lessons_learned:

description:

Working with state agencies is critical for buy-in, dissemination and sustainability of ideas. Involving LMO staff so they could enrich the process of labour market information analysis, and dissemination was critical.

context:

Labour market information in Egypt is not readily available in government custody for different groups of users. While several institutions produce labour market information products, there is neither a joint repository, nor a common frame to produce labour market information in a unified manner

success:

There is strong ownership and support by the key stakeholders as seen by involvement in the UCCDs, MoHESR and the LMO. There is also an elaborate and structured ILO administrative policies and procedures, which allow for transparency in decisions regarding use of resources against agreed project actions.

challenges:

There was no proper data base even at the state partner level. The turnover of LMO staff made the latest staff to be engaged in the middle of the project thus slowed processes.

administrative_issues:

ILO has an office in Cairo which has increased the efficiency of management and the project adopted a participatory approach through continually taking feedback from the UCCD staff.

comments:

The donor, ILO, the government, UCCDs, AUC as well as other relevant stakeholders, Technical Officers, Monitoring and Evaluation Officers.
