Lesson
Project partnership agreements with government on human resources and funding are critical to effective implementation and sustainability. While initially the project national project implementation unit had issues on staffing, procurement, and implementation, these were resolved with incremental additional staffing, recruitment of a small core team of individual consultants, and restructuring to a subproject management unit. The non-recruitment of a social development specialist; to be funded by the government, affected the Gender action plan monitoring and planned survey update.

Preparatory studies of project design, which ensure technical feasibility during project preparatory phase, help reduce the effect of implementation delays that may arise due to changes in project scope or geographical conditions. As such, project master plans need to be properly supplemented by technical details to ensure suitable configuration of components. These need to cover the whole range of alternative technical options that are available.
