Evaluability Assessment of UNICEF Sierra Leone Country Programme (2020-2023)
Overview
The vision of the 2020-2023 Country Programme (CP) of Cooperation between the Government of Sierra Leone and UNICEF, currently in its first year of implementation, is that “more children and women in Sierra Leone, particularly the most deprived, will have increased access to inclusive quality health, nutrition, WASH, education and child and social protection services”. The Country Programme contributes to the achievement of the Government of Sierra Leone’s Medium-Term National Development Plan 2020-2023 and a plurality of Sustainable Development Goals, and is aligned to the UNICEF Strategic Plan; UNICEF Gender Action Plan 2018-2021 and Outcomes 1-4 of the United Nations Sustainable Development Cooperation Framework (UNSDCF) Sierra Leone 2020-2023.
The purpose of the Evaluability Assessment is to improve the quality of the ongoing Country Programme implementation based on (i) an in-depth review of the CP logic; (ii) a careful assessment of the validity of the CP Theory of Change; and (iii) a diagnostic measuring the availability of data pertaining to key CP results and processes.
It is also expected that the participatory approach used during this exercise will help strengthen the links amongst the 5 CP outcome areas due to a shared understanding of the CP results and programme logic amongst the staff (both UNICEF and in-country partners) involved in their management and implementation.
The EA final recommendations are expected to contribute to the strengthening of the CP coherence and measurability, inform the adaptation/adjustment of the CP Theory of Change (ToC) to the operating environment and context; as well as the strengthening of the monitoring and evaluation (M&E) framework. Such adaptations are crucial given that there have been significant changes to the operating environment and context, and to the programmatic priorities of both the Government of Sierra Leone and UNICEF, as a result of the COVID-19 crisis.
