Summary
4.2 Lessons Learned 4.2.1 Regarding the Overall Intervention from an Outcome-oriented Perspective The essence of the evaluation is to assess UNDPs added value and UNDP management/delivery approach for this kind of regional project with national outcomes. It will no doubt provide excellent lessons to be able to replicate this type of project modality in the future. However, at least some general lessons about the very essence/logic of this type of intervention (a regional technical assistance centre, etc.) should be drawn. Is this type of intervention in itself relevant and useful, and should be replicated? Going directly to administrative and management modalities seems to not question the usefulness of the intervention in itself. Most elements to determine this will be generated by the relevance and effectiveness assessments, and it would be interesting to include this reflection from a lessons learned perspective. What can we learn from this type of intervention from an outcome-oriented perspective? 4.2.2 Regarding UNDP Project Management and Delivery Application The participation in a project management should not go beyond 5 years. By definition, the institutions should get the capacity to continue doing the tasks, while UNDP could assume a more specific role in substantive issues.
