Mechanisms to ensure the availability of RBL-specific information from all participating states and/or government agencies need to be incorporated in the program design.

Project Number: 47354-003
Project Name: Supporting National Urban Health Mission
Report Date:
Lesson
This validation offers the following lesson: keeping the stakeholders engaged through national interventions and securing sources of post-TA financial resources (unless the TA project was a project preparation TA) is important especially for capacity building TA projects, to ensure continuity and sustainability of the project.

Project Number: 48143-001
Project Name: Enhancing Association of Southeast Asian Nations Capital Market Integration
Report Date:
Lesson
The TCR lesson is not clearly articulated as a lesson. In finalizing this validation report, the NRM rephrased the lesson and provided additional information: ADB’s continuing support remains essential in pursuing policy reforms and building government capacity in project implementation. A TA for $500,000 under the Food Safety and Agriculture Commercialization Program will support the government in meeting the second tranche policy actions.

Project Number: 46380-001
Project Name: Sustainable Infrastructure Assistance Program

Analysis of any post-TA allocation (or commitment) of resources to sustain TA activities/outputs could be useful indicators of sustainability.

Project Number: 49342-001
Project Name: Implementing ICT Tools to Improve Data Collection and Management of National Surveys in Support of the Sustainable Development Goals
Report Date:

Lesson
No lesson offered. How PPP knowledge and/or experience from other regions can be replicated in Asian countries.

Project Number: 48377-001
Project Name: Financing Public-Private Partnerships
Report Date:
Lesson
The lifting of regulatory standards, the development of a project pipeline and the development of strategic trade and transport facilitation implementation plans help to direct government focus for budget allocation. Donors and the private sector are motivated to invest in areas where strategic development has already commenced, and where strategic plans are in place that have a coordinated long-term focus, and which can clearly demonstrate positive project outcomes.

Project Number: 46502-001
Project Name: Trade and Transport Facilitation in the Pacific
Report Date:
Lesson
This is a description, not a lesson for a future TA project.

Project Number: 42417-045
Project Name: Vertical Mobility and Safety Improvement
Report Date:
Lesson
The TCR lesson is valid. Also, if a country’s priorities change after an election, because of a change in government, this can jeopardize work done towards needed infrastructure or other investments. Rather than lose the gains made through that work, ADB and other development partners can work with other partners to incentivize investments from other areas. If the analysis that underpinned the advocacy of the initial investment is robust and relevant, then there may be ways to pay for the said investments despite changes in government priorities.

Project Number: 46374-001
Project Name: Southern Highways Investment Program
Report Date:
Lesson
As continued financing of gender-projects can be a challenge, a key lesson for ADB is to consider options for financing continued support to sub-projects including from other ADB TA resources. ADB teams could also prepare solid gender project financing proposals and market these to other donors so that these can be scaled up

Project Number: 48206-001
Project Name: Promoting Gender Equality and Women's Empowerment (Phase 2)
Report Date:
Lesson
The nature of the new post-TA project should be explained, e.g., its relationship with the existing TA project (for example, whether it was aimed to address the audit observations issue mentioned above), its funding sources, and whether the existing TA project was instrumental in leveraging the new resources.

Project Number: 45317-001
Project Name: Support for the Third Primary Education Development Project
Report Date:
Lesson
Given the availability of a medium to long term plan for port operations development, the government can rationalize additional allocation to the national budget for public infrastructure development to support the plan’s implementation.

Project Number: 45078-001
Project Name: Strategic Masterplan for Chittagong Port
Report Date:
Lesson
One of the drivers of the development of the Strategic Master Plan for Chittagong Port was the interest shown by investors. The plan provides a strategic approach to facilitate engagement with the private sector for development. The existence of a master plan is attractive to donors and developers and facilitates further development.

Project Number: 45078-001
Project Name: Strategic Masterplan for Chittagong Port
Report Date:
Lesson
Having a very successful and efficient small-scale TA activity that fulfills the needs of country partners and sets the stage for long-term strategic planning can catalyze subsequent larger-scale investments that scale-up and more fully implement the TA inputs. With a relatively short duration (implemented over approximately 19 months), and a modest budget ($0.42 million USD disbursed), the TA successfully provided important TA support for the country partners. Following the completion of the TA, the country partners were interested in a follow-up project.
