Due to fact that there is start up meeting gathering various stakeholders has been useful for the implementation of pillars

Need to have a group to implement a pillar instead of one single organisation for the visibility of action and sustainability

It is difficult to involve many people in a research as some need to be done by individual researchers

Lessons learnt

Page 9: Présentation clo bénin grand popo eoa octobre 2016

Carry out research is not only time consumming but also funds consuming. Therefore, there is a need to be more focus on specific reseach activities

When left alone, PIP report lately. The strategy which is working better is to gather them from time to time for the report writing

Progressive involvement of needed actors at the right time
