Evaluation of Mauritania Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Country Strategic Plan 2019-2023

none
The evaluation was commissioned by the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ independent Office of Evaluation to provide evaluative evidence for accountability and learning to inform the design of the next CSP in Mauritania

It covers Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ activities implemented between 2018 and mid-2021 including Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¡¯s strategic positioning, its effectiveness in contributing to strategic outcomes, the efficiency of CSP implementation and factors explaining Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¡¯s performance.

The evaluation concluded that:

  • Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ remained a key humanitarian actor in the country, and the CSP framework facilitated its strategic positioning in social protection and resilience, although visibility at Government level is still limited.
  • In refugee assistance, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ relied on the triple nexus approach developed with partners to combine humanitarian efforts with sustainable solutions, but the latter are constrained by the agro-ecological and socio-economic context.
  • Within the integrated resilience package, full synergy between the different activities is yet to be achieved, as well as ownership of the approach at the national level.
  • The consideration of cross-cutting issues has progressed, with room for further improvements on gender, environment and accountability to affected populations.
  • Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ has demonstrated a strong capacity for adaptation and flexibility, including during the COVID-19 crisis.
  • Success factors included internal reorganizations, increased funding levels, and overall quality of monitoring, although difficulties persist with measuring effects of longer-terms approaches.
