The evaluation was commissioned by the Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ Office of Evaluation to provide evidence for accountability and learning, and to inform the design of the next country strategic plan (CSP) for Haiti.

The evaluation covered all Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ activities implemented between January 2018 and July 2022 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. 

It concluded that:

  • Despite the very challenging country context, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ managed to adapt the CSP to the changing context, and assist  large numbers of people in need.
  • The intended shifts from saving lives to changing lives and towards stronger integration of activities were hampered by contextual and funding constraints, keeping Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ focused on emergency assistance.
  • Resilience activities were more difficult to fund, highlighting the need to further convince donors of Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ's full mandate and growing resilience-building capacity.
  • Overall, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ is an effective and trusted partner to the Government, donors, and humanitarian actors. By providing essential services to humanitarian and development actors, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ helped ensure more effective and efficient emergency assistance. However, Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ did not maximize partnerships with UN agencies with long-standing development expertise in Haiti.
  • Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ¡¯s strategy and staff capacity need strengthening to achieve transformative gender results. Humanitarian principles and protection were integrated into Âé¶¹ÊÓÆµ's work, but beneficiary feedback mechanisms remained underutilized.
