KRC 7 : Birth Registration
Overview
Recognising the magnitude and complexity of challenges standing in the way of children’s’ rights and their effect on the burden and prevalence of key deprivations in West and Central Africa region, considered alongside the heightened ambitions attached to the sustainable development agenda 2030, necessitate new ways of doing business to accelerate progress, the UNICEF Regional Office defined a series of Key Results for Children.
As part of the Mid-Term Review of the Key Results for Children, this multi-country evaluation will review the implementation of initiatives to increase Birth Registration (BR) rates as one of the Key Results for Children (KRCs) in West and Central Africa Region (WCAR) as a basic human right as defined in the Child Rights Convention Art.7 – Right to name and nationality, and Art.8 – Right to identity as a provision and as a means to meet child protection outcomes including the right to basic services. Not only is birth registration a fundamental human right, it also helps ensure that children’s other rights are upheld – like the right to protection from violence, and access to essential social services, health care and justice.
The Objectives of the Evaluation are:
1. To determine the relevance, efficiency, coherence, effectiveness, impact and sustainability of the UNICEF supported strategies that aim at improving birth registration rates in the region .
2. To identify lessons learned about what worked and did not work about the acceleration strategies of the regional birth registration programme, as a stand-alone programme but also with respect to multi-sectoral convergence, including unexpected outcomes (positive and negative);
3. To identify the extent to which innovations and new technologies were leveraged through new or existing partnerships (private sector, NGOs) and have contributed to the results of KRC#7;
4. To formulate key recommendations on how to improve the implementation processes and performance of the regiona
