United Nations Development Account Project 1213AR: Strengthening capacities of African countries in boosting intra-African trade through support for establishing the African Continental Free Trade Area
Agency
United Nations Conference on Trade and Development

Overview

The overall goal of the project is to foster and boost intra-African trade expansion, leading to sustained economic growth and inclusive development through dedicated support to the establishment of the CFTA, and thereby facilitating a process of inclusive structural transformation of African countries. The two expected accomplishments of the project are summarised as 1: Enhanced knowledge among policy-makers, experts and private sector on requisite policies and measures for establishing the CFTA; and 2: Increased capacity of policy-makers, experts and private sector to adopt and implement policies and measures to promote establishment of the CFTA. UNCTAD commissioned an independent evaluation of the project in October 2016, with the objective to ensure ownership, result-based orientation, cost-effectiveness, and quality of UNCTAD assistance. The evaluation was conducted by an Independent Evaluator between November 2016 and February 2017. The Evaluation consisted of a desk review (19 Documents were consulted) followed by field interviews in Addis Ababa (28 Nov - 01 Dec 2016) during the Africa Trade Week with 20 people from various organizations who were involved in the project’s activities. An online survey using Survey Monkey was carried out using a short questionnaire (10 questions - both in English and French) which was sent to 128 participants.
