Evaluation of the UNICEF L3 response in Northern Ethiopia
Overview
On 10 May 2021, the UNICEF Executive Director approved the activation of the UNICEF Corporate Emergency Level 3 Scale-up Procedure (CEAP) for Northern Ethiopia. The L3 was declared for an initial period of 6 months, i.e., until 10 November 2021. The UNICEF Scale-up was extended for a ‘sustained phase’ until 12 November 2022, given the ‘significant and continued deterioration of the humanitarian situation’ in the country and, subsequently, until May 2023.
The evaluation of UNICEF’s L3 response in Northern Ethiopia has both an accountability and learning purpose. It fulfils the requirement of the UNICEF Evaluation Policy whereby all L3 emergencies must be evaluated, and it is also expected to help the UNICEF Ethiopia Country Office, the regional and HQ levels, to generate learning to support programming strategy and operational planning, while also more directly shaping the on-going response in Northern Ethiopia. The evaluation is additionally expected to capture learning and make actionable recommendations to inform UNICEF efforts across future L3 emergencies (for instance, with respect to policies, guidance, and systems).
The general objective of this evaluation is to provide a comprehensive assessment of UNICEF’s overall response in Northern Ethiopia since the L3 activation in 2021, measured against its own mandate, corporate commitments, stated objectives and standard evaluation criteria, including: relevance/appropriateness, effectiveness, connectedness, coverage, and coordination.
The temporal scope of the evaluation spans from May 2021 until the time of data collection. Importantly, despite the extension of the L3 activation in May 2022, this evaluation does not evaluate the current drought response taking place in Ethiopia (a separate evaluation will cover that topic).
