description:

The ILO's skills projects in Lebanon require a sufficient level of technical human resources due to their complexity and involvement with multiple stakeholders in a challenging environment. The lesson learned is that future interventions would benefit from having a continued sufficient amount of staff.

context:

The insufficient human capacity to undertake the set activities was caused by the cost-effectiveness strategy adopted by the project, which had led to sharing of several positions with two other projects. In addition, the projects experienced serious staff turnover

success:

The ILO projects demonstrated a significant level of flexibility to adapt to the highly challenging implementation context. The project management adopted several measures to address these challenges and managed to minimize their (negative) impact on project implementation. Examples of such measures are: Backstopping project staff through internal technical support; Close collaboration with UNICEF and other stakeholders; Building on existing UN partnerships; Considering alternative training solutions; Adapting methodologies, activities and work-plans

challenges:

The shortage of human resources assigned to the projects has overburdened the project staff. This was a significant internal factor that caused challenges for the project management and implementation.
