Final Evaluation of Partner Project
- Career Category: Consultancies
- Location: Phnom Penh
Objective, Field and User(s) of the Evaluation
Objective:
Accountability:
The DGD requires that the Outcomes they are co-funding are evaluated at the end of action, specifically regarding Impact and Sustainability on the level of the Specific Objective (SO). As with any action coming to a conclusion, another important criterion to prioritize is effectiveness. Other OECD DAC criteria may be addressed on parts of the program, in specific questions, not forgetting the contribution to the Joint Strategic Framework (JSF), to mainstreaming gender and environmental aspects.
Learning:
Beyond its accountability function, the final evaluation offers an opportunity to draw valuable lessons for Uni4Coop. A secondary objective of this call for expressions of interest is to assess issues specific to our Outcome, such as the main drivers and obstacles encountered, or lessons transferable to other projects or contexts.
Primary users:
The final evaluation is a duty of accountability to the DGD, the main donor. The underlying objective is to reflect on partnership relations; the partners of this program will be the privileged users. UNI4COOP and JSF: conclusions and lessons learned will be shared among other ACNGs. The results of the final evaluation will also be shared with other cooperation actors and the general public through the websites of LC and Ucoopia and the DGD website.
Period covered by the evaluation:
The final evaluation will cover the entire duration of the PArTNER project from 2022 to 2026.
Type of evaluation:
This is an external conventional end-of-program evaluation to be carried out in all areas covered by the project.
Global approach
This is an external evaluation. The theme on which this Final Evaluation focuses was retrieved from common interest elements between LC and Ucoopia in Cambodia and at Uni4Coop level.
The Scope of Work (SOW) stated below will be reviewed by the evaluation team and the evaluation steering committee in order to achieve the desired results and objectives at a feasible and measurable level.
