- lessons_learned:
- description:
- The commitment of implementing partners is key, extending beyond ministries of labor.
- context:
- The lesson is derived from a mid-term evaluation of the Safe Youth @ Work project. With funding provided by the US Department of Labor, the ILO launched a four-year, US$10.4 million project in December 2014 – Building a Generation of Safe and Healthy Workers (GLO/14/20/USA). On 24 November 2015, USDOL approved a modification to the cooperative agreement, bringing the total budget to roughly US$11.4 million. The project is currently operating in three “pilot” countries – Myanmar, Philippines, and Vietnam – and five “participating” countries— Cote d’Ivoire, Ecuador, Mongolia, Indonesia, Uruguay

- challenges:
- The MTE found that some partners were not willing or able to commit resources needed to implement or sustain activities. While the ministry of labor often serves as the focal point for ILO projects, it is important to note that the support of other ministries may be needed, particularly ministries of agriculture or public works in countries where those sectors are targeted. Sustainability and scale are dependent on forging relationship with implementing partners that are committed to the same objectives and have the requisite reach and resources to effect change.
- administrative_issues:
- Agreements with partners should be explicit and backed by financial commitments and/or a clear strategy for securing requisite funding through a combination of government funding, foundation grants, membership dues, and/or fees-for-services.
- comments:
- The lessons should be considered by ILO officials in planning and managing country-level projects
