Real-Time Evaluation (RTE) of the UNICEF’s response to the Haiti 2021 earthquake
Overview
UNICEF’s LACRO is proposing a real-time evaluation (RTE) of UNICEF’s response to Haiti’s 2021 earth quake to generate timely feedback and learning on key elements of its response, while complying with UNICEF’s Evaluation policy requirements.3 Given that this is a rapid-onset emergency, the value of rapidly-available evidence-based findings, and the support they can provide in informing the upcoming transition to the recovery phase, makes a strong case for an RTE of the response to Haiti earthquake to be conducted at this point in time.
Purpose
The RTE of UNICEF’s response to Haiti earthquake is expected to have a strong learning purpose on several fronts: i) providing iterative feedback loops, both operationally and programmatically, into the initial phase of UNICEF’s response to the crisis; ii) informing the direction of ongoing recovery efforts and planning of forthcoming response phases; iii) identifying lessons to strengthen resilience and the future preparedness levels of UNICEF Country Office (CO) and Government as well as key partners; and iv) supporting the learning of Regional Office (RO) and HQ vis-a’-vis the activation of emergency procedures in the future. In this sense the evaluation is expected to yield learning that will be useful and applicable not only the CO level but also with the national as well as the RO level. The RTE will finally strengthen UNICEF’s accountability towards affected populations, as well as partners and stakeholders supporting the response at large, and should be thus conceived as an intrinsic component of the humanitarian response itself.
In line with this purpose, the RTE is expected to generate actionable recommendations on how to strengthen ongoing recovery efforts from Haiti earthquake and how to improve future preparedness, response and planning for recovery after sudden onset emergencies in Haiti.
