The final evaluation of the project "Boosting Rural and Rurban Economy in Times of Crisis and Beyond" (BOOST) was commissioned by WFP Nicaragua. BOOST ran from 2018 to 2024 and aimed to promote sustainable and resilient agri-food systems in five departments and one autonomous region of Nicaragua. The European Union was the main donor of the project.
The evaluation provided an independent assessment of all project activities in the entire implementation period of BOOST. It adopted a theory-based approach using the Qualitative Impact Assessment Protocol (QuIP). Data were collected during a two-week field mission and remotely, including interviews with national and local key informants, focus group discussions with beneficiaries, field visits, a comprehensive document review, and analysis of existing M&E data.

This assignment aims to provide the mid-term evaluation of the projects Support to the Global Covenant of Mayors for Climate (PI/2020/418-375), Support to the Global Covenant of Mayor for climate and energy in the Americas (PI/2020/420-420) and Support to the Global Covenant of Mayors (GCoM) for Climate and Energy in Asia (PI/2020/420-620).
