comments:

The operational costs of the project are too high to add new staff. Most evaluators recommended to share resources. This is our approach now.

action_plan:

The Office will recruit a M&E official who will work for all projects and funded by DC projects. This is a recommendation from several evaluators and M&E consultants as they considered that most projects are too small to have a full-time M&E official per project.

title:

Recommendation 9: The ILO should establish a robust M&E system for the projects. The ILO, with the collaboration of the different actors, should develop a well-structured M&E system to track progress during the life of the project, not only concerning short-term results (outputs) but including medium-term results (outcomes)-including the skills acquired and the quality-of-life indicators following a well-structured assessment process led by the Entrepreneurship Center. Also, this system should track the decisions and actions proposed in the different meetings and workshops and promote collective learning among other actors at different levels, reporting on the trainees’ performance considering specific indicators on both knowledge, attitude & practice pillars, in addition to the partner assessment, even every year, to maximize the benefit of the partnerships developed. Also, it is highly advised to use resources allocated under monitoring to recruit an M&E person (based in Damietta) to oversee the different M&E activities in the 2nd phase of the project, where they can work closely with the national project coordinator to track the progress more effectively during the life of the project and inform ILO and other key partners to do the corrective actions-when needed.
