action_plan:

The project will update its communications strategy, which will include the following: - Developing and disseminating a bimonthly newsletter that will be distributed to the donor, project stakeholders, and internally to effectively convey project progress and strategy. -Developing a schedule of biweekly social media posts to promote OSH and project activities. Additionally, the project will coordinate meetings with current government officials to prepare for the transition to the new government and secure the project’s continuity. The project will improve the information included in the project’s TPR to include a more strategic analysis of the project’s progress, achievements and challenges. The project will develop an annual TPR summary to be published at the beginning of every calendar year and develop material for “ILO Voices” stories.

title:

1. Better communication and contingency plan Conversations with both the project team and ILO backstopping staff showed that although the project has produced some valuable communication materials, there is room for improvement in effectively showcasing the project's strategy, especially to USDOL, ILO (internally), constituents, and other project partners, beneficiaries, and the general public. Additionally, this is particularly important in light of the upcoming electoral process and any potential changes in key personnel in government agencies that may occur as a result. It is important that the project has materials that allow for communication, for example, with the different campaign teams before the elections, and with the new senior officials who will be appointed in the different key government agencies after the elections. These communication activities could also be included in a broader contingency plan to avoid disruptions to the project. Moreover, it is recommended that the project make an effort to improve the information included in the TPRs. It is important to describe the activities undertaken, perhaps not in such detail, while it is also important to introduce analyses that allow for an understanding of the extent to which the expected results are achieved.
