Lesson
Target dates for performance indicators should be sufficiently set long after the likely date of disbursement or policy action. This is to identify a plausible causal relationship between investments and actions taken by the program and a change in the performance indicators. This was not the case in the performance indicators under output 1.

Lesson
the project results chain was sound although there could have been more explicit connection between the output performance indicators and the outcome economic development performance indicators. The DMF could have included a wider range of potential impacts, especially benefits—particularly if dissemination and adoption elsewhere is a project intention.
