Logical Model. Critical Assumptions P4EG’s success in achieving the intended results assumes that private and public sector counterparts and representatives are willing and committed to engaging in P4EG activities. To that end, Activity indicators and targets have been selected based on the following assumptions about the national environment: • Government of North Macedonia macroeconomic and microeconomic policies and priorities remain stable and in line with the USG interest, particularly the goals of the Activity; • Activity participants and partners are willing to collaborate and comply with USAID data and information requirements for reporting; • Absence of socio-political instabilities, including national and regional scenarios; • Absence of extreme natural and economic shocks. 2 COLLABORATING, LEARNING, AND ADAPTING The Collaborating, Learning and Adapting (CLA)1 approach for P4EG reflects the strategy of USAID North Macedonia to xxxxxx collaboration between USAID and its Macedonian partners to enable adaptive approaches to achieve its objectives, informed by ongoing systems and contextual analysis. The Activity will continually assess the effectiveness of activities and interventions to evaluate whether those interventions are succeeding, apply lessons learned and adapt the work plan, methodologies, and approaches appropriately. Through a proactive CLA approach, P4EG actively supports collaborating with both internal and external stakeholders to understand and provide data for their information needs. The XXX Manager will work with the principal stakeholders of the Project to identify the core principles that will guide the data collection and dissemination: 1) participation of the internal and external partners in articulating the information needs to inform Project implementation; 2) sharing the information collected on a regular basis through workshops and meetings, as well as special CLA events; and 3) active discussions of changes based on the data about the way in which activities could be improved. P4EG staff will share the information quarterly with USAID and invite USAID staff to participate in the dialogue with partners, while at the same time participate in USAID Partner meetings and other info and lessons learned sessions. P4EG will also take part in USAID Partner meetings as well as other information and lesson-learned sessions.
