External Evaluation of Effectiveness of UNICEF Nutrition Accelerated Reduction of Child and Maternal Under-Nutrition in Seven Districts of Sierra Leone
Overview
In April 2016, Global Health Liaisons LLC was contracted by UNICEF/Sierra Leone to evaluate the Irish Aid Funded Nutrition Programme. The purpose of this evaluation was to understand how the nutrition programme in the seven Irish Aid-supported districts worked and determine what worked well, where, why, and under what circumstance(s). It also sought to generate knowledge, as well as identify best practices and lessons learned.
The objectives of the evaluation include:
• Assess the relevance, appropriateness and coherence of the nutrition programme in relation to global, regional and country programme strategies, and in relation to Sierra Leone.
• Assess the effectiveness and efficiency of the nutrition programme in the 7 Irish Aid supported districts in terms of delivering services to infants and young children and in promoting appropriate IYCF behaviours/ practices.
• Assess UNICEF’s leadership, guidance and technical support at all levels and the adequacy of staffing/institutional capacity to respond to the lead role UNICEF is expected to play at the field level for contributing to sustainable and equitable reduction of child undernutrition.
• Assess to what extent is the programme is sustainable in addressing undernutrition in young children with particular attention to the less reached, disadvantaged and vulnerable groups.
• Provide forward looking learning, conclusions and recommendations for strengthening UNICEF’s leadership and advocacy, country programme response and partnerships for reducing child undernutrition in Sierra Leone.
