Description |
The Special Projects Implementation Review Exercise (SPIRE) of UNCDF projects in the Local Development and Inclusive Finance practice areas has three key objectives:
- To ensure UNCDF compliance with the mandatory evaluation requirements specified in its evaluation policy for the period 2009-2010, through an outsourced arrangement which produce high quality evaluations that contain findings and recommendations of value to stakeholders and decision-makers;
- To develop/experiment with cost-effective and rapid methods of undertaking mid-term and final evaluations in order to yield credible, effective, independent evaluations in an efficient manner.
- To connect country programme evaluations with UNCDF’S corporate strategy thereby enabling cross-country comparison and the tracking of progress towards global objectives.
In addition, the SPIRE exercise also aims at contributing to a rethinking of UNCDF’s evaluation policy in relation to accountability requirements, knowledge management potential, results-based management arrangements as well as the role of evaluation in measuring UNCDF’s capacity to leverage its funds and influence policy.
The first phase of the assignment (2010) foresees:
- The development of a methodological and conceptual framework that will combine the need to take into account the specific nature of the individual programmes with the need for cross-comparisons and trend identification between evaluation findings.
- The carrying out eight project evaluations. Of these six fall within the LD practice area (five mid-term and one final evaluation) and will focus on: support for local institutional development and capacity building, local level resources mobilization and public expenditure management; establishment of a "performance-linked" local development funding facility, support for policy development at the national level; and two fall within the Inclusive finance practice area (both mid-term evaluations) and will focus on: financial sector assessments, which diagnose and identify constraints and opportunities to enhance the participation of poor households and micro and small firms in the financial sector, on the development of nationally owned vision, strategy and action plans for inclusive financial sectors, that involve the adoption by the government of a national strategy.
The evaluation teams will assess the extent to which the programmes – through the provision of seed capital, technical support and policy advice - have contributed to the building of stronger local government systems and financial sectors so as to improve the provision of basic services and open access to economic opportunities for the poor.
It is expected that the results of the country evaluations will: i) reinforce the results of country programmes by improving their orientation, linking evaluation with IF/LD design and maintaining and building partnerships with donors and government partners for resource mobilization; and ii) contribute, individually and through comparative analysis and synthesis of findings across countries, to the assessment of their alignment and contribution to the attainment of UNCDF’s strategic objectives . |

Within the framework of this Indicative Programme, a sector policy support programme has been developed with an allocation of € 23M for the government's sector plan for productive development.
“Production with more and better employment”. The purpose of this study was to provide support to the devolved government implementing institution PROBOLIVIA in the operational definition of the components of the sector plan targeted for EC support.
To that end the study has provided the necessary inputs to:
1) prepare an Action Fiche and the Technical and Administrative Provisions of the Financing
Agreement on which to base the financing and implementation of the proposed programme;
2) prepare a complete documentation to allow for the sound implementation of the programme based on good practices.
In particular, the following inputs have been provided:
a) a detailed logical framework in cascade for the various components of the programme;
b) a realistic and justified budget and implementation calendar
c) the definition of implementation responsibilities, including potential inter-institutional relations, also with sub-national levels;
d) an institutional needs assessment in relation to the implementation of the support programme;
e) the definition of target groups of the productive development components;
f) an outline of the functioning of grant funds in line with EC procedures;
g) the nature and scope of register and of business development services, and relation with existing entities;
h) baseline values and target values of the set of indicators, including the applicable EuropeAid
Standard Indicators;
i) a proposal for a result oriented monitoring system, based on existing public and private data sources.
j) a proposal for the incorporation of adequate environmental indicators and criteria, to be used for the monitoring and performance assessment of the SPSP.
Aspects concerning possible negative environmental impacts on the sector itself or on other environmentally sensitive sectors have been considered, as well as the selection of adequate support actions for environmental capacity building/institutional strengthening.
The study was carried out by a team of 2 international experts, both provided by DRN.

Description |
The main objective of the Food Security for Ultra-Poor Programme (FSUP) is to contribute to the reduction of extreme poverty and food insecurity of the most vulnerable women and their dependants, with special attention to the development of their capacities, the establishment of means for income generation and the promotion of household food security. The FSUP calls for the implementation of safety net type initiatives, mainly targeting rural ultra poor women, using successfully tested innovative approaches, and relying on the work of local NGOs (implementing partners).
The overall objective of this Technical Assistance is to provide support to the FSUP in order to maximise its effectiveness, impact and sustainability. A specific Programme Coordination Unit (PCU) has thus been set up, aiming at providing assistance mainly in the fields of programme coordination and M&E. The main tasks of the PCU include: i) to coordinate and monitor the interventions to be implemented under the FSUP; ii) to organise and manage external mid-term reviews and final evaluations of the above interventions; iii) to follow up implementing partners’ annual internal audit recommendations and provide support for their timely implementation; iv) to provide support to the programme partners implementing FSUP, in order to ensure effective and timely implementation and achievement of anticipated results and impact; v) to establish links between the FSUP interventions and other EC food security interventions, so as to maximise the exchange of best practices and lessons learned.
The following results will be achieved through the Technical Assistance's work:
• Effective programme monitoring systems developed and applied, and reporting done timely according to requirements;
• The various FSUP interventions share their experiences and benefit from these exchanges, as well as from exchanges with other similar interventions;
• Mid-term reviews and final evaluation missions take place on a timely basis and produce quality results. Recommendations from such missions are followed up;
• Audit reports recommendations are followed-up;
• Implementing partners are assisted for timely preparation of planning documents and periodic reporting;
• Visibility of EC and FSUP interventions is enhanced, through communication, publications and organization of workshops and events.
The PCU office has been staffed with an expatriate coordinator and a national team consisting of two M&E Specialists, a Financial Specialist, a Visibility & Communication Specialist and an MIS Expert (in addition to an Administrative Assistant and an Office Assistant/Messenger). The inclusion of such a team of national experts (all provided by DRN) is seen as an essential element to guarantee the achievement of the Technical Assistance’s objectives and results. |

Description |
Evaluation of the ROSS programme – phase I. The ROSS programme is a post-emergency programme with a budget of € 15 million aimed at strengthening local development capacities by: i) supporting the rehabilitation of basic infrastructure services, ii) increasing the capacity of local authorities to deliver basic educational and health services; iii) supporting the re-establishment or creation of productive activities through the provision of goods (agricultural goods & tools, livestock, kits for the set-up of individual activities) as well as technical assistance and training. The programme was implemented through 58 projects managed either by Italian NGOs or directly by the ROSS programme structure, in collaboration with local partners and national counterparts.
The evaluation was carried out on two main levels: 1) at programme level: where the team assessed the relevance of the programme as well as the efficiency and effectiveness of the mechanisms and tools put in place, including coordination activities provided by the ROSS programme structure; 2) at project level, where the team concentrated on the assessment of the relevance, efficiency, effectiveness, impact and sustainability of a sample of the specific actions put in place. This has allowed the team to provide findings, conclusions and recommendations that can be used for both the ongoing phase II of the ROSS programme in Lebanon and general recommendations aimed at improving the use of the programme as an instrument to provide development aid during emergency or post-emergency situations.

The overall objective of the mission was to promote deeper economic integration between Egypt and the EU in the area of international trade in goods and services. The specific objectives of the mission were to:
- provide a factual assessment of the ongoing trade related cooperation (EC-Egypt) and identify Egypt’s trade and trade related assistance needs, including the area of industrial policy.
- define a set of concrete proposals for technical assistance intervention (to be financed out of the NIP 2010 or thereafter), taking into account the requests for twinning already put forward by the Ministry of Trade and Innovation (MTI).
The study was divided in two phases:
Phase 1: Review and discussion with the MTI and the European Commission about the needs assessment conducted by the MTI in 2008, and the requests for twinning that submitted by the MTI. This included gathering information on how the needs assessment had been conducted and how the requests had been collected, on the number of stakeholders involved and the relation between the assessment outcomes, the requests for assistance, and ongoing trade and trade-related policies.
Phase 2 : Following the first review phase, the team analyzed in details the institutional and regulatory framework of Egypt’s trade and related sectors and identified specific knowledge and/or institutional gaps to be presented and discussed in their final trade needs assessment report.
The study was carried our by a team of two experts. The industrial policy expert was provided by DRN. |
