description:

An effective, and well-thought-out Theory of Change framework is needed for ILO operations on just transition and the green economy.

context:

With the lack of a clearly articulated ToC framework, the linkages between inputs, outputs, outcomes and impacts are not clearly identifiable. The creation of a robust ToC could have aided in clarifying how the project-level interventions (whether that be at a global, regional or country level) contribute to the overall objective of ILO activities within this sector.

success:

ILO has achieved a lot with limited resources through its CCPD on just transition, however these results could have been communicated and brought past an output level with the production of a robust ToC framework.

challenges:

Without such a framework, the communication of results beyond the purely output level is sometimes lost. This is especially true when seen from the view of a donor, whose main line of communication will be project-level narratives that are sent as part of annual reports.

administrative_issues:

ILO should seek to establish a ToC framework for its work on just transition to environmental sustainability, which would aide in giving the institution a clearer strategic direction within this sector. This would also aide in discussions with donors, as they would clearly be able to see how their support could eventually lead to higher level impacts/outcomes.
