Enter into a formal memorandum of understanding (MOU) with each of the four selected pilot institutions that would be tailored to their respective circumstances and particular needs. 2.4. Risks and Mitigation Strategies In the course of the project implementation, the following risks may be envisaged: Difficulties to organize continuous training for a busy judiciary. A key mitigation measure to counter such is to ensure having the full engagement and endorsement of the judicial training institute and/or the relevant authorities at all phases of the project; Conditions in a selected pilot country may impede the project, in which case due discussions should be pursued. Should such discussions be unsuccessful, the project in the country may be suspended or postponed; The use of Information and Communication Technology (ICTs) may face limitations that exist in developing and least developed countries, such as absence or low-speed Internet. A key mitigation measure to counter this high risk would be to ensure the print-publishing of the Judges IP Toolkit. 3. REVIEW AND EVALUATION 3.1. Project Review Schedule (a) Each component of the project, as outlined in 2.3 above, will be regularly monitored for progress against agreed milestones/time table and identification and elimination/mitigation of known and emerging risks and use of emerging opportunities for synergies to improve cost-effectiveness and quality of its components/deliverables. (b) A yearly (or mid-term) progress cum self-evaluation report will be presented for the consideration of the CDIP.
