Lesson Learned

In many cases, program partners will have capacity constraints and require significant, long-term support to achieve expected substantive outcomes.

In many cases, program partners will have capacity constraints and require significant, long-term support to achieve expected substantive outcomes. Therefore, reform programs must be designed so that activities provide sufficient support (in duration and level of effort) to program partners to achieve concrete outcomes rather than simply outputs (such as reports) or recommendations which may not be implemented. This significant resource requirement must be accurately reflected in implementer terms of reference (TORs) and contracts.
