Impact Feasibility Assessment for the Global Programme to End Child Marriage (EA)
Overview
The Global Program to End Child Marriage (GPECM) is a 15-year joint program led and implemented by the United Nations Population Fund (UNFPA) and the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) over the period 2016-2030. Now in Phase II (2020-2023), the GPECM aims to accelerate actions to end child marriage by enhancing scalable investments, including strengthening systems, mobilizing communities, and empowering girls, as well as improving data and evidence on what works. An evaluation of the Phase I program highlighted the insufficient efforts in measuring and documenting results of programming, emphasizing the critical role of evaluation in guiding future investments (UNICEF, 2019).
To catalyze and prioritize high-quality evaluations in the GPECM, the Evaluation Offices of UNICEF and UNFPA commissioned an independent assessment of impact feasibility opportunities and limitations for generating impact level evidence as part of the GPECM.2 Rigorous impact evaluation with complementary methodologies can unpack: if interventions worked (and by how much?), for whom, why and at what cost? Thus, investing in a key portfolio of evaluations in the GPECM directly contributes towards the GPECM goal of ending child marriage, through future “smart investment.”
