The exercise will contribute to UNICEF’s efforts in supporting the Government of Serbia and MoESTD to further align national policy, legal and institutional framework to international standards through, i.e. improvement of the IE financing.

The exercise will inform development of the most appropriate model of IE financing, that will secure the adequate funding level, funding methods and mechanisms and contribute to education effectiveness, openness, and equity, and will recommend next steps for all financing levels (national, AP, local

and school level).

The final evaluation of the project "Building adaptive capacity to climate change through food security and nutrition actions in vulnerable Afro and indigenous communities in the Colombia-Ecuador border area" (Binational Project) was commissioned by the World Food Programme (WFP) in Colombia and Ecuador. The project was financed by the Adaptation Fund (AF) and implemented from 2018 to 2024 in the two binational river basins of Mira-Mataje and Guaitara-Carchi. It sought to reduce the climate vulnerability of Indigenous Awa and Afro-descendant communities and their ecosystems (promoting food security and nutrition, gender equality, and peace building) and strengthen the capacities of the communities and regional institutions to adapt to climate change.

The evaluation covered the period from 2016 (project design) until April 2024 (six months before project closure) and served the double purpose of accountability and learning. It responded to eight main evaluation questions (which covered all AF evaluation criteria except impact), adopting a theory-based mixed methods approach. The evaluation combined conventional performance assessment (through a comprehensive review of available documents and quantitative M&E data, key informant interviews, and direct observation in the field) with appreciative inquiry workshops and indigenous storytelling in beneficiary communities. The field mission in Colombia and Ecuador lasted more than three weeks.

In addition to the evaluation report, a short video with a summary of evaluation results was produced for dissemination purposes. Both products are available at: https://www.wfp.org/publications/colombia-ecuador-evaluacion-descentralizada-del-proyecto-binacional-de-adaptacion-de

The specific objectives of the action were:

• To monitor the outcomes of each project and their contribution to the objectives of the Programme and to the localization of SDGs
• To promote exchange of experiences and best practices among of the different projects financed by the programme.
• To support the Commission to draw lessons learned and in house knowledge from the partnerships in order to better engage with local authorities.
• To communicate efficiently about the outcomes of programme.

The China-Europe School of Law (CESL) Project was designed to enhance Chinese legal professionals' knowledge of the European legal system, its legislation, best practices, and international and comparative law through the establishment of a China-Europe School of Law.

The objective of this evaluation was to provide the European Union and relevant stakeholders with an independent assessment of the China-Europe School of Law's performance. It focused on how the school met its expected objectives and the factors that influenced these outcomes. Additionally, the evaluation identified key lessons learned, drew conclusions, and provided recommendations to assist decision-makers in improving future interventions.

The specific objectives of this evaluation were:

• To inform the exit strategy of the intervention and ensure the sustainability of its results.
• To assess the feasibility of and propose ideas for achieving a higher level of independence for CESL.
• To draw conclusions and lessons learned that could be replicated in other EU interventions.
• To assess the need for and propose ideas for continued cooperation between the EU and CESL after the project's conclusion.
• To ensure accountability for the use of EU resources in relation to the results of the intervention.

The evaluation assessed the intervention using the six standard DAC evaluation criteria: relevance, coherence, efficiency, effectiveness, sustainability, and impact perspectives. Additionally, the evaluation applied an EU-specific criterion: the EU added value.

The objective of the assignment was to strengthen change and knowledge management at the SADC Secretariat through assessment of opportunities and threats to change and development of tools to implement and monitor change and knowledge management.

The purpose of the Contract was to provide technical assistance to the SADC Secretariat aimed at strengthening change management and institutional capacity for identification, storage, management and preservation of knowledge in the implementation of the Regional Indicative Strategic Development Plan (RISDP) and Strategic Indicative Plan for the Organ (SIPO).

The Satellite Index Insurance for Pastoralists in Ethiopia (SIIPE) programme offered a weather-index microinsurance to pastoralists households in the Somali region of Ethiopia, conditional on their participation in public works under the Government of Ethiopia’s Productive Safety Net Programme (PSNP), to mitigate the impact of drought on their livelihoods.

This final evaluation of SIIPE covers the period from 2019 to 2022 and aims to identify the changes at beneficiary level induced by the programme in terms of protection against climate risk, behaviour, and well-being. It has the double purpose of accountabilty and learning and is expected to facilitate decision-making on improvement and scale-up of the intervention in the Somali region, potential replication in other regions, and resource mobilisation for similar programmes.

The evaluation covers the criteria of relevance, effectiveness, efficiency, impact, and sustainabiltiy employing a mixed methods approach. The quantitative approach has adopted a quasi-experimental design (matching) to compare beneficiary households in SIIPE neighbourhoods (kebeles) with similar households in kebeles outside the intervention areas, based on a large-scale household survey. Qualitative research methods include focus group discussions, key informant interviews, and in-depth interviews.
