Lesson
The need for ADB to focus more on sectors in which it has substantial experience, from which it can draw from during the relatively fast pace of processing and implementing an emergency project. Also, given limited resources, sector selectivity is important to ensure a significant impact. Moreover, emergency project designs should likewise incorporate provisions for O&M of project facilities to ensure their sustainability.

Lesson
Project management and monitoring during implementation, especially during the initial stages, is also important. This is because at these stages, more data and information on conditions become available and enable changes to be made to the design to mitigate unforeseen factors that may risk the outcome.

Lesson
The primary lesson is that emergency support requires additional focus on planning and thorough preparation despite the usual time constraints. Given that conditions in such a situation are often uncertain and unreliable, project design needs to be robust to be able to deliver critical relief to the affected population.

Lesson
An additional lesson is that if the executing agency’s limited relevant experience of project design and implementation is known at the outset at the project design stage (i.e., as confirmed in the risk assessment), it is necessary to design appropriate mitigation strategies. These could include the following: (i) design smaller pilot projects to gain experience before larger projects are tackled; or (ii) make significant consultant support available in the early stages of implementation to strengthen capacity and ensure timely implementation.
