The project is implemented by the ILO Country Office for Sri Lanka and the Maldives and the UNOPS Country Office for Sri Lanka and the Maldives in Kalutara & Gampaha districts of Sri Lanka.

  • Assess effectiveness of the project (The extent to which the project has achieved its planned objectives equitably and whether it has contributed to mitigating the immediate needs of MSEs during the time of COVID19 challenges) 
  • Assess efficiency including the effectiveness of its management arrangement,  assess the partnership and collaboration between ILO and UNOPS in delivering this joint project 
  • Assess the emerging impact of the project (either positive or negative) and identify factors that enable the sustainability of the project’s benefit;
  • Provide recommendations, and identify lessons learnt, and good practices that can and should be replicated.
