The Support to Rural Entrepreneurship, Investment and Trade in Papua New Guinea (EU-STREIT PNG) is a large EU-funded UN Joint Programme that aims to foster rural development in the two Sepik provinces of Papua New Guinea. It adopts a holistic approach that integrates the development of three agrofishery value chains with enabling services and infrastructure in related sectors.
The evaluation has been commissioned by the EU Delegation to Papua New Guinea. It provides an overall independent assessment of the performance of the programme and identifies lessons learned, conclusions, and recommendations. The evaluation adopts a theory-based approach using mixed methods, and it covers all programme activities over the entire implementation period.

Support will be provided to Ukrainian Vocational Education and Training (VET) providers to strengthen their capacity to participate in Erasmus+ programmes. All services are to be delivered remotely between June 2025 and May 2026, structured under two main work packages.
Work Package 1: International Engagement through Erasmus+
A total of 40 VET providers will be engaged, with 25 selected for in-depth support. A joint planning workshop will be conducted with the National Erasmus+ Office–Ukraine and GIZ to define the training programme. Initial online sessions will be held to introduce Erasmus+ opportunities, followed by targeted training for the selected providers on project development and application processes. Partnerships with institutions in EU Programme countries will be facilitated, and individual support will be provided throughout the proposal preparation and submission phases. At least 18 Erasmus+ project applications are expected. All sessions will be fully organized and documented, including logistical coordination and reporting.
Work Package 2: Handbook Development
A bilingual handbook (Ukrainian and English) will be created to guide VET providers in drafting Erasmus+ project proposals. The handbook will include step-by-step instructions, visual aids, and digital navigation features, ensuring accessibility across devices. Its content will be tested during the application phase, revised accordingly, and submitted for approval by GIZ and the National Erasmus+ Office–Ukraine.

The evaluation of the Danish Energy Partnership Programmes (DEPP) assesses over a decade of Denmark’s government-to-government cooperation on green energy transition. Covering 2012–2024, it examines partnerships in countries such as China, India, South Africa, Vietnam, and Mexico. The study reviews DEPP’s contributions to renewable energy integration, energy efficiency, long-term planning, and capacity strengthening, while identifying lessons for future programming. Applying OECD-DAC criteria, the evaluation aims to document results, enhance accountability, and generate actionable recommendations to inform Denmark’s continued role as a trusted partner in advancing global climate and energy goals.

The monitoring and evaluation technical services to be mobilized under the present multi-sector action aim to continue assessing the extent to which the strategic objectives of the EUTF are being achieved. The contract builds on the existing Monitoring and Evaluation (hereafter M&E) system put in place by the Fund in December 2016 and serves to complement the regular M&E activities carried out by the EUTF operational team at headquarters as well as the internal monitoring conducted by EUTF local officers, at country level.
In particular, the contract serves:
I. To provide evidence-based knowledge on progresses achieved by EU Trust Fund in Response to the Syrian Crisis (EUTF Syria) financed projects, and to inform on their management, through regular and ad-hoc Results Oriented Monitoring (ROM);
II. To measure the effectiveness of EUTF actions, through centralized data collection and analysis, based on disaggregated quarterly Results Reporting;
III. To evaluate the sustainability, efficiency and effectiveness of EUTF-funded programmes at thematic and geographic level and to assess potential prospects of impact, through portfolio evaluations.
