This report presents the results of the final evaluation of the Programme. Recommendations and lessons have been formulated with a view to informing future initiatives on food security and nutrition in Cambodia, Southeast Asia and beyond. The evaluation is underpinned by the United Nations Evaluation Group Norms and Standards for Evaluation in the UN System as well as by the OECD DAC evaluation criteria.
The evaluation, which is summative in character, was aimed at demonstrating accountability as well as at distilling good practices and lessons learned that could be useful to other development interventions at national and international level. The evaluation is also intended to feed into the learning of the global food security and nutrition window of the MDG Fund. The evaluation focused, particularly, in Kampong Speu and Svay Rieng, the two provinces where the sub-national activities were implemented. It covered the period 2010 to mid-2013.
Users of the evaluation include Government stakeholders such as the Council for Agricultural and Rural Development (CARD), Ministry of Health (MOH), Ministry of Labour and Vocational Training, Ministry of Agriculture, Forestry and Fisheries, and the Ministry of Planning; as well as the Joint Programme participating UN agencies: UNICEF, WHO, FAO, WFP, ILO and UNESCO. The MDG Fund Secretariat intends to use the evaluation as an input to a meta-evaluation of the Children, Food Security and Nutrition thematic window. The evaluation is to be disseminated in order to advocate for sustainability and replication, as well as scaling-up.
