In 2008 the Government of Mozambique, UNICEF and the Government of the
Netherlands
agreed to an impact assessment at mid-term and end of the Government of
Mozambique/
UNICEF Water supply, Sanitation and Hygiene programme - the One Million

supply and
sanitation goes to UNICEF programmes. The One Million Initiative is the largest
Netherlands
supported programme. Programme implementation started in September 2006 and
will end
in December 2013. The current report is on the mid-term impact assessment.
The impact evaluation is jointly executed by the Policy and Operations
Evaluation
Department (IOB) of the Netherlands Ministry of Foreign Affairs, Ms.
R.Tesselaar and the
central Evaluation Department of UNICEF, Mr. S. Bickel, with major support of
the water
supply and sanitation team of the UNICEF Mozambique Office and the Government of
Mozambique water sector authorities. Technical services for evaluation design,
data
collection and analysis have been provided by Professors J.W. Gunning and C.
Elbers of the
Amsterdam Institute for International Development, a research team of WE
Consultant
based in Maputo, and freelance consultants Dr. S. Turner and Mr. B. Matabire.

UNICEF
and the Government of Mozambique, which aims at accelerating the achievement of
