comments:

The Regional Management Team recognizes this concern being raised during the evaluation process by stakeholders. While changes in activities and strategies are possible and were adopted during the implementation of SAF, revisions in project design, targets, may require changes to the agreement with the donor. Such revisions to agreement would require time and may result in the whole programme implementation coming to a stand still affecting the beneficiaries even more. .

action_plan:

• Engage donors as part of the programme design and inception phase, alongside stakeholders, to create a shared understanding of the needs for flexibility during implementation. Advocate with donors during the programme proposal and design phases to build in flexibility to make modifications during implementation based on stakeholder feedback and important changes to the operating context. This will help to ensure that programming continues to be aligned with the changing needs and priorities of rights holders such as WMWs. • Continue to use platforms such as RPAC, NPACs, and CSO Reference Group as opportunities to receive stakeholder feedback and implement suggested changes regarding implementation approaches within terms of the agreement.

title:

Recommendation #6: Include mechanisms that allow for more flexibility to modify the programme design and implementation approaches throughout EVAW and labour migration programme implementation in response to stakeholder feedback and changes in operating context. • Aligned with Conclusion #6 • Recommended timeline: 1 January 2024 – no end date • High urgency, low difficulty, medium impact • Directed to ILO, UN Women, and UNODC senior staff Rationale: To ensure that development programming remains responsive to stakeholder feedback and to important changes across the operating context, programmes require mechanisms to adjust the programme design and implementation approaches throughout the programme’s implementation. To operationalize this recommendation: • Work with donors during the programme proposal and design phases to build in flexibility to make modifications during implementation based on stakeholder feedback and important changes to the operating context. This will help to ensure that programming continues to be aligned with the changing needs and priorities of rights holders such as WMWs. • Use stakeholder engagement platforms such as the Safe and Fair Programme’s RPAC, NPACs, and CSO Reference Group as opportunities to receive stakeholder feedback and implement suggested changes regarding programme design and implementation approaches. This will help to ensure that stakeholders, including women’s civil society, remain engaged throughout programme design and implementation.
