Résume bref du projet:

Following a year of thorough preparation, well trained local administrators plan to collect information on the state and potential of cultural industries in the 21 regions of Mongolia (plus the capital) guided by the project team. The findings would be edited in a booklet and discussed at a one day national conference.

1. PERTINENCE ET ADÉQUATION DU PROJET AUX OBJECTIFS STRATÉGIQUES ET DOMAINES D'INTERVENTION DU FIDC

1.1 Veuillez décrire comment les objectifs et impacts/ bénéfices à long terme du projet correspondent à, au moins, l’un des objectifs stratégiques du FIDC et ses effets escomptés associés. :

The objectives are in line with the IFCD philosophy.

1.2 Comment les objectifs de cette proposition répondent-ils aux besoins et priorités actuels du pays/ de la région en termes de politiques culturelles et/ou d’industries culturelles ? :

Enhancing the cultural industries is an implicit policy aim in the country which the project wants to turn tangible and an explicit priority.

1.3 Dans quelle mesure les objectifs du projet sont-ils spécifiques et mesurables ?:

A methods manual, an intensive training course, a report that summarizes the regional mapping, a one day conference and a final report are milestone deliverables to attest the progress of the work.

1.4 Dans quelle mesure le projet contribue-t-il à la promotion de l’égalité des genres, à l’autonomisation des jeunes, à la coopération Sud-Sud et Nord-Sud-Sud et/ou à la participation de divers groupes sociaux dans le cadre des domaines d’intervention du FIDC ? :

The terms and approach reflect concepts and methods developed in the global North, which are planned to be applied to the conditions of a less developed country.

Score:

2. FAISABILITÉ DU PROJET, AINSI QUE LA PERTINENCE ET L'EFFICACITÉ DE SES MODALITÉS D'EXÉCUTION

2.1 Quels éléments démontrent la capacité organisationnelle du demandeur (principales activités de l’institution/organisation) et sa compétence (qualifications et expérience du personnel) à mettre en œuvre le plan de travail et à gérer le budget ?:

Despite scarce online information about the current activity of the applicant organization, indirect and past references suggest that it is fully capable to implement the project. https://en.unesco.org/creativity/news/creative-industry-development-takes-next-step-mongolia + https://en.unesco.org/creativity/sites/creativity/files/agenda_meeting_mongolia.pdf

2.2 Dans quelle mesure les activités répondent-elles aux questions pertinentes ? Veuillez expliquer comment la méthodologie est appropriée à la réalisation des objectifs ? :

A great asset is the careful preparation drawing from various sources, and the direct link between learned specialists and the local administrators in charge. It is very important that in each region up to 40 various stakeholders will be involved – although this is difficult to decipher from the proposal. These groups should get a role in the preparatory months as well. There is little indication whether beyond cataloging the mapping would include analysis of the swot kind. Also if beyond abstraction the local specificities would be sufficiently identified. Other than editing a report, its communication to decision makers and to the general public could be further elaborated. Connecting to the international professional community is an important point: instead of an unidentified event in the end, an open option to attend a relevant event in the preparatory phase would be more important.

2.3 Dans quelle mesure le calendrier est-il réaliste et cohérent avec les activités ?:

Spending the entire 2019 on preparing the empirical phase may appear too long, although this could be the real strength of the project – if the time was used to consulting additional groups of stakeholders as well. The same is true about the second year, especially because due to the moderately calculated personal fees the many months do not inflate the budget.

2.4 Les bénéficiaires directs et indirects du projet ont-ils été clairement identifiés ? Dans quelle mesure les activités sont-elles pertinentes pour les bénéficiaires ciblés et répondent-elles à leurs besoins ? :

It is implicitly taken for granted that the recommended strategies will be “bought” by the authorities. Even if similar to earlier practice, there is no guarantee for such breakthrough, public decision makers are rightly the main target group. Which can turn into a weakness, neglecting the other factors of the success of cultural industries: businesses, media, creators’ communities, promoters, international bodies and the local public at large. In one way, naming the 21 local administrators is waterproof targeting.

Score:

3. GESTION ET RESPONSABILITÉ FINANCIÈRES

3.1 Does the budget provide for adequate resources (salaries, fees, equipment, travel, communication, etc.) necessary for success of the project? If the budget has been overestimated or underestimated, please explain how.:

As pointed out above, the 24 months may appear comfortably long but time does not exert an unnecessary burden on the budget due to moderate unit costs. Expensive international flights of the foreign expert and the planned conference participation are a natural given in Mongolia.

3.2 What proportion of the budget is allocated to project activities versus overhead costs? Does the budget seem adequate and overhead costs estimated in compliance with the limit to a maximum of 30% of the total project budget?:

The necessary technical expenses, in addition to the strict understanding of overhead, are carefully planned and budgeted.

3.3 La proposition de projet indique-t-elle des contributions financières supplémentaires au projet, telles que des co-financements et/ou de l’auto-financement ? :

A few items in the current property of the applicant are included as a way of sharing and saving.

3.4 Quelles sont les actions prévues pour assurer la responsabilité financière (par exemple, l’implication d’un directeur financier) ? :

The applying organization claims to have the necessary human resources.

Score :

4. EFFICACITÉ DES RÉSULTATS ET LIVRABLES DU PROJET

4.1 Les résultats et/ou livrables du projet sont-ils concrets, mesurables et réalistes ? Dans quelle mesure permettront-ils d’atteindre les objectifs du projet?:

The essence of the project is the fieldwork. The quality of its findings would determine the success in terms of the objectives of the project. Nevertheless the way these findings are turned into policy recommendations and how they are communicated are also vital.

4.2 Dans quelle mesure les activités principales et le budget sont-ils pertinents et adaptés à la réalisation des résultats et/ou livrables énoncés ?:

The activities and the budget are adequate to the objectives except for the communication aspect which needs to be strengthened within the confines of the actual budget.

4.3 Dans quelle mesure est-il prévu que ce projet ait un impact ou des bénéfices à long terme sur les politiques culturelles et/ou les industries culturelles du pays/ de la région ?:

Such an extensive operation must have an impact on the environment of cultural industries. Especially on the level of the 21 regions can basic and lasting benefits be expected from the mapping exercise and its discussion with well selected audience.

4.4 To what extent does the project demonstrate potential for structural change (for example: changes in the policy environment; far-reaching changes in public and professional organizational structures; and changes in the way government and regulatory authorities do business)?:

The impact on the political and legislative environment is little predictable. Nevertheless it would be difficult to conceive alternative schemes of influencing the decision makers. Yet if the project team is conscious that there are other factors of structural change than the government, chances of change are increased.

Score:

5. DURABILITÉ

5.1 To what extent are contractors and partners involved in the implementation of the project’s activities? Has the role of each contractor and/or partner been clearly described?:

Besides the involvement of a foreign expert at a critical phase, no substantial cooperation is indicated with external forces. The direct participation of regional officers implies close coordination with the relevant authorities.

5.2 Comment le projet se rattache-t-il et/ou complète-t-il le travail déjà en cours dans le pays/la région en termes de politiques et/ou d’industries culturelles ? :

The project is a natural attempt to catalyze national processes that have lost momentum.

5.3 Quelles mesures/démarches sont proposées afin d’assurer une réponse aux impacts/bénéfices à long terme du projet?:

The proposal is confident about the power of the knowledge acquired during the activities.

5.4 Quelles mesures/démarches sont proposées pour le suivi du projet avec ses bénéficiaires après son achèvement ? :

The intentions of the applicant to maintain consultations and hold annual meetings are serious but no guarantee is given.

Score:

Évaluation globale:

This is a carefully constructed extensive project to identify the chances of cultural industries across the country, including intensive phases at key points. The most important being the coordinated exploration of the potential in 21 regions. If the traps of mechanical uniform solutions are avoided and realistic responses are given to specific challenges this project can substantially change the environment of the cultural industries across the country.

Résume bref du projet:

The project is aimed at building capacity in Mongolia for policy making to promote the cultural industries through a package of activities including: a manual for policy making etc; training for policy-makers, experts etc; a mapping/assessment; developing policy and strategies; a national forum and networking; and presentations by researchers in international conferences.

1. PERTINENCE ET ADÉQUATION DU PROJET AUX OBJECTIFS STRATÉGIQUES ET DOMAINES D'INTERVENTION DU FIDC

The project is aligned with ER 1.1 and 3.1

1.2 Comment les objectifs de cette proposition répondent-ils aux besoins et priorités actuels du pays/ de la région en termes de politiques culturelles et/ou d’industries culturelles ? :

There have been major political, social and structural shifts in Mongolia since 1990 but the approach to cultural policy making and implementation has not changed and there is a lack of capacity and knowledge with regard to the cultural industries. Some policies have ben created but implementation is apparently insufficient. The project will aid reform.

1.3 Dans quelle mesure les objectifs du projet sont-ils spécifiques et mesurables ?:

The objectives are fairly high level and it would be hard to accurately measure impact. However, the activities can be assessed in terms of reports and publications, evaluation of people trained etc and if successful, should lead to achieving the objectives.

The application notes that principles of gender equity and youth participation will be followed. It is anticipated that a wide group of participants will be impacted via the national forum.

Overheads are about 15% of total costs ($18k out of $105k). The main cost is Salaries at about 35%

3.3 La proposition de projet indique-t-elle des contributions financières supplémentaires au projet, telles que des co-financements et/ou de l’auto-financement ? :

To a reasonable extent. It would appear that there is a need to make some significant impacts on historic ways of doing things but the project aims at raising awareness of the value of the cultural industries and policy making to assist the sector nationally.

To a good extent. The project is focused on research, mapping, information sharing, training etc and on directly impacting on government policy makers in order to create new opportunities for the sector and create new networks.

Résumé de l'évaluation:

This project, led by the NGO Creative Industries Innovative Centre (CIIC), aims to complement national Mongolian cultural policy making by collecting data and publishing a methodology manual on the cultural creative industries in Mongolia, which will then be used as a training programme for local cultural administrators in different parts of the country. This will be followed by a report including cultural mapping and a strategy for local cultural development, and the project will end with a national forum on the situation of the cultural industries in Mongolia. If successful, this will lead to raising awareness on the value of cultural industries and support further national policy making affecting the long-term change in their development across the country. One of the project’s main assets is the well-planned coordination of research and implementation throughout the country’s 21 regions. In general, the project methodology was approved by the evaluators with just a few questions raised, namely a lack of information on how the report would be communicated to decision makers, businesses media, creator’s communities, promoters, international bodies and the general public. The budget seems relevant except for a few inconsistencies which should be addressed before the project’s inception: the salaries for the permanent staff seems to be accounted for in the budget for a total of only 80 days for the project manager and 50 for the other members, while the project’s time frame is 24 months; and the description of financial accountability is somewhat vague and mention should be made of an external or final audit.
