As specified by the Terms of Reference of the present evaluation, UNICEF
decided to evaluate its specific contribution to the reform of the juvenile
justice system in the selected countries (i.e. Montenegro, Romania, Serbia, and
Tajikistan) in order to:
- Assess soundness and impact of current support and to fine-tune UNICEF’s
strategic support to the juvenile justice system reform. The initiative is
connected to the Medium Term Review in 2007 (in UNICEF 5-years long programme
cycle this is the opportunity for making changes and corrections to the country
programme strategy). Main users are UNICEF country- and regional offices;
- To extract good practices and lessons learned as an input to strategic
approach in other countries across CEE/CIS. Main users are UNICEF country- and
regional offices;
- Provide input to the UNICEF Executive Board evaluation review in 2007.
- Provide current donors to with information on impact of their specific
support to UNICEF and use lessons learned for further fundraising in the same
field.
The specific objectives of the evaluation is two fold:
1. To provide feedback to UNICEF country offices on the soundness (defined as
relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, sustainability) and impact of their
approach in the area of juvenile justice in order to:
o Reveal gaps in their approaches
o Reveal good practices in their approaches
2. Based on the experience in the four countries, to extract general lessons
learned and trends in performance of UNICEF in the CEE/CIS region related to
the enhancement of juvenile justice system reform.
The scope of evaluation has differed in each country following the elements of
strategic approach and the objectives of their projects.
