase of the programme would look like, as well as providing an internal opportunity for the regional team, NPCs, and UNDP and IOM to work together to develop how the work in the different countries contributes to the overall impact of the programme. This is not intended as an exercise to restructure the programme but one to reflect on the theory behind the programme and how this is working in practice and ensure the goal in the M&E manual to ‘support continuous improvement in understanding of the linkages between the activities and their intended long-term impact’ is achieved.
