Overview
This evaluation aims to assist UNCDF and its partners to understand the relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, likely impact and sustainability of the programme; to capture good practice and lessons from the findings, and to inform both the remaining implementation of the programme, and UNCDF FIPA’s evolving strategy. The assessment covers MAP activities from programme approval in early 2014 up to end June 2019. The approach is based on the Programme’s Theory of Change, assessing key stages of the results chain and testing the assumptions, emphasizing gender and equality aspects.
We apply mixed methods to analyse MAP’s process of intervention and performance against targets, with contribution analysis around the results, recognising that the complexity of market systems and engagement of different players makes it seldom feasible to attribute change to a single programme or intervention.
