The UNICEF Equatorial Guinea Country Office (CO) has therefore commissioned an external formative evaluation of UNICEF’s PMTCT Decentralization Task-Shifting Project, with a double purpose:
1. To provide solid evidence to stakeholders and donors about the progress made in contributing to the elimination of TMTC and the creation of an AIDS-free generation, thanks to the scale-up of the PMTCT programme. In terms of accountability, this evaluation is expected to provide donors (vertical accountability) and expected beneficiaries (horizontal accountability) with accurate information on the extent to which UNICEF’s efforts to scale up PMTCT programme contributed, not only to the elimination of MTCT, but also to the creation of an AIDS-free children generation. With this mind, the evaluation aims to illustrate how the different Programs strategies have evolved over time and what has worked or not worked, and why.
2. To enlighten and contribute to learning regarding how the PMTCT programme has contributed
to the EMTCT and has positioned UNICEF within the HIV-AIDS community (learning purpose).
The objectives of this evaluation are:
- To document the key achievements as well as missed opportunities associated with UNICEF’s engagement to in- country partners in support of improved PMTCT outcomes over the past years;
- To identify lessons learned about strategies and processes that proved particularly effective in promoting PMTCT at the national level;
- To generate recommendations that could contribute to achieve better results, as per the distinct information needs of the different evaluation users.
