Final Evaluation of the Parliament support project
In spite of a challenging context, UNDP’s substantial effort at creating functionality through capacity development of Parliamentary staff and MPs has broadly been successful in terms of transferring skills. Training reports indicate a rich curriculum of training content has been delivered through the project. The gap arises in being able to track and establish how well the transferred skills have been operationalised to create impact. The project successfully delivered competence and capability for selected functions for both Parliamentary staff and MPs. On the other hand, measures of the staff providing assistance to Parliamentarians or Parliamentarians actively engaging staff in initiating parliamentary business are sparse.
