Lessons Learned from Moving the Haitian Out-Of-School Youth Livelihood Initiative (IDEJEN) Beyond the Pilot Phase

By Melanie Beauvy, Ron Israel, Sarah Johnson, and Marie Guerda Prévilon

This report is part of a series of publications summarizing what is being learned “on the ground” from projects in more than a dozen countries, and is the product of the pilot phase of the first EQUIP3 Associate Award, the Haitian Out-of-School Youth Livelihood Initiative (IDEJEN). The report summarizes the lessons learned and makes recommendations for the IDEJEN project as it moved from a pilot phase with 650 youth to a large-scale national project serving 13,000 youth. The report examines the following aspects of the project: developing a knowledge base, nonformal basic education, life skills, technical/vocational training, livelihood accompaniment, capacity-building of local organizations, monitoring and evaluation, and partnerships.
