- recommendations:
- title:
- Recommendation 6: At the provincial level, the project should invite development partners to form part of
the reference groups and steering committees. At the national level, the project should engage the UNCT and
other development partners in the NRES development and implementation process.

- action_plan:
- Although Development Partners are not "stakeholders", they were invited judiciously to participate at the provincial levels in appropriate fora where they have a presence. To involve them in budgeting and workplanning, as the report states, risks diluting and burdening the decision-making and accountability mechanisms. When these points were raised in the matrix of comments to balance the evaluator's views, the reply was: "The statement is correct. No change." No attempt was made by the report preparers to engage in reflections and critical thinking of pros and cons of their recommendations.
- comments:
- At the national level, the UNCT, UN Outcome Groups, and government ministries’ working groups have taken up the NRES and directions for rural employment. A new livelihood and decent work group was created by government which will steer NRES implementation. The report could have been more specific in its recommendation.
