LESSONS LEARNED AND GOOD PRACTICES. ‌ 4.1 Lessons Learned‌ The lessons learned described below are derived from both positive and negative experiences. • The designed scope of the project in terms of the target beneficiary number should have been more modest to allow for greater quality of delivery and more manageable scope in terms of staff resources. • The livelihoods model could have been designed differently from the outset; rather than assigning better off families to savings groups and the poorest to livelihoods development start-up, it could have ensured that all households access a combination of savings services and livelihoods supports. • Volunteers can be successfully mobilized at commune level, for example the community partners and the CWGs and equivalent groups. • Ensuring consistent and continuous monitoring and quality data collection is vital to ensure the project is properly tracking its interventions and targets and capturing its achievements and learning. • Establishing working groups (TWG-CL and E-TWG) at the national level has helped the project engage the national partners in support of the project and align its implementation with country developments in relevant sectors. • Exposure and monitoring visits can be very helpful for the stakeholders in different localities to learn from each other.
