lessons_learned:

description:

The use of local skills can greatly facilitate the implementation of activities in new contexts in which there is no ILO presence or where it is difficult for ILO personnel to reach. A main lesson learned by the project’s experience in implementing large scale field-level activities in Basra is that the use of local consultants can help avert adverse implications to the project’s efficiency and effectiveness from such contexts.

context:

This lesson is relevant in novel operating contexts in which the ILO has not worked before.

success:

The project team’s decision of recruiting local consultants to manage and monitor project activities in the field drove implementation forward.

challenges:

Remotely managing a substantial scope and number of activities in new contexts where there is no ILO leads to delays and inefficiencies in implementation.

administrative_issues:

The experience of this project actually highlighted the need to have an ILO office in the governate of Basra. And eventually, during the last few months of the project timeline, the ILO opened its branch office in Basra to support its activities under other projects.
