  15. 3.1 Activity #1 #1 ComparativeAnalysis & GapSituation MainFindings • Initialdeadlinewasextendeddue to finantialconstraintsbutwasreported as finishedsince Feb.09. • Reportswereproducedandshared as planned. • A Strategyof Unilateral Learningwaschanged to a MultiLateralLearningStrategy

  16. 3.1 Activity #1 #1 ComparativeAnalysis & GapSituation • Thephysicalexecutionofthisactivityendedwithout major contrainsts. • Therewasreported a delayinthe Micro Reportwithoutaffectingoutcomeseffectiveness. • Riskmitigationaboutreprogrammingofstrategywasreportedtowards mutual learningapproach.

  17. 3.1 Activity #2 #2 TwiningDevelopmentPlanImplementation MainFindings • Progressreportsidentifiedsamedelaysintermsofactivitiesresults; as thestrateychanged, therewas some impactinthisphase. • TwiningPlansand a “HeatMap” Analysisweredevelopedandpresented to Partners (during 2nd FieldMission). • 30 Actionswerepresented as “Short-termWins”; 8 selected to beimplemented as priorities

  18. 3.1 Activity #2 #2 TwiningDevelopmentPlanImplementation • Thephysicalexecutionofthisactivitywasacomplish

  19. 3.1 Activity #3 #3 TwiningStudyVisits MainFindings • Project had to managebudgetdelaysbutitwaspossible to makestudyvisits; Therewere some externalevents (Islandvulcanicactivity) thatchangedinitialprogramming. • 1st Visit (Ne):Therewereproducedreportsaboutpractices (ex: eGov). • 2nd Visit (Pt): Therewaspresented a HeatMap” analysisandselectionof top 30 measures to beimplementedin a “short-termwins” approach.

  20. 3.1 Activity #3 #3 TwiningStudyVisits • Thephysicalexecutionofthisactivityreported some delaysbutthe objectives setwereacomplished • Thedecisionsneededandlearningexpectationswerereported as achieved

Risks Antecipated* (and Risk Mitigation Actions) • Training as staff from Partners left… New employees receive information H • As Partners with different Backgrounds (e.g. Legal), achieving agreements is not always easy - Roles and responsibilities defined and Flexibility • As Difficulties establishing communication and action platforms - One NE partnerleftthe Project; KS introducedanotherentity M Impact L H L M * Not exaustive Likelyhood
