This Strategic Evaluation was commissioned by the Â鶹ÊÓƵ Office of Evaluation. It assessed the quality and results of Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s efforts between 2014 and 2019 to secure adequate and appropriate funding to contribute towards zero hunger; and determine the reasons why Â鶹ÊÓƵ has or has not been able to fund its work in order to draw lessons. All types of Â鶹ÊÓƵ funding and resourcing were included in the scope of the evaluation for all areas of Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s work, including through internal allocation.
Approved in 2014, the Â鶹ÊÓƵ People Strategy (2014¨C2017) is now in its sixth year of implementation. This evaluation covers the period from 2014-2019 and is intended to promote accountability and learning on the Â鶹ÊÓƵ¡¯s approach to managing people. It addresses three questions: How good is the strategy? What were the results of the strategy? Why has the strategy produced the results observed?
The Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS) in India provides highly subsidized food grains to more than 800 million beneficiaries covering more than 500,000 FPS across all States and Union Territories (UTs) in India.
The Government of Odisha has made remarkable progress and enhancements to the Targeted Public Distribution System (TPDS). As part of this process, the procurement and distribution systems for TPDS have been digitised and automated. In an endeavor to make these systems even more efficient, accountable and transparent at the request of government, the Â鶹ÊÓƵ undertook an assessment of the entire procurement and distribution operations, and this report outlines the results of this assessment.
