UNICEF entered into a long-term agreement with ETC
Netherlands for a series of external evaluations of joint action
programmes on nutrition security, including MYCNSIA in
South Asia and South-East Asia. The mid-term evaluation
(MTE) of MYCNSIA was implemented in 2013 and entailed a
review of the design and implementation process in the fi rst
two years of operation. The aim was to identify enhancing and
limiting factors at regional, national and local levels and to
highlight results that were achieved. The end-term evaluation
(ETE) is intended to meet accountability obligations towards
the donor (EU) and identify best practices and lessons learned
as input for future policymaking and programming on nutrition
security. The main users of the information generated in the
ETE are the implementing partners in the evaluated countries,
UNICEF regional and country offices, and the EU and other
donors that contributed to MYCNSIA.
The Terms of Reference for the ETE build on the evaluation
criteria of the Development Assistance Committee
(DAC) of the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation
and Development (OECD). This external evaluation was
commissioned to do the following:
· Obtain an unbiased assessment of whether policy and
programme inputs have led and/or contributed to the
achievement of the anticipated programme results, such as
outputs, outcomes and impact;
· Examine programme achievements, identify programme
barriers, challenges and study determinants for success;
and
· Provide recommendations based on solid evidence and
lessons learned on how best to improve nutrition security
among women and young children in the South Asia and
South-East Asia sub-regions.
