involved in the project with civil society and other stakeholders in support of the

Plan
Monitoring and Evaluation:
- A continuous monitoring system will be implemented as part of project activities as indicated above
- Regular reviews and evaluation will be undertaken at four month intervals
- Monitoring and evaluation reports will be shared with donors and partners in a timely
manner.
Implementation:
There are two possibilities for staffing envisioned:
1. A position could be contracted full time for 2 years with the responsibility of implementing the areas of work and to organize and undertake the activities outlined above under the oversight of Health and Policy.
2. An independent consultant could be hired to work in partnership with the Health and Policy Team to organize and undertake the activities outlined above.
These two possibilities would depend upon the preference of funders, although depending on the method may have some effect on the sustainability of the work.
Partners:
We are responsible for developing and implementing this project. Support and guidance continues to be provided by colleagues at other INGOs including GOI (Health District Office/Subdistrict). Additional indigenous partners may be sought to develop specific activities.
Sustainability:
Many of the projects outlined in this plan are concrete and catalytic in that they can be considered both finite and yet potentially could spark additional work in their respective areas. The completion of these projects would encourage additional activities as well as build the capacity of health policy makers in integrating indigenous health and human rights into the work to strengthen health systems.
Reporting:
Reporting schedules and content would be determined and tailored with funders to ensure that appropriate information to meet their needs are provided.
