The purpose of the IAHE was two-fold. Firstly, it was to provide an independent assessment of the extent to which planned and collective objectives set in the 2014 Strategic Response Plan (SRP) to respond to the needs of affected people were met. In so far as possible, those set out in the 2015 SRP were also assessed. Secondly, the evaluation aimed to assess the extent to which response mechanisms, including the Humanitarian Programme Cycle and other key pillars of the Transformative Agenda successfully supported the response, and recommend concrete actions. The IAHE aimed to:
■ Assess to what extent the collective response to the crisis met the objectives of the 2014 SRP and the 2015 SRP, and how gaps and challenges were addressed;
■ Assess how effectively humanitarian needs were identified and prioritized, including the identification of associated coordinated needs assessments processes, and to what extent the collective response adequately met those needs;
■ Capture lessons learned and best practices in order to enable collective learning from the humanitarian response, including regional coordination, protection issues and strategies; and,
■ Provide actionable recommendations at both policy and operational level on how collective response mechanisms might be strengthened, particularly in light of challenges in the field, including access, protection and security challenges.
