description:

An important lesson learned of the FRLR project is the need for realistic time frames and goals when planning interventions related to FPRW and social dialogue. Legal, administrative and institutional changes take time, and the initial duration of project was too short, and goals too ambitious, to achieve intended results. Therefore, technical assistance offered in the field of social dialogue and FPRW should be planned for a longer period of time, possibly in the form of a programme rather than projects, to allow for the generation of lasting results and impact.

context:

Project was designed without proper consultations with Constituents Attainment of all approvals from the Government took more than a year

success:

Understanding of the necessity to introduce of theory of change in all phases of the project implementation to ensuring long-term impact and sustainability of the project

challenges:

Inability to deliver all planned outputs within project’s timeframe Insufficient time for sustainable capacity development of social partners Difficulties in demonstrating tangible results because of coverage too many topics and sector

administrative_issues:

 Substantial delays in project implementation. Overburden of project staff due to high volume of work. Compromise on quality and focus on delivery rate.
