Lesson-148933-6

Working together with government offices from the federal to ward levels. One good practice of the She Thrives project is the collaboration it has with government offices (from federal to ward levels). Working with the government structures from the top to grassroots levels has contributed to the smooth implementation of the She Thrives project interventions. The project was able to conduct joint monitoring and evaluation of project activities with the government stakeholders biannually, creating conditions where the two parties come together to discuss the problem of child labor. That, in turn, helped to develop good understanding and communication between the officials and the project staff. The collaboration was not limited to the federal government stakeholders; the same was true of the line offices throughout smaller administrative levels. The collaborations with government ministries and the corresponding offices at the lower levels have contributed to the smooth implementation of the project’s interventions.
